---------------------
II. Skill Point Allocation
---------------------

For those who are impatient here we goÂ…

[20 Max] Blizzard (Right Click)
[20 Max] Glacial Spike (Left Click - Synergy)
[20 Max] Cold Mastery
[20 Max] Ice Blast (Synergy)
[20 Max] Ice Bolt (Synergy)
[1] Teleport
[1] Warmth *1
[1] Static Shock
[1] Shiver Armor *2

*1 Some say that Warmth is a must, even at just one point. The 30% mana regeneration is just too good to pass up. Some others say max it, and some just say leave it be. Personally, I think it is good with just 1 skill point. I will leave it up to you, however.

*2 Same as Warmth. You can do without it, but it can save you every now and then. Well worth the 2 skill points in my mindÂ… I will also leave it up to you, however.

This is a total of 107 skill points. With the quests and the leveling it is possible to be done at level 95. At level 80 with good equipment and skill placement you still will still be a force to be reckoned with, however.

---------------------
III. Stat Point Allocation
---------------------

Strength: Enough for the highest requirement or 97 (for skullders), nothing more.

Dexterity: Enough for the requirements and 75% block. Unless you go for no blocking, then you just go for the requirement on the items you use.

Vitality: Anything you can spare goes here; you should have a great deal invested in the department. Vitality is life, literally.

Energy: There are a lot of things people say about this, I myself think base 75. This gives you a bit of mana to throw around. DonÂ’t go any higher however. Some people may say put none in, thatÂ’s fine also. Do as you wish, I leave it up to you.

In the beginning you will be tempted to dump tons of stat points into Energy, do not do this. Stop at 75, at most! You can do three things to help you with mana in the early stages.

1) Mana Potions
2) Mana Leech
3) Mana Regeneration Items

---------------------
IV. Gear
---------------------

This gear is for the people who are not insanely rich, but do have some money to throw around.

Magic Finding Gear
---------------------

Helm: Shako PTopzÂ’d
Armor: Skullders PTopzÂ’d
Weapon: Wizard Spike
Shield: Lidless
Switch Weapon: Gull Dagger
Switch Shield: Rhyme Runeword (Shael+Eth)
Boots: War TravelerÂ’s
Gloves: Chance Guards
Belt: Gold Wrap
Amulet: MaraÂ’s
Rings: 2x Nagel, or SoJÂ’s
Charms: 7% smfcs or MF charms (lower MF charms can really add up)

Another possible combination is TalÂ’s Armor, Amulet, and Belt. The partial bonuses really help a lot. DonÂ’t forget charms can add up, stack up on smfcs of any %.

---------------------
V. Game Play
---------------------

Levels 1-25

This is where most people struggle, myself one of them. I just equip a melee weapon (Gull Dagger, Khalims Will) and start whacking and hacking my way through enemies. Level to 16 in Act 1, at level 16 do Sewer runs until 18. Then proceed to Arcane Runs, do them until level 21. After that go to Trav Runs until level 24. Fly through normal and get to Ancients. At level 25 you can start Baal Runs.

Level 25-50

Baal Runs, Baal Runs, Baal Runs, and more Baal Runs. I suggest staying until level 50. You will really see an increase in power of your spells. Your sorceress should be a big part of every run.

Level 50-75

Power through Nightmare and grab a friend to help with Ancients. You can Baal Run here until level 75. Your skills really will be heating up here, (or cooling down rather :P) enjoy it!

75+

You can get some levels from Hell Baal in an 8 player game. With the right equipment you should be able to tackle Mephisto and Pindleskin (which will both provide experience). From here on, really enjoy your character.

I needed to edit that. Change out GSpike for Ice Blast. Use that on left click instead of GSpike.
