Sorc Build for tkey/hkey/meph runs? - Blizzard Sector

**Anti-Hero** · 03-28-2006, 08:49 PM

What is the best sorc build for Tkey, Hkey, and Meph runs MF? A guide would be great, I already know gear but skillwise I need help, thanks guys. And keep in mind I'm probably only going to lvl her to 85.

**Bartender** · 03-28-2006, 11:06 PM

Lightning sorc, theres guides everywhere just look one up.

**MasteroftheMoon** · 03-28-2006, 11:40 PM

Go for lightning, w/ an infinity merc it'll just go quicker and possibly can go dkey runs.

**Blackfoxx417** · 03-28-2006, 11:49 PM

isnt Nithlik immune to lightning tho? i always thought he was...but of course im probably wrong.

**MasteroftheMoon** · 03-29-2006, 12:16 AM

I've only ran into him w/ Lightning immue only once out of how many times i've done runs against him between the day 1.11 came out and the day i quit.

Yes, he is, but if you read the first post he wasn't going to run Nihlathak.

I'd go with lightning, I made a guide somewhere in here...

**Anti-Hero** · 03-29-2006, 01:26 AM

So Ok I'll make a lightning sorc so this is what I'm thinking but I need help:

Skills
20 Charged Bolt
20 Lightning
20 Chain Lightning
20 Light Mastery
1 Static Field
1 Teleport
1 Warmth

Stats
Str: Enuf for gear
Dex: Base
Vit: Rest
Ene: 100 (Don't know if it should be more or less? help!)

Gear:
Helm: Shako with Ptopaz
Ammy: Tals Ammy (Combine for more MF)
Armor: Tals Armor (Combine for more MF)
Belt: Tals Belt (Combine for more MF)
Boots: War Travs
Rings: Nagels
Weapon 1: Occy
Shield 1: Lidless
Weapon 2: Gull Dagger (MF)
Shield 2: Rhyme Shield (MF)

So thats what I think I'm gonna do, what do you guys think? I really need help on if I should put more than 100 Energy or not guys? Help me please!

~~Shift~~ · 03-29-2006, 01:28 AM

No, leave energy at base, you only need 100 base energy if you are an ES sorc for the extra mana for the ES drain.

**MasteroftheMoon** · 03-29-2006, 01:30 AM

If your gonna put Energy up to 100 might as well get energy shield, either than that it seems useless to put points into Energy.

Maybe get 1 point into shiver armor and/or put points into Nova since it is a preq. for Lightning.

**Phallock** · 03-29-2006, 01:40 AM

I would put one into the first cold armor, too. Then as you pick up an incidental level into nova (but yeah, nova last). And whether or not Nih is light immune or not, there are almost always tons of light immunes on the way to him. If you do want to run it, you will definitely be wanting the Infinity merc.

**Anti-Hero** · 03-29-2006, 02:01 AM

OK, What kind of merc should I get? holy freeze with insight right?

**MasteroftheMoon** · 03-29-2006, 02:02 AM

Insight or Infinity Definance/Might merc

Yes, but if you could get an infinity that would be better.

**ggkthx** · 03-29-2006, 06:07 AM

Light sorc w/ defiance or holyfreeze merc =)

if you want to do all key runs... your best option would be a WC barb because their cast rate is the same as sorc's and none of the bosses are immune to WC barb =)

he has random mods..he is randomly immune to from 0-2 elements

**Anti-Hero** · 03-29-2006, 08:58 PM

Whats the price of a Infinity and an Insight on USEast Ladder?

~~Shift~~ · 03-29-2006, 09:00 PM

Infinity is Ber + Mal + Ber + Ist, plus the Eth CV or CA, I'd say 4hr's.
Insight is all low runes, you can get that for less than a pul.

**Anti-Hero** · 03-29-2006, 09:08 PM

Haha well insight it is, I'm not poor but I'm not that rich lol considering my gear for this sorc is relatively cheap.

~~Shift~~ · 03-29-2006, 09:13 PM

If you are going to use a light sorc for mfing, you should just use mm.BOT, get rich alot faster, thats what i did.

**Anti-Hero** · 04-04-2006, 08:39 PM

I havent found a sequence for a light sorc yet, know any shift?
