Need Guide for 200fcr Fb Sorc - Blizzard Sector

**PoTatoes** · 02-25-2007, 05:54 AM

I feel like a big noob right now, but anyone got gg guide for a 200fcr fb sorc?
*directs it to frater*

**Bartender** · 02-25-2007, 06:32 AM

Use anything you need to get to 200 fcr.
Vipermagi - 30
Magefists/ Trangs - 20
Hoto / eldritch - 40
Spirit - 35
Circlet - 20
Arach - 20
Fcr rings - 20
Ammy - 15+

There you go 200 fcr

Or

Tmc Mod - 200 fcr

**PoTatoes** · 02-25-2007, 06:33 AM

I also need frater's opinion on either vit or es

**FraterPerdurabo** · 02-25-2007, 06:39 AM

Next time, try the stickies

db_jynx has a really nice guide on this:
PVP 200FCR FB sorc by db_jynx

Don't bother with ES, since FCR gear makes you lost a lot of extra mana capablities (i.e. you cannot wear 2 SoJs, or Shako, which is goldy for ES sorcs), so go full VIT (obviously as much STR as you need for gear).

Magefists > Trang's, due to extra mana and +skill.
Eschuta vs. melee.
HOTO vs. casters.

That pretty much sums it up, don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions.

**PoTatoes** · 02-25-2007, 07:26 AM

I feel like a nerd -_- i just got back to d2. Do you recommend a 200fcr build for fb or do you think a basic build is better(non200fcr)..

They are 2 different kinds of sorcs with different styles of play =)

So up to you.

**Bartender** · 02-25-2007, 06:22 PM

Go 105 / es, much more life and due to sorc's breakpoints, 105 is fast enough.

But I don't suggest that if you're starting back up. It needs very expensive gear IE Btals, ~20 bmanas

**John** · 02-25-2007, 06:30 PM

what would be an expensive gear setup for a sorceress? along with the bmanas and btals, i have those pieces

**Bartender** · 02-25-2007, 07:12 PM

Here's a quick gear guide for 105 fcr fb sorc

Hoto
Btals
Fletch ammy
2 sojs
Magefists -- or use 2nd setup, frosties w/ spirit instead of SS
Storm shield
Wraith Bands, or any other good duped boot
Arach
Shako w/ ber, pruby, jah

18x bmanas torch anni, rest of inventory Fire GCS

This is a nice guide I just found, as you can see the gear choices are around the same, but I like more bmanas for a longer duel. d2jsp Forums -> ~#~ Tombman's Godly Fire Sorc Guide! ~#~

**1337-Orange** · 02-25-2007, 07:44 PM

I would so recommend the 200 fcr. I had a lot of fun with mine. Basically your to fast to touch (Except for those fcr hacking ****s) and all you do i tele spam, rinse and repeat. Gotta learn how to aim the Fb's though

**John** · 02-25-2007, 07:50 PM

does the armageddon fletch exist on ladder? I have only seen it on nonladder

**Bartender** · 02-25-2007, 08:48 PM

Yeah, you could send packets and get it to ladder, but get banned

**John** · 02-25-2007, 09:18 PM

what packets do i send?

**Ragnarhox** · 02-25-2007, 10:32 PM

Fletch is on ladder brought over from non-ladder when blizzard f*cked resetting ladder.

That guide sucks actually. Some of his choices for gear are really dumb, i.e. why would you use Storm and Btal? If you really want to go for high DR% and power against melee, use btal and Whitstan's for max block, however you will be losing a lot of mana.

A regular ES 105%FCR fire sorc would be:
Helm: Shako
Weapon: Eschuta / HOTO (same arguement as above)
Armor: CoH
Shield: Spirit
Gloves: Frostburns
Belt: Arach
Boots: Treks / WWs / crafted mana boots (up to you, Treks are nice for extra STR [be certain to get them eth so that they have a lower STR req], WWs are nice for more life and DEX if you're going for max block with Whitstan's setup, while mana boots are really hard to get hold of an are only for the really hardcore ES setups)
Rings: SoJs
Amulet: +2 sorc +15%FCR +mods (STR > mana > life > resi)

Skills:
20 Telekinesis
1 Teleport
rest into Fire skills

Precast staff (essential part of your sorc):
+x Energy Shield (so that you won't have to use an assload of skill points to get it)
+x of the Cold Armors
+x other mods, i.e. Enchant for Team duels.

That's about it. Injoy.

**PoTatoes** · 02-26-2007, 12:30 AM

Hmm thanks guys. Tmc is unreliable cause sometimes they just lag your teles instead of the faster caste rate. Can some confirm that tmc actually works though?

Also would wizzys work in the 200fcr build

**John** · 02-26-2007, 02:36 AM

wizzys would work, fcr, resists, mana regen :)

**PoTatoes** · 02-26-2007, 02:48 AM

I was asking frater -_-

**John** · 02-26-2007, 02:53 AM

what about a 20/20 fire Jmod as shield?
