I did a little searching and couldn't find one that really applies to me.

I'm looking for a sorc guide for light-based skills.

This is basically pvm for count runs and some rushing, etc.

Please help!

You don't need to use chain lightning, for countess or cows. unless you really want to. I always found that I killed fast enough with lightning and my mana never emptied like it occasionally did with chain lightning.

Well I do have a light sorc guide, but its the very first guide I ever written, links in my sig if you wish to use that,

Awesome that looks really good, man. But I do have one question, what's ES exactly? Hehe. I have a good idea I just want to be sure with this.

I guess I'm pretty new these days.

ES = Energy Shield.
It makes it so, when you take damage, you lose a percentage of mana instead of just life.

Yep, what I figured.

Thanks.

how does telekiness help es

If you have a 95% es, then 95% of damage received goes there. With at 20+ telekinesis that 95% is reduced by 25%. So for every 1 damage going to your mana you will only take .75

It's something like that, I haven't played in a while.

Can someone plz put a guide for a pvm lite sorc (not mf) for chaosing/baaling

Well imo, best weapon for a Light sorc, is just to Get an occy, and Socket it with a 5/5 Light Die Facet.

Why the **** doesn't anyone seem to get that? Occy has fcr, skills, mf, mana regen, and +all resistances. And after the 5/5 is Applied, well, it's a lot better than Eschuta's

Your dumb
Hoto>occy
By a long shot.

WOW there is no possible way you can out damage eschutas with a occy and no possible way to get more mana and resist unless you have hoto face it occy is outdated and garbage your even better off with a wizardspike

Awsome now i know hoto is better that occy...lol whats better es build or vita and are life lite gcs a must for pvm

Alright then, prove me wrong Mr. "BZS" Legend. Get a hoto, and an occy socketed with a 5/5 Lite Facet. Go around and duel someone, and see which is better.

Kids these days ...

I personally use a 5/5 Wizspike. Why? Kickass FCR/Res, and the 5/5 gives it a nice boost as well

One-Hand Damage: 18 To 42 (30 Avg)
Required Level: 42
Durability: 50
Base Weapon Speed: [10]
(Sorceress Only)
+3 To Sorceress Skill Levels
+5 To Mana After Each Kill
All Resistances +20
25% Chance To Cast Level 1 Teleport When Struck
+30% Faster Cast Rate
+20 To Vitality
+20 To Energy
+20% Enhanced Defense
50% Better Chance Of Getting Magic Items
(Only Spawns In Patch 1.09 or later)


Now What will be better for duels?
You decide


P.S That hoto can get 40 res.


Hoto beats it in Faster Cast Rate, Resistance, Increases max mana 15% thats very usefull.

Occy Does 25% change to teleport when hit, so your dueling a barb and you just do a random tele, ANYWERE....
yeah Just use hoto.

Um, if you ask me the hoto sounds better :)
