Blizzard Sector » Diablo II » Character Development » Sorceress » what is best [ POLL ]

Sorceress One of the rebellious women who have wrested the secrets of magic use from the male dominated Mage-Clans of the East, the Sorceress is an expert in mystical creation ex nihilo. Though somewhat lacking in the skills of hand-to-hand combat, she compensates for this with fierce combative magics for both offense and defense.

all life so u can just use max dmg fcr items. when you try to balance huge mana with fcr and resists and damage, something is usually lacking, in most cases your fcr or kill damage. my 7k mana sorc only did 14k fireball, there was never enough room for more damage. all vita

I would say ES even though your DMG is way lower but you will last longer.
Cuz you can reach 7k+ mana really ez.
But... Most battles don't really last that long. So you will blast away with your FB's and such and when they touch you, you can out live it, cuz without ES your most likely to die in one-three hits anyway.
But with ES you can take like 7 maybe and be able to get away and let your warmth re-heal your mana pool.
Even though some people will say BM!!! BM!!!!!
But you vs a 200 fcr fire sorc the other sorc is more likely to win.
So it can even out..

ES is good for 105%FCR, and max block if you want to.
If you are going 200% FCR, you won't go for either max block or ES, due to the massive mana loss.

Both are good. For all around, I'd say that ES is better all-around, although some really good sorcs have told me that in SvS, full VIT build beats ES.

Your welcome, On sorc vs sorc though the best is a 200fcr Fire sorc, "Hands down"
They don't use ES cuz the lack of FCR and dmg.

There is no major difference in damage between ES and full VIT builds.

What is the damage of 105 fcr ES build?
What is the damage of 200 fcr no ES build?

Then I can agree on it. lol

I cannot tell you that it's just from experience with me dueling them on my BvC they tank a lot but I still manage to kill them except for the very experienced ones they are way harder and it takes more time to kill them.

With es when your mana is drained to zero, the delay for it to replenish enough for mana is an easy time for the opponent to finish you off. Even so I voted for ES. Mana *** isnt bm is it? lol

Pouring points into telekinesis would mean I lose points from another skill, for it requires hard skill points. Not everybody puts points into telekinesis. And it is not my style of playing. Sorry that my post cause you to curse at me.

Sorry I am a noob.

I am lacking in the required post count on this site to post a URL. I am sorry that I did not know this and I will make an effort to correct this.
