[MadCowBoy]

Hi guys!Hope u've all seen my whirlwind barbarian guide!This is my second guide!In someways,I think Sorceress is the best PVP character!Of course it's ur choice to choose touse sorceress or not!This sorceress is mainly for PVP!But in someways,it could be an extremem monster killing machine!I have my high lvl sorceress in Us West ladder,I've been killing spree,until I and found that sometimes,PVP is more exciting to play!This sorceress we are making today is a pure cold and lightning sorceress!It can kill easily!

STAT POINT DISTRIBUTION:
Stength:juz enough for gear(gear for sorceress won't use too much strength,so could be lower)
Dexterity:juz enough for blocking(U must have at least 95 for blocking)

Lightning Mastery:20 pointsSynergy for Thunderstorm)
Teleport:1 point(Let u teleport around instead of running around)
Warmth:1 point(It can get ur mana boosting every second,then u will have no worries of losing mana)
Shiver Armour:1 point(A skill with lots of defense bonus)
Energy Shield:1 points(A life saver for sorceress,it makes mana as ur shield,but equipted with ur items,having lots of attack coming,ur mana is still enough to block them for u!)
Chain Lightningfor PVM)20 points(max this last)(This is a great skill for PVM,and really good against lots of monsters!)

MECENARY:

CONCLUSION:
Hope u guys like this guide!When u get ur sorceress to 90 lvl or up,u can solo in hell,but with caution.Then hope ur sorceress can get to be killing spree!Good Luck!:)

using all "1" items from ur sorc u have 40% faster cast. i hope u can either do either a: massive dmg and pierce that doesnt require u to move much. or b: dodge very well despite the fact that ur sorc is very slow.

Seeing as how this guide blows compared to the barb one (That you didnt right yet still claim as your own) I think you actually wrote this one. Btw, Id use Eschutas over Hoto and also a griffons....
Oh ya Spirit owns ss or lidless, If you desperately want cant be frozen use a rhyme.

Why would any1 use steel shade helm for a merc ?
