Sorc. Question

[TOJG49ers81]

Ok I have a question. I'm building an ice sorc. and first off I want to ask how many skill points does it take to max out a certain skill? i was thinking about using frozen orb or blizzard as my main attack. answers and suggestions would really help thanks.

20 to max, and both orb and blizz are good, but under blizz check out what it gets bonusses from. Maxe blizz and the bonus-givers, then ull be an uber good ice sorce. Also, you want energy shield and static field from lightning as well, but Its all up to you, those are just good is all.

yeah ice sorcies aren't bad, friend has an 82 mf ice that does meph in just under a minute, you definitely wanna use blizzard, and i think it's icebolt that he uses 2ndary but hey... yeah use blizzard and of course tele! !

if ur goin for the mf/pvm side of things bliz is good if not orb is ... id also suggest putting a few skills into either a lightning or fire skill for those pesky immune to cold monsters

[Icehawk007]

Cold is obviously the best in hell simply because it reduces the resistance of monsters (cold mastery), compared to other elements of fire. Fire and Light may have a much higher damge, but you have to remember that in hell most monsters are taking 50% or less damage. I would suggest using a weapon switch for mana shield because it has a many presquisits. I would suggest moderate MF and cow runs because there are soo many cows sumthing good is bound to drop, and cows aren't usually immune to cold. With Glacial spike to freeze the cows and blizzard max w/ synergies you will mow the cows down.

alright man, you wanna max all the synergies for blizzard and orb and 1 point to warmth that is the best build of all for a cold sorc

hmmm...

i think jus go 4 bliz orb adn hydra<or fire wall///fire ball>

dont use magefist if ur a cold sorc it dosent help much

[Eternal_Light]

lol yea dont use magefist if ur a cold sorc =)

[dragonXX]

SEEE he agreesLOL

[Drederick]

Dude, there's nothing wrong with magefists on a cold sorc. The glove adds to mana regen and an extra point in warmth. Also, the faster cast rate is nice for teleporting.

mages are for fire(duhh)

What are you on??? Either Blizz and full synergies OR frozen orb for a Meteorb sorc. As it is he is asked for a COLD SORC, which implies Blizz and full synergies. Read the post more carefully.

Oh and magefist is very good for any sorc.
