i just got the game 2 days ago so stay with me. I have a lvl 19 barbarian but im gonna make sorc for the ranged attacks. I need help as to which sorc to make, I want to be able to run around and not have to aim(hehe..). Ive seen videos where people run around casting white stuff(just started game dunno name) every direction and getting nasty xp and kills. I think its blizzard or ice sorc, but i want it to be good for raising it to a high level not necessarily PvP. Can someone point me in the right direction as to which sorc to make and what skills to lvl up. help plz.

try a blizz sorc... their the best for starting out....
max<<----
blizzard
glacial spike
iceblast
cold mastery
put 1 pt into--->
telekinesis
static
frozen armor
teleport
warmth
the skills needed to activate blizzard
finish by maxing-->
ice bolt to fully synergize blizzard.
as for cold immunes....
**** them.
just use the moat trick and kill mephisto over and over again until he drops useful magic find items.
heres a diagram of the moat trick
XXX <--- mephisto
-------------- <--moat part
-------------- <---moat part
X <----you
basically you lead mephisto over to the moat, then telport far away from mephisto ,across the moat and then you fire blizzard at him until he dies... he cannot hit you. obviously once he dies go and collect your drops...
as for some poor blizz gear, here it is:
helm: +2 to sorc skills circlet... or possibly a peasent crown
armor: vipermagi armor is pretty cheap
weapon: occy is pretty cheap, someone might give you one free
ammy: +2 to sorc skills ammy
shield: lidless, rhyme, or spirit (if your starting on ladder, reccommended)
rings: 2 +10% fcr rings
belt: nightsmoke, goldwrap..... arach or snowclash for later on..
gloves: magefists
boots: low % mf wartravs or just some resist boots
as for the stats
str: enough for your gear
dex: none
vit: all rest
energy: probly 100-150 since your poor
inventory: resist charms that give resistance to a single element...

1 do u have to aim at each individual monster when using blizzard or do they go everywhere.
2 damagewise frozen orb > blizzard OR blizzard > Frozen Orb
