Why don't people Like Blizzard Sorceresses Any More?

[metalicagrl89]

Why don't people make blizzard sorceresses any more? I mean, why is everyone making a light, fire or orb sorc? lightning isn't as fun and is a gamble, fire is brute power, and why be an orb sorc since blizzard sorc is in the same element but does more damage. mad:

blizzard misses too much, thats the only reason
orb > blizz in pvp, it misses much less and does more total dmg

[Hp~Kp]

mm.. blizz. it makes it hard to kill cause it only hits one area. hard to pvp.

[crossy]

kicks ass when you are doing mf runs IMO

u = izi noob, k?


Blizz is more popular than orb on europe but on east people use 15/70s making 95 es and orb a better option.

NL + Blizz is one the godliest combos, thats why Blizz sorcs with AA are unbeatable.

sorb+stacked resi lol.

Too slow for my taste

orb hits like 3-4 times more often than blizz making the damage about equal. and you guys do know that orbs shown damage is per shard right? the orb itself does a lot more than is shown.

[omgbbq]

because light sorc is good for mmbot, and the rest of the classes except for blizzard are good for duels. but blizzard is good if u have start d2 from scrap.

[Ares]

why use a low dmg attack with a high chance of missing and a slow casting attack when you can rape up a 200 casting fireball... double dmg.. or a 50k+ light sorc with mad cast.. almost all sorcs>blizz

[Arc]

blizz just plain sucks, orb is the way to go

[Ares]

well not really orb doesnt have that big of a range... fire,Light>evrything

Well, Blizz sorcs are quite powerful vs a Windy, but Orb sorcs are just so weak. Cyclone armor is not affected by -%cr so you can take like at least 5 Orbs before you'll have to recast.

Never been beaten by an Orb sorc, it's as impossible to lose as vs FoH.

Blizz kills in 2 hits a 0% sorb 7k life barb while orb takes about 5-6 hits and you must seriously be retarded to tele into a slow moving orb. Orb only hits more often when you are uncoordinated with your teles otherwise you only get hit by single shards that are easily tankable. The thing that makes orb sosos popular is not the fact that it's easier to play, it's the fact that you can easily get 95% es without precast.

...apparently i need to specify cause people like to assume they know everything. i'm talking about pvm. pvp with any sorc other than fire is stupid

...apparently i need to specify cause people like to assume they know everything. i'm talking about pvm. pvp with any sorc other than fire is stupid

and once again im going to disagree ... fire is not the best pvp for a sorc...we have talked about this many times in countless topics... lightning is just as good as fire... light=fire>orb blizz and orb would be better for pvm just better to use and you can accualy hit everything on the screen but blizz well... some fast unit can just run off.. and for pvp about blizzard i just dueled a blizz sorc i would stand there and wait for her to cast bizz then i would move and im safe... there is no way they can possibly hit someone

[FeNiXSuNfIrE]

id rather blizz than any other sorc for mf, i can kill hell mephy in 2 blizzards...enuf said. with mf u dont need to mass kill, if u need to do that orb is a better option because its area of effect is much larger.....but im pure mf. blizz is where its at

[Ares]

ouch really 2 blizzards kill meph and what about andy.. since she moves so damn much its hard to take her.. well anyway my light sorc takes everything within a few hits.. light sorc is the best pvm period... there is no argument there

Naw, it's more like fire>cold>light.

Light is probably the worst. Yes, Blizzard is easily avoidable, but high skilled duelers handling a cold sorc are much more dangerous than highskilled light sorcs. Light is actually very easily avoidable as well, because you see it from far away.
