How? (noob question)

[swanny708]

K, so I was wondering how people get their blizz dmg so high? I used a hero planner and found that even at lvl like 30, with all its bonus skills at 20, blizz only did a few thousand dmg. But I see people doing like 10k, so I was wondering how this is done...

[Espada]

Nightwing w/ Cold die facet
CoH or Blizz Ormus but Coh is preferred
Death Fathoms w/ Cold Die Facet
Arachnids Sash or Snowclash
+2 Sorc 20%fcr amulet or a +3 Cold with good mods
Spirit Monarch
Magefist/Trangs
9x Cold Gcs
Sorc Torch
Anni

You should be doing way over 10k with that setup

[swanny708]

So basically just tons of gear with +skills?

[SilverTears]

Yes, just the right gear and the right skill points used.

Is there a guide for a blizz sorc?
Preferably mf...

yah of course, look in the guide section for a blizz guide (you could always modify it to a mf build)

or go to d2jsp.org, they have a bunch of guides over there

[Darksin]

Yea, just dont go and build the first one you see. Take some time to read a few of them so you can compare and contrast them. Many people post builds that aren't very good. So, just make sure you get one from a person who knows what they are talking about i.e. Frater Perdurabo

So what would be some good mf gear for a blizz sorc?
Keep in mind i'm extremely poor... which is clearly why i made this char

[Zyclo]

How poor? how many hrs do you have? a god blizz sorc with all perfect is really expensive...

[Nex]

my blizz sorc does 10k damage with everything darkyo said to use but i dont have to use than many gc'sto get 10k dmg and i wear hoto because i cant afford a fathom.

No hrs...
My gear is stuff i've found... or someone has given to me which is rare
I have like

400 d 1os shako I found (not uniq)
duriel's shell (found)
x2 Nagel Rings (gift)
war travs (gift... I got very lucky)
chancies (same as war travs)
uniq jade bong staff like +2 skills 20fcr (found)
10fcr ammy (found)

lvl 45.... 1k dmg

[Joshy]

You can get up to 16k blizz damage but you need massive skill and +cold skill damage gear which greatly reduces fhr and fcr bps.

[swanny708]

We've already established that, but thanks

Additional Comment:
Ok, so I got a shako, dsnigma, 40travs, perfect chancies, +2skills +5attributes ammy, hoto, x2 nagelrings, but i'm still only doing around 2.5, and glacial spike, cold mastery, and blizz are maxed
What's the deal?

[Nex]

max out ice blast and ice bolt they also give bonus, also wear sojs
