Since you already have 95 FCR, you should try and aim for the next FCR breakpoint 105. Most orbers don't base their FCR on frozen orb, but on teleport. Teleport plays a major role in a orber, just like any other sorceress, if you can't orb and teleport away immediately you are pretty much dead. A decent orber can annihilate a game even if your opponents have absorb gears on, you just got to play quick against them. Making sure they can't namelock you. I would switch your enigma dusk shroud to a vipermagi, and magefist for a frostburn. In my opinion, I would put about 100-150 points of vitality and rest in energy. I could be wrong since I am not familiar with orbers. Most of the orbers I come across with have energy shield with a huge amount of mana so they does not die easily, and like I have mentioned, they orb and teleport away before you could namelock them, making it a quite diffcult battle if you are not careful. Oh also, I would switch out your small charms for 20 life/17 mana ones, if you can afford them.

Well, 105%FCR is a must have for PvP.

Enigma isn't all that needed, all you need is:
Nightwing
DF
Viper
Spirit
Mages
2xSoJ
Arach

So there you have 20% from Mages, 20% from DF, 35% from Spirit and 20% from Arach => 105%


Bump this thread, I'll try to write the rest of it tomorrow.

Orb sorcs aren't really PvP characters. Mostly it's Blizzers that have 1 point in Orb and use it to last hit when opponent is low on health.
Light sorc > Orb sorc

I messed that one up a little initially, so make sure you read through all the posts in that thread, especially the last 2.

thanks im going to go with a light sorc. the only thing is i dont knwo so mcuh a bout them.i know i want to use ES, and 117 FCR will not be a prop for me to hit,neither will the 86 FHR.the main thing i done understand is the whole ES and via ratio,but i saw that u said over 2k life is an over kill so jsut aim for that..?and then have around 5K mana? one mroe question then i think ill be good mags or frostburns? and coh or nig { i can get max res with out the 65 form coh } but is coh still best?
thanks for all the help man

ALL ES sorcs use Frostburns. 40% extra mana is awesome. Also, that's why you use 2 SoJs, 50% extra mana.

CoH or Enigma, up to you. I'd go for CoH, I think.
