Lightning Es Sorceress

[Zpliffman]

Hi,
I am making a Lightning Es Sorceress. Now i was wondering if you guys could give me some input on my gear and skills and charms.

My Gear:

Helm: Shako 5/5 light rbf
Armour: Vipermage (um) or should I use CoH? If so what armour.
Gloves: Frostburn
Weapon: Hoto 40, wiz, eschuta
Belt: Archnid
Shield: Lidless (Sur)
Boots: Silkweave
Amu: Tal
Rings: Sojs
SWitch cta lidless

Charms:

I have an anni 18/20 and 10 light skillers and the rest i will do 5% resis sc to max my resis


Now my main problem is the weapon Which would be more suitable?

My skills would be

Max:

Telekenis
Charged bolt
Chain lightning
Warmth
Lightning mastery


Rest:
Thunder
teleport
and pre sk


Thanks

If you can get access to CoH, there's not really much of a reason to use Vipermagi. The best armour for it would either be a Dusk Shroud or Archon Plate. Also, a Griffon's might work better than Shako, but I'm not sure...

Instead of Chain Lightning, might you consider max Lightning? That turns Charged Bolt into a usable attack, and Lightning can still be used against specific targets (shamans, OKs etc).

Nice I'm trying to do the same

Only comments on your skill placement...

Where's ES, you're building a ES/Light sorc...
TK should be maxed
Charged Bolt also
Chain Lightning... Dunno, try replacing that with just Lightning
Warmth... I looked into this, but 1 point is enough, and maybe some spares can be inserted here.
Lightning mastery should be maxed...

So the thing I would max =
TK
CB
Lightning
Light Mastery
ES 7+

You're getting a bit short on damage then a full light sorc, that's why I planned to drop the weapon and change it for an Unique Knout for the lvl 15 nova charges. (Makes 3k max light dmg difference in the end)

Hi, I will change my armour to CoH, but i still dont know what weapon to use. I have a hoto 40 resis and a eschuta 20% +3 so i am kind of lost.

The shako I take for life and mana + the 2 skills while griffon only has some lightning dmg % and -% with 1 skill, is that really worth it?

I will max lightning and tk

Unique Knout??? What is that?
