Hi, even if I am not interested in enchantress, I can tell you that your life is ultra-low. You should either go ES route (I think many encantresses go this way) or you should pump vita instead of dex (or str). Personally I think you will need to rebuild :/ .

I agree with PapirovyCert that your life is on the low side. If you followed the guide in the sticky in this forum, you'll read that Enchantresses should aim for at least 900-1000 life before entering hell.

I've always loved the harle myself, you already have one for pre-buffing, I'd keep it on if I were you. The high life will help you survive and the mana will let you teleport longer. Also grants you 45% PDR combined with storm while fade is not active.

You are using 4 out 5 items from the disciple set. I'd understand if you put on the full set, but the set-bonus for wearing four items is extremely crappy, considering the sacrifices you have to make.

Kick out those boots and toss off that amu, get Natalya's boots if you're resist-hungry or Aldur's for the life + fire resist. Cow King's boots might also be very useful for their mf/dex/fire damage (which works nice with enchant). Of course, Waterwalk helps a lot too. Way too many good boots to try on!

As for your amulet: good rares remain on top and mara's/tal's are great too. Try gambling/crafting some amulets and see if a nice +2 sorc or +2 fire with good resists will spawn.

You can keep your gloves on of course, but don't drool too much over the +350% ED to demons. The added damage is only over the physical part of your attack, I believe, not really that much.

You didn't mention where you made passion in, so I'm not sure what IAS-amount you need.

Don't forget your FHR. Without FHR a sorc should NEVER get into melee range. Sorcs have a horrible base FHR (17 if I recall correctly). The enchant-guide also mentions this, but your gear has none! Try to squeeze in a little, it'll help a lot.

Finally: You didn't list your mercenary either, but I'd suggest you take a holy freeze one. Slows the enemies down and takes off the heat from you. You'll never get the life of a BO-barb or good druid (unless you use beast of course), so always be careful when entering a pack of monsters, let your merc do that while you pick off the enemies on the side of the pack.

Use teleport a lot!

1) Why the 18 lightning mastery? You don't have Dream x2 (which is what it's usually for, getting 45,000 lightning damage), so the 18 points are probably a waste. Are you planning to get the shield/helm in the future?

2) You'll probably have to rebuild for this, but eshield/telekinesis is really helpful. As an enchantress, you won't be using your mana for anything else and you have insane regen from warmth, so you might as well use it for some extra life.

3) Skill is key with an enchantress. Even doing an average of 50,000+ per hit, I have to use some strategic teleporting to keep myself out of danger. Your attack, while powerful, only hits a single target at once. So you want to hit them from the edge of a group, where only one enemy can swing back at you.

4) 160 strength is an absolute waste of points better spent in vitality/energy (depending on eshield/vitality choice). Your physical damage is tiny in comparison to your elemental damage, so don't bother increasing it.

5) If you can afford the Dream runewords, get them. It's not a true enchantress, but adding 20,000 average lightning damage per hit really helps you survive. Between that and your fire damage, you should be able to kill any non-boss monster in one hit, so they aren't going to be living long enough to hit back.

Possible solution would be to get a might merc and dracul's grasp. Hopefully, your physical damage would allow you to leech enough. Otherwise, a holy freeze merc for slow and your CtC spells should stop the enemies.

i have full of light charms in stash so that my light damage increase, i have the possibility to get dream. But im not sure what gear which is best. If a use dracs gloves, dream shield, delerium helm, but will the auras stack ot which does stay.

I need advice in best gear, not only highest damage. I i wanted to be able kill not onlt fire or light monstes.


Maybe switch out light charms agaisnt life sc.

If you use Dream, use both shield and helm. The auras stack (a special case of auras granted by items), giving you a level 30 total. This way more than doubles the damage.
