i'm intending to make a fire sorc for the first time lol. preferably for PvM, and just enough for PvP

here's my intended gear:

25/-5 fire eschutas
maras amulet
shako with 5/-5 die fire facet
spirit monarch
5/-5 upped wyrmhide vipermagi
eth treks
spiders belt
magefist(no brainer :P)

as for the rings, i'm confused. FCR rings(very expensive, hard to get, i hate dupes too), 1 x raven frost and soj, or just dual sojs?

i know fire sorcs in PvP excel obscenely with 200 FCR, but i don't think i wouldn't need that kind of fcr. the gear i listed above(w/o FCR rings) is 140% FCR i think, which to me is pretty obscene already :P.

but i still need advice on certain gear...

- weapon
HOTO or eschutas? my total resists with the gear listed is not more than 200 which to me is bad :/. but eschutas well, add's a truckload of damage. and i'm not sure if i should go for damage or resist/defences?

- armour
the upped vipermagi adds lovely FCR, and maybe just -1 skill point less than CoH. should i go for coh or vipermagi, then would 110 FCR be enough at all for fireballing?

- helmet
shako with -5/5 jewel. i'm too poor to afford a godly fire sorc circlet so well, i think shako is the next best thing? correct me or advice me on it, and should i change it's socketed item.

- boots
eth treks is the next best thing i can think of other than war travs?

- rings
dual sojs, soj + raven frost, dual FCR rings, FCR ring + raven frost, FCR + soj?? how bout "cannot be frozen" attribute? should i put a cham rune in my helm?



as for the inventory, probably about 4 or 5 fire skillers, torch, anni and a couple of 20 life scs i guess.

second switch, would be CTA and lidless.


here's a slightly safe gear for my future fire sorc...

shako(umed)
CoH armour
maras ammy
hoto
spirit monarch
eth treks
spiders belt
soj
ravenfrost
magefist


comparing with these 2 sets, and adding the +skills from about 4 fire gcs, 1 storch and 1 anni....

how much fireball/meteor damage do you think i'll have?
which ones are ultimately better in PvM?
which ones are ultimately better in PvP?

if i choose the first gear set i reckon i have to buy lots of resists scs... and i hate those things lol, any advices?

and what's your recommended set for fire sorcs(of course omit those duped rare and socketed godly FCR/skill/resists/etc circlets :P)?

thanks.

i find 200 fcr fire sorcs to be one of the funniest builds out there... do you see how fast those chicks tele!?!?!?!?!11111

old 200fcr eshield/fire baller:

2-20-20 circ
5/5 wizzy
5/5 viper
+2/15fcr ammy (legit :uhhuh: )
spirit monarch
mages
fcr ring/fcr ring
arach
etreks

i believe i had max resists, i hit a high fhr bp, and had a nice mana/life pool to play with

good build

even better with 9x fire skillers + anni + torch (i had'm, i loved'm)

hooray fire sorcs!

Mine uses:
+3/25/-5 fire Eschutas (faceted)-also has perfect +20% light, just for the hell of it :lol: .
20/-5 Fireball Ormus
Spirit Monarch
Shako with 5/5 fire Facet
+2 fire/10FCR/resists crafted ammy
Arachnids
2x SoJs
Magefists
Sandstorm Treks
Torch
Anni
8x Fire GCs (7 with life and one plain)

My resists are NOT maxed. I opted for the damage route rather than safety, but that's just me. I usually party play with my friends, and since they mostly use melee chars, I'm usually safe. I have a HOTO and a CoH in my stash in case I feel the need for some extra resists.

if i go for these...

hoto
coh
shako(um)


instead of these...

eschutas
vipermagi(faceted)
shako(faceted)


which is better? go for resists or more damage?

what's the ideal decent FCR for fire sorc, and the ideal powerful FB and meteor damage?

thanks :)

You will need hoto, ds coh, arachnids, 1 soj 1 bk, maras, eth treks, spirit or pheonix i personally like pheonix for the -26 to fire res and redemption. you need anni and torch and as many fire gcs you can get

meh, made my fire sorc quite long time already :P. 200 FCR FBers are PvC killers, but i just love playing with hydras and meteors in the little empty inns in blood moor :P.
