Lightning sorc for Classic Hell?

[Ballisto]

I'm building a lightning sorc. I have a shard and magefists to eventually give to her. How viable a build is this for Hell? It seems less monsters are lightning immune than anything else. I see her eventually clearing out CS and Hell cows for items.

Yes lightning sorcs are great and a lot of fun. They can clear hell cs, minus the lightning immunes so your gonna need orb as a backpu if you truly want to solo

Dont go with energy shield

You have 2 choices in terms of gear, 120 fcr (fragile but kills way faster) or 80 fcr (boring, survives better, kills slower)

As you can imagine i prefer 120 fcr

Heres the basic setup

Shard
magefist
eyeless
2X fcr rings w/ resist and ideally lots of mana
+ sorc fcr resist ammy

This gets you to 120 fcr. If your poor, dont worry about not having + sorc on your ammy, as you build up wealth and get to higher lvl you will accumilate it.

I would get at least 30 fhr, ideally 42% for this sorc.

Twitch (to compensate for low block on WOE)
Ithara helm, tarn, or fhr resist helm
Fhr resist belt

Here's the gear I have at my disposal. Most of its on my lvl 70 Meteorb.

Tarnhelm
Goldskin
Goldwrap
Bladebuckle (30 fhr there, great for tping)
Nightsmoke
Treads of Cthon
Shard
Fists
Chance Guards
2 nagelrings
prismatic sorc ammy w/ mana, life (no fcr though)

Whats a good trade for eyeless?
