BvC vs Blizz Sorc Problems

[junglejunkie]

Most blizz sorcs are pretty easy, but i've run into a couple that are freakin unbeatable.. also, some BM blizz sorcs that TG like it's their job.

a couple questions:

1) i've heard that vs. blizz, sorb works differently, right? like it doesn't trigger on the first shot or something.. could someone please explain this to me? does it work differently than orb?

2) vs. BM FB sorcs, i can just put on spurs/noko and go crazy.. is there a similar setup vs. BM blizz?

3) for the GOOD blizz sorcs with ES/block that sit in their blizzes, is the best way to deal with them the same way i'd deal with a hammerdin? leap or widowmaker them out of their fields?


thanks!

Stack on 2 Raven frost to ensure you can take more than 2 hits. Pot on Thawing potions.

U can res stack vs bliz as there attack, well the mastery, cold mastery pierces resistance which means they can hit with the equivelent of -200+ cold res that why the attack is so damaging. But if u res stack most will complain as in this case res stack> abs.

yeah hot spurs + noko amu will help u hit max res easily + a dwarf star if u wanna go the extra length, even with the dwarf star + hot spur boots will net u 90 fire res and 20% abs.

yeah leap + Widow work well also try not to be predictable while moving and never stay in the same spot too long, what i tend to do is move on foot (never in a straight line etc i.e predictable movements) and use tele etc to move arround so my moves can not be so predictable. I dont tend to do much chasing as some tend to do the trick that they lead u into a bliz attack etc so for these uses Widow more.

What exactly is your definition of a BM fire sorc and a BM blizz sorc? It sounds to me you've replaced BM for characters that beat you and you require a gear switch for.

BM blizz sorcs: towngaurd with blizzes, then run back into town.

BM FB sorcs: same with meteor/FB spam.

i don't mind being beaten.. i'm learning and i expect it. getting ***'d, however, is a completely different matter.
