Can cold mastery break cold immune monsters?
I'm about to do a purte blizz sorc for mf'ing, and i want pure blizz so that i can do some pvp if i get bored with her :P
but then there is cold immune's.. so can cm break them? that would own ^^
and also what gear should I use? im not very rich atm so hehe.. ;P
and what merc? act 2 defensive makes little sense when i use blizz..
thx in advance

nope, you cant kill immunes, im sry :)

for merc, would suggest the holy freeze merc, always comes in handy ;)

Sidenote:

You can break some immunities with a lower resist charges wand or an infinity staff that gives you conviction.

But since cold immunities have insane resistances, it's by far not worth to go that road.

Get a might merc to help with the immunes. Hook him up with some life leech and a good dmging pole and you're good to go!

Only if this was 1.07 ;)

Huh? If you get him decent eq (nothing godly, maybe like guillaume's, bonehew and a good def. armor) he'll survive a lot. A ton more if you give him reaper's toll. Also help him with telekinesis to stun, you got nothing better to do vs. immunes anyway unless you're dual tree.

Give your merc an Infinity weapon and dump some points into Cold Mastery & you should be good to go.

since u indicated that u are not very wealthy, infinity seems a bit day dreamish to me. i agree with buffing ur merc with decent gear. one pt into static field can help ur merc with the cold immunies too :)

Didn't you read my post? Cold immuuns are near impossible to break in Hell, what good would such an expensive weapon be to a cold sorc then?

Yeah but one point in static field makes it a multiple tree sorc. Might as well sink one point into warmth and a few more points in the lightning tree
(I find 1 point CL, 1 point TS and 1 point LM very helpfull to kill CI's in Hell, given enough +skills)

Every sorc should have 1 teleport, 1 static and 1 warmth, otherwise it's not a proper sorc, that doesn't make it a dual tree :wink3:

I've always played with teleport/energyshield and one or two offensive skills.
Not always with static and warmth, but when I include those, I include shiver armor as well.

But a single tree sorc only uses 1 tree, as the name says, it's exactly the point to use a strategy that doesn't require skills from other trees, else what would be the point in naming it single tree?

You can make a pure Blizzard mfer (indicates your offensive skill, not a tree), but not a pure cold mfer (indicates a tree, no hard skill at all allowed from other trees, thus no point in prereq tk and teleport and warmth and static)
