Hi all
I sometimes get back to my failed characters. One of that failed attempts was enchantress. It is to specialized and not really versalite. I came back to her build and made a drastic change. I add frozen orb to that build. And guess what it does wonders.
Skills
20 Frozen Orb
1 in al preqs (5)
1 in cold mastery (all rest goes here)
1 optional point in first cold armor (could be second one if you want)
1 in Telekinesis, Teleport, Static
20 Enchant
20 Fire Mastery
20 Warmth
1 Firebolt and Fireball
It is 91 skill points (finished at level 80)
Gear
Helm Shako 2 to attributes or Andariel Visage 25 /30 str (socketed with fervor or ral (andy))
Weapon Passion Phase Blade
Amulet Mara or Seraph 5 to attributes / 0
Boots Wartravellers 10 str 10 vita
Rings Raven + Raven 15-20 dex each
Shield Stormshield
Torch 10 -20 torch each
It is base and i see that grimace on your face - what so high dex and so high str wahat with vitality. she will be to fragile bleeeh. And ther comes a support system of my build
Armor Lionheart in low req armor 25 str 15 dex 20 vita
Gloves IK gloves 20 str 20 dex
Belt IK Belt 25 str
It is huge bonus to all stats
Lets calculate :
Str - 10 base + 25 belt +20 gloves +25 armor +10 Boots + 15 (average) torch = 105 in strength and you need only 156 so i will add 51 str. It will be 66 base now +25 armor +15 torch (i know that it is at 75 level but use strength charms until then) =101 + 10 boots = 111 adding Belt and Gloves (+45) = 156 pronto stormshield in use.
Dex - 25 base +20 gloves +15 armor + 17 * 2 (average ravens) +15 torch = 109 base and you need 136 add 27 there and wow passion phase blade in use. of course you use dex charms to level 75.
Vitality added - 20 armor + 10 Boots and all rest (assuming level 80 you will have 79*5 + 15 stats points = 410 - 56 str -27 dex = 327 vita added).
Quite a bit (327+30= 357)
As you see i dont put maras and shako in my calculations.
And now another innovation.
Weapon Switch - Caster mode
Weapon - Hoto or Eshutas temper
Shield - Spirit monarch
The caster mode is very important. It gives you +5 to skills up to +75 fcr (you need 63 for the FCR break point so you get it for sure)
It is used to cast enchant and for casting Orbs.
As you see it doesnt switch anything in stats gear so the requirements are always met.
Strategy
Act as general frozen orb sorcy (in caster switch) but when you see those cold immunes cast enchant switch to zeal mode and chop your way through them.
Merc
Act 2 holy freeze is good with reapers shaftstop and Vampire gaze.
It si really nice and different sorcy. Certainly not overpovered and really fun to play. And it is great rusher. (nice orb + nice enchant)
Enjoy.
