i want to build a godly enchantress

[trueimage]

I want to max enchant as high as possible. secondary skill of orb or bilzzard. I like orb because you can aim it, but what do you guys think, is orb too weak?

Here is what I am thinking, please help me out. I haven't played in a while.

Skills:

20 warmth
20 fire mastery
20 or 0 enchant (to get enchant from demon limb or not? at the cost of repairs plus no enchant until L63 when you can equip)

20 orb
~5 cold mastery
~10 prereqs

Stats:
str: for gear
dex for gear
vit: all
ene: none

Equip:
Shako fire facet
+3 enchant or warmth Ormus with 15% to cold and fire, fire facet socketted
Gore Rider boots
Magefist gloves
SOJ or BK rings, +1 skill
Maras ammy
Demon Machine weapon with fire facet/ demon limb and lidless on switch or without demon limb, eschutas


Merc:
A2 Holy Freeze
Infinty
not sure on the rest

I am leaning towards no demon limb for the repair cost - how mcuh will this cost me in terms of enchant damage?

15% fire skill vs +skills on enigma for example, is it worth the tradeoff?

[Lycanthronick]

Why not go hoj/dragon + duel dream with lit and fire mastery maxed? With demon limb you could even afford orb and some cold mastery, while keeping max warmth. This would give you trielemental damage and make you pretty effective in any environment. A holyfreeze merc with Dream Helm, Infinity and Fort is prolly best.

Just use hoj phase + Dream Trollnest as main attack. And to use orb, switch to fathom or occy + Spirit, or Spirit+ Deamonlimb on switch for enchant.

Like Lycanthronick said, I'd seriously consider using Dream as well, unless of course getting the gear is a problem for you.

If you can get a Dream helm + shield, max out Lightning Mastery to multiply the Holy Shock damage, instead of getting Orb, and make a melee enchantress instead of a ranged one, I heard they hit really very very hard!

If you still want to go ranged, maxed Lightning Mastery + Dream Helm should still add a very nice amount of Lightning damage to your attacks and complement your Fire damage, esp. against unbreakable Fire Immunes.

something I'd like to comment on just you understand:

20 or 0 enchant (to get enchant from demon limb or not? at the cost of repairs plus no enchant until L63 when you can equip)

Demon limb gives you CHARGES of Enchant -- it doesn't get you Enchjant at level 21. Therefore, +skills will not effect it at all.

Level 23 Enchant (20 Charges)

But yeah no +skills

but that saves 20 skill points.

I am leaning towards not using demon limb so I can use enchant before L63. It will be very hard to level, even in a group, without any skills after about level 5.

I used a pure enchantress, just a support unit for parties adding near 6k dmg and will sugest a few equipment prebuff for you:
-fire eschutas(+3 skill, +10-20% fire dmg faceted) and spirit shield(only if you have str for it)(vmagi normal use)
-circlet +3fire skills 2xfaceted(shako normal use)
-ammy +3 fire skills(maras)
Ppl can say is boring to use prebuff gear but is a one-cast-per-game since enchant last long, my sorc was pure fire doing 10-12k fireball dmg if i remenber correct and with a infinity merc and other dmg from partie was a fun char to play with.

Ok, I have been levelling my sorc and now I'm L59 with 20/20/20 warmth/enchant/fire mastery

Now I have to choose gear and 2nd skill. I also must choose merc and his gear.

I always play in a party and will build a hammerdin probably for other stuff so

money being no object, what gear should I get and which fire skill should I go with if I choose all fire?

That holy shock idea with dual dreams sounds cool too... but what is the holy shock damage and the enchant damage?

thanks


PS - don't worry about level for gear or cost. I want to build a really high end enchantress. But I mist admit sitting there enchanting everyone and not really playing sucks, so I need at least 1 attack ;)

if your gunna make a pvp build u should use charge with e sheild for pvp mayb thunder storm or frozen orb

Energyshield isn't really worth it unless you have a maxed out telekinesis and lots of points into ES.
Thunderstorm doesn't have that "it" anymore, too weak unless you max it out along with mastery and wield infinity too. Frozen orb is the way to go.

nah this is strictly PvM

any gear suggestions??

[trueimage]

Ok I have been levelling and am now 75

This is the setup I am going with:

Enchant + Holy Shock

20 Warmth
20 Enchant
20 Fire Mastery
1 Static Field
1 Telekinesis
1 Teleport
1 Cold Armor

That is what I have so far

I plan on adding:

20 Lightning Mastery
Rest - As yet undetermined lightning skill... Charged Bolt? Thunderstorm? Suggestions please ;)

Gear:
Helm: Dream Helm
Weapon 1: Eschutas with light facet
Armor: Ormus with good light/fire % + light facet
Shield: Dream Shield
Gloves: Magefist
Belt: Arachnid's Mesh
Boots: Sandstorm Trek
Amulet: Mara's Kaleidescope
Rings: 2x SOJ

On switch:
Weapon 2: Call To Arms
Shield 2: Spirit Shield


Mercenary:

Act 2 NM Defensive (Holy Freeze)

Helm: Vampire Gaze
Weapon: Ethereal Cryptic Axe Infinity
Armor: Stone

Charms:

Right now I have 2x +1 lightning plain GCs and a Sorc torch. I will collect them as I go, and get an Anni asap.

Stats:

Now, I don't know how I should allocate my stats..

STR: for equipment
DEX: for 75% blocking, I think
VIT: The rest
ENE: Base

Please rate this build and lmk any ideas / suggestions.

If it's going to be a melee'ing Enchantress I'd really recommend a Guardian Angel for Armor, especially if you're gonna use Dream Helm+Shield.

[trueimage]

no melee unless i get bored

holy shock + static to kill ppl, while teleporting around. Plan to add a light skill like CB i dunno

Just did some rough addition:

Light skill is +45% -10% enemy res
Fire is +19%
Cold is +13% (no cold skill used)

FHR is 72%
FCR is 100% with arach

My shield is a dream troll nest so chance to block is 50%

i've been pumping my dex and its only at about 40%, what should my dex be? (I'm already level 78 so not many more stats to spare)

MF% is low, below 100% for sure.

[CorwyntContiar]

I probally just didn't see it in your gear but a dream troll nest I thought is only 40% chance to block which means at lvl 78 you would have to have 307 dex.

Now I have a lvl 76 dual dream melee enchantress and use guardian angel which adds another 20% to block chance and 30% to block rate which is really nice. If you go this route you only need 210 dex. I personally have a nice crafted saftey amulet I use also that ended up with pretty nice mods but it's another 10% to block. Just some thoughts for you. I've only got 182 points in dex and have it at 75%.
