Suggestions for mf sorc build

[thejones]

I have a hammerdin that I use for mf runs presently, but he just isnt as fast as some of the sorc's I've seen even with his 90 something % fcr. This is why I started looking to sorc's. I like the fact that they are fast as hell, can cast from afar, and can tele indefinately when set up properly.

I been reading about the benefits to a pure light sorc and was wondering if anyone had any input. I want to be able to run pits, cs, baal without getting stomped by immunes. I also dont want to depend on my merc for infinity...so I was thinking about running an infinity scythe on switch. Cost for the build isnt really a problem, as I have plenty of items that would work already and can trade for the rest if need be. I'd like to run around 400%mf while not sacrificing much in the speed/dmg dept if possible.

Any input would be much appreciated!
Thanks.

Why would you not want to depend on your mercenary for Infinity? It will greatly increase your damage in nearly all situations.

Ya, that is true. But if I am running Chaos or Baal, I dont want to be crippled if he is IM'd

Magechick did a great deal of work on this.

Infinity doesn't break everything. See here for immunes post Infinity. (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?p=4842341&highlight#post4842341)

To carry infinity or not (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=500685) from the Stickies.

And the breakpoint for teleing will be 63% or 105% but for lightening you'll need 117% to hit the second breakpoint.
