Since you just started you probably have no equip evailable to you really.

I would suggest one of these 3 builds

Meteorb
Sasja's Meteorb Guide (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=254070)

Chain Lightning/Frozen Orb Sorc
m0nk's CL/FO Guide (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=126677)

Blizzard/Fireball Sorc
Miladys-Knight's BlizzBaller Guide (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=214093)

All of these builds have their own str and weaknesses. I suggest reading the guides, select the one you like the best then ask a few more questions after you figure out what kinda sorc you want to play.

Yes Sorc's need str, most of them wear a "Spirit" Monarch, its a runeword (Thal Thul Ort Amn) and a Monarch requires 156str to wear.

Most people also usually do this
Strength = 156 total
Dexterity = Nothing
Vitality = The rest of your Points
Energy = Nothing.

hope this helps and gives you some idea where to start. Feel free to ask more questions if you have them.

o and welcome to the forums.:wave:

PVP builds are generally built at least somewhat differently than PVM builds and use far more optimized gear. I'd avoid PVP until you have higher end gear :grin:

The type of sorc depends on what you intend to do with her. For just mfing Meph, Bliz is the best, for general mfing, Meteor/Orb (or bliz/fireball I guess, never tried it though) should work fairly well.

For a sorceress starting up a blizzard build (including a decent merc) would be a good idea. PVP is gear dependent to a high degree and a Blizzard sorc could be used to herd thpse items you need. I suggest a low strengt/max vita build. Pump strenght to 100 and rest i vitality - it allows you to wear shako and skullders etc.
