Single Player Blizz sorc help

[SilvioDante]

A little while ago I lost my x-pac CD so I thought I would play D2C for a while, eventually settling on a HC Blizz sorc. Problem is that now she's up to Act IV Hell I realise that Lord De Seis spawns CI automatically and I have -ZERO- way of dealing other damage. MP is pretty much out of the question because I dont think anyone at the SPF plays Classic HC and even if someone does, I live on the dark side of the moon and my ping normally hovers between 800-1.2k, not really ideal for HC MPing. Soooo..... Any ideas of how to sechs up De Seis? Or am I basically ****ed?

You could shop for a +2 sorc and +3 static staff. That should allow you to lower him to a sliver of health. Then you'll need a +2 sorc +3 nova staff for the finishing touch.
Be sure to kill his buddies first though. As you know, they'll happily chop you into cubes.

Take into account the fact that I never play HC and thus the above might be a really, really, really bad idea for HC.
There are some HC players here that might give you better advice though.

if u can't find a decent staff to give u enough damage to kill seis,

u can add some pts to firewall or (lightning) nova.

(i can't remember how often or if sies is always immune to fire or not)

if seis isn't immune to fire, with static and firewall (each casted firewall will stack, so even with 1 or a few pts into it, it does really good damage) and should be able to easily kill of seis. with firewall damage shouldn't be much of a problem. the only issue is if seis is immune to fire or not.

static and (lightning) nova can be a bit harder (aka take more pts) to do enough damage to kill seis. i don't think seis is ever immune to lightning..maybe he can be ...not sure...but anyways... it's a bit harder to kill with (lightning type spells) since they don't do damage like cold (bliz/orb/iceblast) or fire (meteor/fireball/firewall).

also remember that in hell static can only take away half the mosnters life....

unless u got a LowRes necro or conviction paladin helping...but than your bliz will also be able to damage seis anyways.....oops i forgot while writing this that u needed help for solo'ing...i got bad memory, short and long term bad memory lol

Cheers for the replies guys, why I didn't think of buying a +2/+3 staff I don't know...
If I manage to not die like the chump-*** fool and actually kill Hell D I will be forever in your guys debt. Oooo-rah!!!
