CL/BL Sorc
----------
I've pat/mat'ed many characters,but this is the first pat/mat thread I've posted.
Initially this was going to be a character to be used for diablo normal running(that explains the name)
,but then I changed my mind and made her a CL/BL Sorc...just because I didn't have one and I also think that this build can be very efficient for baal running.
Although she is still young(only lvl 73) I have great plans,I am planning to run baal with her.
That is the reason I left many skills and quests unused,I want to find the best balance between CL and BL for Players1 Baal Running.
So far I've invested 20 in CL and BL and the rest are going to be decided in the future.
Here are the screenshots:

Strength was 156,so I could wear Spirit,everything else went to Life.
I skipped A LOT of quests and WP's,so my unspent points are currently 9 but the real number is 19(if I complete all the quests).
I wasn't planning on getting hit,so I didn't care about blocking or resistances.
The 'boring' part was getting from level 1 to level 24,where I had blizzard.
I got to nighmare at level 42,and to hell at level 66.
Another boring part was leveling from 66 to 72,because I needed a stronger merc so I can handle the ancients.
The ancients took me about 10 deaths before I did it right,(with the big help of my merc of course).

Generally a very fun build,if you have the right equipment(not at all expensive though),I would surely recommend it.

Thanks for reading!
