You only need to move the .d2s file. Delete the rest.
If you create the mule with ATMA all process should be faster.
Is there any reason not to use a stash instead of a character in bringing items forward?
Neither ATMA or GoMule convert stashes.
What if you put the item you want to bring forward into a stash, then move that item onto a character in a latter version?
You can't move items from and to different versions stashes and/or characters.
ATMA doesn't change items (exception one being the ATMA bug). Only the game can do it. So only the game can convert stuff (exception two 1.10a -> 1.10s).
Making ATMA and/or GoMule convert characters, stashes and/or items would be very time consuming, probably prone to bugs and kind of pointless since the game does that pretty easily and fast.
Planning to play 1.07 to search for Valkyrie Wing, Arkaine's Valor, maybe a few others.
What advice would you give on build, where to find? Racks, right?
I'll give the same advice I give everyone else starting 1.07.
Make a frozen orb/static sorc. Cold Mastery breaks all immunities and static is uncapped so you can sliver any monster you want. Play through the game and don't worry about looking for sets/uniques since MF is pretty broken.
You will have to rack Arkaines, Lower Kurast is your best bet. It is possible for Valkyrie Wing to drop from regular/boss monsters (but not act bosses) but it is a long shot since you can't get enough MF to force them to drop all uniques. So racking will again be your best bet.
I got a frozen orb/static sorc, just hit 51 off the NM ancients... How is Energy Sheild? would the Protection be worth the 4 point investment? also i got 107 stat points saved.... ive been puting off dumping them into mana because with my two mpk rings i really only run out in boss fight or teleing around and even then i just down a purple pot.
I just matted my FO/SF sorc without energy shield, but I don't use ES in 1.13 either, so I can't say I know for sure. Imo, mana is too much of an issue to make it worth using, but I could be completely wrong.
FWIW, I didn't put any points in energy, and like I said, I managed to mat her, so I think it's ultimately up to you. Baal will most likely one shot you, and more hp won't change that hahaha
