I'm starting a new sorc and am not looking forward to the journey to Insight!

But I'm trying to change my thinking here--this could be an opportunity to try out a charged boltress or, I dunno, something else!

What has everyone found to be the quickest way through normal, assuming "wasting" a skill reset isn't a problem--and since buying mana pots is a pretty amazing feature? I'd prefer to play than leech, by the way. =)
