Just another 1 of mini guides, inspired by the many threads of people asking for help in making mf sorcs. this time we'll be focusing on Frozen Orb.
Frozen Orb is a great skill, that goes without saying. I prefer it to blizz on an Mf sorc, due to the fact that it and its synergies are finished much earlier. Blizzard mf sorcs are just as viable, though.
Anyhow, the gear and skills... the fun part
This is not an all out mf sorc, it has good fhr, life, and max resists. The only thing it sacrifices is fcr for mf, but since frozen orb is non spammable, this isnt such a big deal. 0 fcr is still fine for teleport, as long as your fhr, res, life are good.
This is also based for softcore, on hc you would probably want some fcr and possibly energy shield... just in case.
Gear-
Gull- 100 mf, nuff said.
Rings and ammy- 2X perf nagel, or better yet magic rings with up to 40 mf each. A +prismatic sorc ammy is your best bet, with fcr and mf being the 2 other most valuable mods
Boots and belt- These need fhr and resists, preferably high fire and light
Shield and armour- Twitch and a 3pdiamond large shield works well, although the richer player would want a 30/20 pris pdiamonded bone shield + a fhr resists armour
Helm- This can be tarnhelm, 3ptopaz helm, or a rare with fhr//res. Your choice.
That about sums it up for gear. On this sorc, armour and possibly helm socketing will be ptopaz over pruby or any other pgem.
Stats-
base dex
base energy
nuff strngth for gear
rest to vita
Teleport is maxed last, and at 2 mana a teleport, you can teleport endlessely. Its more effective than maxing warmth in terms of keeping your mana pool high.
Okaay, so now what to do with your sorc now that youve built her up and geared her? Get rich!
This sorc can mf hell andy, mephisto, duriel if you wanted to, and ancient tunnels in act2. Ancient tunnels have good drops, no cold immunes, and decent exp till the low 70's.
Things to acheive on your sorc... max fire and light resist, the rest dont really matter but high cold and positive poison resist help.
At least 30 fhr- any lower than this and you will find yourself in fhr animation, unable to tele
Dont worry about + skills, just survival and mf. Orb will kill fast enough already
And thats it. Your life and block should be fine, if you use the rares or twitch// 3 pdiamond.
Tele is much nicer than warmth on MF sorcs, but I need to remake my FBall sorc with warmth rather than hydra (hydra is nice for somethings, but for 1v1 dueling warmth would cut my mana consumption).
Also, add one point to warmth first!

Thanks, that compliment means a lot coming from you
i managed to almost collect the gear u suggested in this guide (no twitch yet, angelic armor, amu and rings thought as a temporary replacement).
i play SP, and now i am kinda stuck... do you have any idea (strategy..) how to level this girl by herself without spending endless time to get from lvl 20 to lvl 30? (or there is basically no other way than being rushed?)
i began to melee with khalim's will but at act3 norm exping gets very slow... is lvl 21 now. basically i have only invested 1 pts into the prereqs, static, teleport, warmth.
