FB Sorc - variants

I was wondering how to build a good fb sorc. Back when I had one I was still poor so it was half-***....

Can someone tell me the different variants and so on?

IMO a fire/es sorc as at an advantage vs. just about anyone she faces, with the exception of ww-sins.

You actually have the bp with just a 3fire 5+fcr ammy.

i have that exact set up and can answer any questions u might have. its around 20k firebolt dmg. if i switch to eschutas, sojs, and ormus i can do 31k dmg at the 105fcr bp. i tend to stick with the 200 fcr though.

obviously i have 9 fire gcs if i am able to do 20k dmg at 200fcr or 31k dmg at 105 fcr. remember that unlike a lite sorc whose avg dmg is about half there max dmg, a fire sorcs avg dmg is about the same as there max.

Only magic amulets can have +3 fire skills, but magical amulets are limited to only +10% FCR. So either you have a +2 fireskills 20 fcr one, a +2 sorc 20 fcr one, or a +3 fire skills 10 fcr one.

I Dunno what your on bud, but 80k meteor, 48k bolt 47k ball is absolute BS. I took your exact gear, but all perfect, and ended up with totals of 49k meteor, 25k bolt and ball. You didnt mention hydra up there with skills, but you had its damage, I put 2-3 skills in it for damage of under 3k. Damage is achievable at higher rates with more plus skills, but your gear cannot reflect that damage. Not to say its not good gear, its what I used to an extent. Rares would be better in some places then magics. Isnt it possible for rare helms to have 2 sorc skill 2 fire skill, for a total of 4 fire skills vs 3 and higher fcr? plus better mods like life and str. Same for ammy. I also didnt count in facets.

For both amulets and circlets, this is not true. You can only have one of them, but never both.

[quote}for a total of 4 fire skills vs 3 and higher fcr?[/quote]

Rares and magicals have the same possible fcr, in circlets and amulets. Crafted amulets however can get 10% more fcr than rares or magicals.

plus better mods like life and str. Same for ammy. I also didnt count in facets.

You didn't count facets in what? In the gear comparison? Or the damage output?

Honestly, that damage _does_ sound quite unrealistic. I'd say it could be possible with 2x facets in your helm and 2x occu sojs, but I'm not sure of that either.

Didnt count facets in Dmg output. Sorry I was mistaken on the amulet situation I havent played in over a year and I swore I had rares with those mods, but I guess im just not remembering correctly.

Max FB damage is close to 20k without Facets. Counting Facets and the like, I don't think you'd get up to 40k.

BTW: The equipment you listed only gets up to 195 FCR. You'll need an FCR Jewel to get to 200.

20 Fireball
20 Meteor
20 Fire Bolt
20 Fire Mastery
20 Telekinesis
1 Teleport
1 Static Field
1 Warmth
1 Firewall
1 Blaze
1 Inferno

116 Strength
base Dexterity
base Vitality
400+ Energy

My suggestion to Fireball PvPers. Max Resist, 200 FCR, 20k Fireball... (not counting Facets/Eschuta's) I think. 90~ ES Absorb with prebuff.

This is all considering PERFECT equipment. As said before, the only thing that will be killing you are Mageslayers. It's a shame I have to scrap her soon, I need a Javazon. :-(

Whats gear setup, also why so many points in energy if not enough in energy shield becaus wouldn't your +skills not be enought to get 75% absorb?
