PKing FB Sorc

Shade has convinced me to make a FB sorc pker when he caught wind of my +5 FB 20% fcr level 35 sorc orb. So here it goes, but I may need some help.

+5 FB 20% FCR Orb
Vipermagi
Magefist
Rare +2 Fire amulet with good mods
Rare +2 Fire Circlet with good mods Prubied, x 2 if possible
Visceratuant 'Eld' for max block or something else?
Rare fcr/mana rings
Sanders boots for stats?
Rare fhr/life/str belt?

Not sure on the boots and belt.

For merc:
Eth 4 pruby ancient armor
Eth Honor Partizan
3 Pruby death mask

Should I go with maxes instead?

If this sorc gets good enough I'll duel, but I have my doubts as to her going past pking. For charms I was thinking of enough fhr to hit the 63% bp and the rest vita. So, can anyone help guide me? A sorc seems like a fun pker.

Water walk boots.

NightSmoke belt - Helps keeping your mana up when using Esheild...if you've ever been smacked by a pvm charger, while amped and he's got might + conc on...you'll know what I mean when I say you need E sheild +TK


Sigons sheild : You won't be running. Eld it. More block than visceraunt, little more str req.

That's about it.

That hits the fcr breakpoint iirc. You should be able to put a real beat down on people with it.

Definitely get some FHR on that sorc. I ran across issues against Zealots, Chargers, and MA Kickers/Dragon Flight sins. Energy Shield definitely protects you, but one Eth Bonesnapping Pally could take you town.

I would definately go whistans for kickass fast block, which you will need to get out of chargelock, kicklock etc. Also u don't have to pump dex so much which means more points in vita!!

Somewhat on the same subject - Does anyone know the synergy of ES and TK? I put a couple points into TK and saw no noticable difference.

Energy shield typically drains 2 mana per dmg.
TK improves that rate, 16 points in TK brings it down to 1 mana per dmg.
A couple points won't give any noticable difference, you really do need to pump it if you're going to do it at all.

you need 16 hard points for it be a 1:1 ratio . 2 points is about the same as none. For example and dont quote these numbers as exact they are more to show how it works.

Lvl1 TK 2 points mana per 1 point damge taken
Lvl2 TK 1.9 points per 1 point dmg taken
lvl 3 1.8 and so on till
lvl 16 1 point mana per 1 point damage taken.

So you are making your ehsield and mana pool more efficient, probably the best build for mf runners since you can take ablove average dmg with less
effect.

Edit: Darn you Mouse and your faster typing skills ><

For those who like numbers:

Each point reduces the conversion factor (damage to mana rather than life) by exactly 0.0625. As everyone else said, it starts off at 2. Placing one point, which everone does, reduces it to 1.9375. Placing two points reduces it to 1.8750. Four points gets it to 1.7500, eight points gets it to 1.5000, sixteen points gets it to 1.0000. And if you put the full twenty points in there you get a conversion factor of 0.7500. So with high ES and maxed TK you can reduce the amount of total drain on your life and mana bulbs considerably.

I have. I've made one to do nothing but level in baal games using the highest damage stick I could find with a necro friend, conc aura and might merc. So many dead pks...

I made a PvM charger last season. Level 71 RIP dueling with him. I had a BotD Thunder Maul that did psycho damage at 69.

PvM Chargers will tend to carry a Bonesnap unless dueling and then they go to their switch.

Chargers are fun in PvM. I made a few pre 1.10 when it was pretty easy to max out charge and go Fanta and still have good Zeal. I am sure you could probably still hybrd out one with Zeal, but it is soo hard to refrain from using that BIG OLE usually slow 2 HANDER!!!
