Pure Fire Build: Last Skill Points

Well, for once I didn't make a meteorb hybrid MF soso and decided to go full fire. This has its drawbacks of course, but I can at least run my main targets - Andy & Meph - with some speed. Sometimes I mf with a buddy who has a pure cold soso, which is quite fun and we work pretty well as a team.

Here is my skill distribution so far:

20 fire bolt
20 fire ball
20 meteor
20 fire mastery
1 warmth
1 enchant
1 hydra
3 inferno
1 blaze
1 firewall

I also have shiver armor, teleport & static of course.

At this point my soso is level 85 and I plan to get her to 90 maybe, so the main question is: What skill do I put my last points in?

As you can see, I already dumped some in inferno; each hard point adds 3% to meteor's avg fire dmg. I also decided to get hydras for fun, since enchant is always appreciated by party members anyway and hydras are already fully synergized by fire bolt and fireball.

When I mf with my buddy, I tend to use those hydras a lot as a sort of anchor point to see where the enemies are located off-screen. Then I just aim my fireball that way and cast away. Meteor is rarely used when actively mf-ing in areas like the pit, wsk2 & crystalline passage.

On the other hand, I was thinking about improving my kill speed at Meph's by upping inferno so I could try to run him in full pub games, but 3% extra dmg by the fire that is burning on the ground hardly seems worth it. Meteor's impact dmg with +skills is at 19k now and the avg fire dmg is at 1700 now.

Hell, I could even drop some extra points in shiver armor.

What do you guys think?

Don't touch that Shiver Armor!

How are you dealing with fire immunities when solo?

If you are that against cold, just up your Hydra...not much else left.

i would put every last point into static field for a bigger range. Static field is a blessing for sorcs. You only need to get half of hit points to kill any monster on hell. It is just sooooo awesome.

But when you have +15 skills...you'll regret it.
but he is a fire sorc, he will most likelly have a lot of +fire skills, not all skils.

yes, the ideal numer is 15 to static field, it is almost the full screen.

It depends on your gear...but if you have stuff like Tal's, it is all skills.
