Yep, after four weeks of play my Lightning sorc hits lvl 75. And starting from scratch I lack everything of gear, so Im kinda stuck in NM.

For now I use runecrafted items like Lore and Stealth. I have yet to find stormshield but I noticed two other interesting substitutes: Rhyme and Spirit.
I'll will make Rhyme for a MF gear, yet I'm curious about Spirit.

It requires the same amount of strength as stormshield, it has resistances and a whoopin +2 to all skills. The mana bonus is not bad either as I left energy at base. On top of that theres + to life and magic absorb.

Stormshield seem more defensive with damage reduction and higher blocking/blockrate.

Which one is the best? In Hell that is.

If you're going for max block, Stormshield is, simply because it'll take way too many points of Dex to make max block with a Spirit.

Ok, thanks for the input. Next sorc will drop block for sure! Fire sorc that is :)
