Tele Baal / Tal's Set - Shield
I'm at NM right now, doing Baal runs. At what level should I stop and start heading into Hell?
The big problem I'm having at the moment is that I'm a Sorc, and subsequently not very good at teleporting to the Throne of Destruction. Actually, to be perfectly blunt, I suck. Really badly. If you're on East L, and have seen a ridiculous display of crap teleporting in NM in the last two days, that may have been me. I apologize.
So... how do I fix that? :scratch: I'm using Sigon's Shield at the moment (still can't find a nice two socket shield for Rhyme and haven't gotten to the point of picking or acquiring my "endgame" shield just yet), and using most of Tal's set. My other gear is just generic junk I've found on my way here. Do I need to reach a specific fast hit breakpoint? I have no ice armor and no ES.
Is there a certain way to teleport around that makes it more likely I can avoid teleporting into a pack of fetishes and being poked to death? How do I deal with those darn Succubi that cast that magic version of Iron Maiden?
Also, on the note of shield, I'm making a Meteorb PvM/MF sorc. Using primarily the entire Tal's Set, since I'm guessing I'll be able to acquire that entire set long before I can get the unique/runeword godlys like Mara's, Arachnid, Hoto, CoH together. Is Stormshield the way to go? It seems like _the_ choice, but it's strength req are steep and since my other gear doesn't add to strength, I want to be sure before I commit too many points into there.
Thanks for any advice.
