Viability of FW/FO Sorceress?
All,
I remember fondly in the way way long ago times how much fun I had with a pre-1.10 Firewall / Frozen Orb sorc I used to have on the realms. I know that Firewall in particular took a hit with 1.10. Still, I'm wondering if it is viable in the 1.12a environment for single player PVE only.
Can a solo single player FW/FO sorc work?
I was thinking:
Firewall 20
Fire Mastery 15+
Frozen Orb 20
Cold Mastery 10+
Teleport 1+
Static Field 1+
Warmth 1
Pre-requisites 8
Str 60-70
Dex 2 points per level for high/max block
Vitality everything else
Energy at base with items (or will FO require some investment?)
Merc Act 2 NM Holy Freeze with (eventually) the elite thresher that cases Decrepify plus a Tal Rasha mask.
The reason I only put Fire Mastery at 15+ and Cold Mastery at 10+ is that I have some vaguely silly idea of also pumping Static up to 5 base, and pumping up Teleport to 10 base, so that it is 15-18 with +skill items. I also sorta want this character to be a power-rusher for other alts (I have 2 PCs on a LAN at home so I can rush my own characters).
But, SF and TP oddities aside, is this viable for a build? Is there any point?
Thanks,
Lewis
