F/L sorc, try getting an merc from act 5 in hatred, give him an tu6 flameberg and tu6 splint mail or some rare sa that drop on the way, you can also make a kra rw armour and give him a yul rw helmet, rest of the gear is optional at this point, he will tank for you allot with these items, you can give him later a better weapon ofc and some resis in some places of gear and LL
did you skill blade spirits ? they not very good, but helping at some point, cuz you have no ice tree pets there ( ice elementals )
try getting a rare sacred sorc armour and craft acied fiends oskill on it, it will help at some areas to crowd control better, maybe for brc and trials and stuff
option also will be respec to cold + ( fire, light or psn )
pyrablast is very good now, you can get mana back every 5 casts, around, when your mana goes down, when you spamming it, just use mana sweep too
fire dance is also nice, but comes in timer problems with mana sweep when area spamming pyrablast
cold / fire tree is very nice for more focussing on minions + blade spirits + acid fiends oskill from crafted armour
i personally do not like the fire / light combo
abyss has also a strong area and boss ability, but you get also the freezing pets in this tree
Thank you for ur reply, it's rly helpful, now i decided to change my build to fire/cold, but i haven't found crafted armor with acid fiend oskill yet, still using Apocalypse as farming skill, and max pyroblast, it feels abit faster than flamestrike , but some boss got Fire Immune, and i dont know which skill is the best for bosses on cold tree since Abyss got nerfed according to the changelog, im currently maxing Snow Queen and Ice Element only on cold tree, but got trouble with keeping them alive.
for the ice elementals, its important to skill also frigid sphere in the ice tree, it gives 15% hp per skill lvl to the ice elementals
for minion presummon, use on weapon switch a combo of items:
can be:
>rare sa 6socket ability weapon and shield - craftet with magical shrines and fill with perfekt bloodstones in the weapon and maybe minion jewels or Nas Runes in the shield + magic orbs with minion hp,resis, dmg
>alternate cheaper when you not have the shrines:
tier6 crystal sword magic, make it honorific, fill it up with perfekt bloodstones, before, then put in magic orbs with minion stats, Hp, Resis(cap75% in dest), minion dmg,
tier6 shield same honorific as the sword, fill the shield socketing with minion jewels low lvl or craftet, or Nas Runes( but not very good for the high lvl req and lost magic orb space) socketing them before, then use also magic orbs like in the sword
=> far better but way harder to get would be a rare sacred warstaff with magical crafts, blessed also with magical crafts, +12 or+13 sorc skills, and filled with craftet 15%minion hp jewels, or better ones, or perfekt bloodstones, magic orbs it like the honorific cheaper option above
alternate on farming up, use magic orbs on your gear with some minion resis and minion hp, not rly much is needed to get them to like 20k hp ++
alternate: craft one or two gear pieces with magical shrine and bless it with your correspondence element that you are using as main skill for killing ( fascinating shrine ) boots and belt are usually the ones at starting this, or also the armor, but the armor is a nice source for dmg and oskills aswell, just dont focus on minion stats there so much, gloves will be pul rw or crafts for long time, till some su/set can beat this spot, helmet a rare +3 circlet or craft, or alternate earlie rw for temp use
>frigidsphere and icelementals supermaxed
>snow queen i have not maxed, just a few points, to get some hp%, i focused more on dmg and minion skills
>living flame i have made 19 points in so far, can be more increased aswell and synenergies with all hp bonus from charms and snow queen
>pyroblast i supermaxed
>flamstrike 1 point
>and firedance i made few points, i would like to max it aswell, maybe respeccing later, but it gets bonus from all skills, so it can be also work as one point wonder
>shatter the flesh 1point, or few, it can be strong in cowlvl and area farming in ta and such, gets also bonus from +sks
>abyss 1 point, or smax depends where you farming, bosses or areas, when farming bosses, then focus more on crafts with spell dmg
>blade spirits work with few points as tank minions, iv made 4 points so far, testing, maybe some potential later
>familiar made 12 hard points, can be more, but its ok, will change this section on respeccing maybe
>mana sweep and antimass 1pointer
>chronofield 1point
>symbol of esu 1point, increase with charms and gear skills
>force blast 1 point or more, havent test, maybe for some harder bosses it can be good to max it, same with chronofield, but we cannot respecc endlessly like in last patches with a cheap cube recipe
but still not optimal, testing also
