Pvp sorc need alittle help

[Makenshi]

I am going to make a Sorc vs Meele classes.
I'm going to have max block and... alittle damage reduced :p

I know for sure that im going to use Stormshield socketed with something :) shako and that's about it and i need alittle advise about the other thing..

And im going to need alot of dex im thinking of taking rest in strenght for equip and rest in energy and use 20 + hp sc.

Will be happy for all advice ^_^

[tidus2005]

i would suggest using a tals belt for the nice dex bonus because that saves u 20 points that u can put in to vitality
also occy is nice for the 3 to skills

[Eddie_Perez]

get max dmg reduce, or ur useless vs melee, I would suggest to get a shaft and um it, or if u dont care about resists, ber it...

[Makenshi]

ok so shaft + storm + shako = 75 % dmg reduced may i ask what's the max dmg reduced? :P

[Makenshi]

hm should i use tals amu for hp + mana? <+2 sorc skills too duh ^_^>

Stupid noob, where the hell are your faster cast items? That 50% from wiz? That's only good enough for 10 frames, and you'll get owned by guided arrows if you can't even reach 9 frames. Lots of fast run charms? Why the hell do you need to run when you can teleport? Please don't give any advice in the future.

DR cap = 75%
Res cap = 95%
Pierce cap = 95%

...those are the important ones.

[Mr.Lee]

I dont really beilive that DR Cap is 75% , because on a BvB game i saw a guy using shitload of red ( Old gaze socked ber , storm socked ber too and even shaft socked ber!!! ).

And that barb owned all the other barbs , using 915ith blade like the others. Btw this is on Europe.

The other were not n00bs.

[dirkdig]

You base your opinion that there is no DR cap on someone using more DR beating some other people using similar gear?
It's been tested and proven. My barb uses a legit ccs without eth rune and beats barbs with 915iths all the time. Does that mean my sword is better than a 915 ith? Well, it has lower damage, and no eth rune, and lacks many useful mods that iths have.

BvB is one of the most gear-dependant duels in the game. You've been dueling noobs only.

[Apoq]

yes it is so is paladin/druid any melee is... ( assassin also)

Sorry, I thought I had made that obvious when I said they used 915 iths?:o

How about using Suicide Branch instead of wiz spike for the skill bonus? If u use 2 Occy rings or 1occy 1 wizz ring your res should be max anyway and suicide branch also has 50%fc.

I think thats about it, may want to get crafted belt for a boost in fcr.

[Apoq]

don't use absorb...

get a 10fcr ring with hp/mana/resists/stats

and use trangs ouls belt for cbf
