i was bored, decided to experiment, rate this build..

well i got a necro using the skele-mancer V2.0..i dont have all the twinked items but i have half of the twinked and rest untwinked..and he's pretty good for rune runs..mf runs..etc..but i was thinking..and i decided to experiment with this build i thought up(dont know if its been mentioned before)
here's my build:

stats:
95 str( i think this is str required for war travs)
base dex
125 energy(i think that's enough to get about 1000mana
rest vitality

skills:
Max FO
Max ice bolt(fo synergy)
Max Cold Mastery
Max warmth
and rest on Energy Shield


if i were to get full tals, 2P diamond moser's(for resists to survive) then rest MF gear..would this build work effectively against hell Meph, Andy and Ancient Tunnel runs?? plz leave ur opinion
 
Warmth will not be needed at all, except for just 1pt!
Escpecially since Frozen Orb is timered and wont eat your mana away.

But you WILL need 20TK/1-xx Energy Shield for Energy Shield to be effective at all. Anyone here useing Energy Shield will be able to confirm this to you.

So the build would rather look like this:

20 Frozen orb
20 Cold Mastery
20 Icebolt
20 Telekinesis
1-xx Energy Shield

Yes you can run Andy/Meph/Pindle/Ancient Tunnels with That FO/ES build!
This is actually a popular build :)

thanx and also.. would u prefer getting 125-150 vit n rest energy or 125 energy and rest vit? since ill have max'd ES, will i need massive life? or should i jus pump mana??

plus i prefer to put 5 in warmth on every sorc..jus recovers mana pretty good..is this ok?
 
i just need to strike it lucky and find a Pul for tal ammy and a Mal for tal armor, then im pretty good..maybe find me a Um for a shako also..but im not very lucky =/

I would place more points into Energy, since Energy Shield needs ALOT of mana and place less points into Vitality. You will need less life with maxed Telekinesis and ES.

I dont think there should a problem with a few points into Warmth if you feel more comfortable that way.

awesome thx!! i think im gonna get 100vit and rest energy..because 100 vit should give me about 500+ hp
 
since the damage absorbed by the mana from ES is applied before resists, wouldnt you not need the resists as much and instead put on a lidless wall or something of the like?

(that gets me thinking, would damage reduction be applied before ES? if so id go stormsheild and have 45% damage reduction (shako) or 35 with tals set. whaddaya think?)

but the max mana from lidless would also be nice! (if BER does damage reduc in lidless id do that... if i was rich)


the only thing you would need is poison resist, so maybe put an emerald in your sheild and have 11% poison resist charms?

You are pretty much right. Resists still help some in that the damage that is elemental is reduced by your energy shield first, so that helps a lot. Poison Resists are necessary

Also at the point we are talking about damage Magic Damage Reduced By and Damage Reduced by are probably more effective than % reductions from a Stormshield. Not that those don't help too.
 
Actually Stormshield is a waste on a ES sorc only it's defense can be considered usefull, go for a decent Gerkes instead or incase you got enough X DMR and X MDR then go for lidless.

As for poison personally i just leave all res for what it is since if you do get poisoned you will have to take an anitdote or go back to town anyway.
