Matriarch IcyManipulator
Yes... yes... I know I said that my next project will be a Meteorb or FO/CL variant.
after my cheese-a-din
But I ran into something here at the forums while trying to decide what sorc variant I would really like.
For the record, I have played a CL/FO and a Meteorb way back. Hadn't had much success with the Meteorb, perhaps because it was a restart. Unlike with the CL/FO where she was twinked heavily. She did the countess way too many times and had earned to cube a vex but... anyway...
As what I was saying earlier, I ran into Nepeta's guide, the Blizz Sorc
I've quickly checked my gear before starting out and it turns out that I was only missing a marrowwalk. It really seems a nice guide and also, I haven't played a single elemental sorc eversince, and also I gather that she is a good runner not just for LK, but also for Meph, Pindle and Andy.
That really got me interested, so here she is:

Killing Mephy at p7 settings. Had no really significant drops yet.
I've played her twinked at the onset and hadn't really much trouble except at Act3 NM with the gloams. Died there many times mainly because I couldn't bring resists up.
Hell was a different story after killing Mephy. I had to reroll Hephasto thrice as he spawned CI with some other nasty mods.
Then I got stuck at ROF and can't kill Diablo because of the CI Obilivion Knights. My moron has really a poor gear and could not hold his own even for just a while.
Good thing as I joined Ashmer in Hamachi and together with Tank, they rushed me all the way to kill Baal, getting the socket and anya quest too.
So again, thank you to Ashmer and Tank. Looking forward for some more MP sessions, it really was fun albeit it was only a short one.
I've tried running Baal's minions last night (for levelling up), but it was too much for me and my merc to handle. So I decided to run and MF Meph while acquiring some experience too.
That's pretty much it. I don't know what will my next project be, I think I'm gonna stay with my IcyManipulator for a while and see what turns out on my runs.
And oh, she was really Level 80 when she reached Mat status. I was lazy posting last night as it was 1:00AM here already.
Thanks for reading this.
And yes, I do, I mean I did play Magic The Gathering Cards. One of my fave artifacts, the Icy Manipulator, along with the Propaganda Winter Orb combo IIRC. FTW!
