The Nova sorce is made for cows. You static the whole screen a couple times, then they all die as they hotly freeze saunter toward you. Argurably preferable to a LF Zon because of your ability to tele versus a zon’s awful cast breaks

Maan this was my fav build back in 1.09 ... I had a lvl 98 Nova Sorc on EU server. It was such a strong build back then. Was cleaning cows easily in a 8 players party. Was a little OP with the right gear.
If u dont want the extra MF u could put a lum in ur wizspike/arm for +10 energy or in a shield for +50 mana. Or a sur for +5% extra mana. An eth in ur helm/arm/shield will regen mana also
@@Hdiber Slight correction; Ctrl + Right mouse with BH enabled, not (just) PlugY. Thanks for the idea though I have been wondering about this for awhile.
Go for 105% fcr bp while using infinity as weapon with insight merc , then drop frozen orb and spec into energy shield and max mana build. Use eth treks to help max poison resists. That is the best and most fun setup for pvm nova sorc.
I built a Nova sorc on slash a few years ago. I went pvp so I had a max ES and a HUGE mana pool. I also built an infinity for myself to hold in a scythe infinity. The ThunderStorm wrecks just teleporting around other players and then just stomp them with nova. Skills were in Nova\TS\Light Mastery\ES\Telekenesis.
I’m reminded of the 200cast Singer Barb video. Barbs and Sorce have the same breakpoints, and 105 is only 1 frame slower than 200. I point this out because you’re sacrificing a lot of damage for that extra frame. Since it takes about 3-5 casts to kill things, if the extra damage saves one casting, it’s actually “faster” to go for 105. Sorce hits 105 with Spirit, Arach, Griff, and Occy/Eschutas/HotO. Freeing up gloves for chancies or Frosties. Ammy for Mara. Armor for Enig/CoH Giving +4 more to Nova, Warmth, Mastery, etc. If you find an orb with high +Nova, you’re only 25 cast away with Spirit, Arach, Griff. AND that’s if the orb doesn’t have any cast on it. In this case, any crafted 2 skill ammy will have at least 5 cast on it, MFists/Trang’s finish it off. A 200 Barb loses a ton of damage versus a 105 Barb.
Did a 200 FCR singer barb once. Baal runs were fun. Fastest one down, rounded up all the souls using taunt (a spectacle in and of itself at 200 FCR) and stunned them for the sorcs to clear.

@The Monster Under Your Bed I agree to an extent but .10 added a lot of much needed depth and content to the game that .09 simply didn't have. The game was becoming stale and bnet was flooded with hacked items and duped gear. Hell is a bit ridiculous right now especially for untwinked chars but if you farm enough in NM it isn't too bad. I typically don't go into hell with my chars until I'm lvl 75+ with some bis items.
@The Monster Under Your Bed what I meant was the meta's changed a lot in .10. If it had remained .09 people would have been playing the same builds over and over. I do agree that hammerdins and other overpowered classes need a nerf to rebalance the game though. Casters are way overpowered in .10. Personally I stick to single player hc untwinked runs myself to avoid the imbalanced bs on bnet.
All you really want is -20 light resistance. The + 10 light skill damage is really meh bc it doesn’t work like cold damage percentage. Basically you get the best roll on the best stat and you should be thrilled to get a -25 light res griffons provided you have a 5/5 light facet.
Hey! Don't you need cold skiller charms instead of lightning? If not would you tell me why you went with lightning? Is it for cold imunes with your lightning skill?
Oh this wakes Up memories. Played this bad girl years ago the same way, with just minor different gear. Never could get my hands on a good 2/20 Mana amulet, so i had a rare one and one less soj for the missing FCR. Loved her. Side Note... If you want some variety try out max block with her. You loose the 200 FCR, but gain so much more safety. The damage loss is minimal, because you have more freedom with the Gear choice. And with that, you can run her everywhere. I tried both and gameplay wise the MB Variant is probably better. But the Style Points are earned with 200 FCR no block for sure.
Lighting and nova spec were my fav. Both did well against taking out a wind druids meat shields quickly. Also charged bolts just crushed zons with the fcr. Literally just locked them in dodge till death
Greetings from Argentina DB! Really enjoy your videos and I am actually learning lots of builds I am not familiarized with (always go for the hammerdin or de javazon here). Take care dude
How would this fare without infinity / griffon's? I have an ormous somewhere in my mules and a few facets I could spare, would it be enough -lightning res?
I think this build synegises best with meteor/fire, especially with the cast speed. Also if you use wiz, then you can use ormus. Its more dmg if + 3 Nova/15/15, however not so much fire. I guess viper is fine too
hello, i was wondering, as a solo, nor 3 to 4players max party. Could a Frozen orb (without maxing the 2% synergy from ice spike (i think ?) (the only synergy that frozen got) So it would be lower cold damage, and maxing lightning Nova and Lightning mastery as secondary spell and element ? Do you think it might do well for mainly solo runs ? Cheers
Probability a crazy idea but, would maxing out energy shield and telekinesis be a viable option? You would need to recalculate energy vs vit allotment and rely on the merc for cleanup instead of orb but, maybe it's worth it.
I highly suggest getting hoto instead of wixspike and then slapping on a 10fcr ring with mana and res. This way you gain 2 to all skills. Hoto still gives a lot of res and gives 15% max mana ect ect. The main thing being the extra 2 to all skills with this setup over wixspike as well as more light and fire res directly.
What if u max out mana shield instead and put points in energy? Damage reduction, 6k mana and 500 mana regen per second is hell of a survivability, so you won't even bother jumping into any crowds except manaburn mb.
first high level char i had was a 70-something cold sorceress, i dont even remember what i was using as my main skill, probably frozen orb or blizzard or something. but then i saw this disgusting nova sorceress just tearing through cows with ease. i had to make a new char after seeing that. that became my new main
Great video! My favorite variant: es Nova sorc wielding infinity with prayer Merc with insight (for the synergy). Super aggressive play style, good for p8 cs runs. I'd love to see your take on it 😃
@@seaneriksen2695 Sure, but you can still hit the 105 for breakpoint (viper, griffon, mage fist, arach, ring/amy). With a 20% fcr amy you can even have 2 sojs and hit 105.
Energy shield in my opinion was the most necessary skills in Diablo 1 for Sorc or Rogue to increase their survivability on the latest dungeons. But in D2 I think you will want your character to make more damage in less amount of time. Putting the most points in vitality will make you free of investing skill tree points in ES making it more perspective to put them into fire/cold/lightning skills. Again, it's only my opinion bro and please don't blame me for my English (I know it's bad). I am from Russia :)
Energy shield is great for PVP but very bad for PVM (not viable IMO). A single mana burn monster will drain all your mana and getting stuck in monsters while taking damage = no mana for teleport, not counting how deadly poison is with that small life pool, you need ton of +life SC to counter that. There are many mana burn monsters in hell difficulty. Usually all of your points are going to be in energy, getting all your mana drained by a single hit makes it much less viable than simply maxing vitality. Plus, to makes it ''viable'' you have to spend points until you have near 95% ES (or prebuff everytime switching for lightning gear/memory/GCs) and max telekinesis, since it is the only source of DR for it. So king in PVP, horrible for PVM.
I tried it. Its meh. Especially on hardcore p8. Right now I'm running an ES light sorc on hardcore. 2k life 2k mana. 25k light dmg without anni or torch since I play single player. Currently level 97.5
1 hard point in ES, Max Telek then balance your life and mana. The life you get from vitality is less than if you would put it in energy for mana. Many godly Hardcore light sorc use this build. My personal opinion is that spending points on Telek is a much better investment than trying to max out lighting synergy.
You can check your potions on your belt by pressing "~" but I see you're able to throw gear out of the cube using a key and clicking on them. How do you do that?
Try swapping out one Soj for a Bahamut's Ring of the Apprentice and use a HOTO instead of the Wizardspike for +2 to skills. You will use less stat points on the HOTO and it is more mana than the Wizspike since you get more base mana, and HOTO has 15% increased mana too. The Oak Sage charges may even be useful since you kill fast enough that it's not in too much danger, and enemies will have another target either way. You could then swap out the other Soj with another Bahamut's Ring of the Apprentice for an Ormus' if it turns out to be more damage, but your resistances would really suffer at that point and probably wouldn't be worth it. Or if you want more MF, use 2 x Bahamut's Ring of Fortune and War Traveller for up to 100% MF while only losing 2 skill levels. I think another Facet in the Wizspike and using a Gheed's instead of one skiller would be more optimal for MF too.
Yes, it's just a lot weaker. You need infinity, but besides that if you sacrifice damage you can get FCR. You can use a suicide branch, skin of the vipermagi, magefist, 2 10fcr rings, a 20fcr circlet, 35fcr spirit, a 10fcr crafted belt and minimum 15fcr crafted ammy. It's not LOW budget but you don't need anything too crazy. But you'd lose a ton of damage from the lack of + skills from arachs, ammy, griffon's and the skillers.
Have you considered trying a phoenix shield for mana? It would lower the Fcr but you shouldn't have any mana problems. It would also make you much more survivable.
I will not be able to play D2 until christmas i remember building a frozen orb sorc and a trapzin along wiith a summoner necro, thx to this video i know what build i will do first which is the sorc here
I had one of the top nova sorcs back in the day. I'm currently rebuilding it. It's an infinity nova sorc with insight on my merc. This opens up more gear options. But I like the frozen orb mentioned here. I'm gonna try that out to help with immunes.
Eu acho que se usar o Campo Estático, para diminuir a vida dos monstros antes, não iria precisar lançar muitas Novas de raio! Mas essa Sorceress ficou incrível!
you dont get packs of lightning immunities . its one guy, its actually better to spec out of frozen orb and get another immunity killer like glacial spike , you have cast speed. use an ability without a cooldown for single target immunities. you cna actually spam ice blast lol and get better performance with this spec on immunities
Missed 1.08 but seems like a very cool build but very intense, no way can you get too close to lord de seis with a sorc or the minions of destruction, still looks like fun though!

Wouldn't it be better to run a 10% fcr ring with high mana + HOTO? You'd gain 2 to all skills
Sweet build, man!
Thought about trying some Caster Boots?
Actually a great idea I didn't think about that!
No ES?
Can this be doable with low budget gear?
Yes, it's just a lot weaker. You need infinity, but besides that if you sacrifice damage you can get FCR. You can use a suicide branch, skin of the vipermagi, magefist, 2 10fcr rings, a 20fcr circlet, 35fcr spirit, a 10fcr crafted belt and minimum 15fcr crafted ammy. It's not LOW budget but you don't need anything too crazy. But you'd lose a ton of damage from the lack of + skills from arachs, ammy, griffon's and the skillers.
i recently made a ghetto sorc max frost nova and max firebolt/meteor then fireball fire mastery full tals works great
How does one use a loot filter?
Have you considered trying a phoenix shield for mana? It would lower the Fcr but you shouldn't have any mana problems. It would also make you much more survivable.
If you just incorporate static into mob pack kills, I feel like this really wouldn't be too terrible on p7.
I will not be able to play D2 until christmas i remember building a frozen orb sorc and a trapzin along wiith a summoner necro, thx to this video i know what build i will do first which is the sorc here
you have any lvl99 on battle net us went non ladder for sale
How can i change the colors of items at the ground in plugy mod?
This sorc was amazing in 1.08 for cows and blood runs.
I have been looking all over google. Any one know what the range of nova is ? 5 yards ?
105 fcr is definitely enough in my opinion. Is aproximately 1 min difference in clearing some specific areas.
...but ofc thumb up.
Great job. bud, is not a prooblem with Lair act 2? With Horadric Staf, i think. Sory, my anglish is too little. :D
Maybe max Enchant for your merc?
The Nova Sorc was my favorite class back in 1.09
someone could tell me what kind of item have purple cap drop in this video.
What about the stats? im newbie
Dbrunski, the kinda guy to study for a blood test ;)
can you make a amazon with spear build :)
How about a infi ES mana sorc?
Could be fun to see a 200 fcr charged bolt sorc. Would melt bosses in a second
I had one of the top nova sorcs back in the day. I'm currently rebuilding it. It's an infinity nova sorc with insight on my merc. This opens up more gear options. But I like the frozen orb mentioned here. I'm gonna try that out to help with immunes.
Can you do a 105 fcr version.
kinda wanna make this work on hc with some block but i feel like its not worth the time/investment
i find how well end-game build balance in this game impressive.
Bit of a lack of MF for a Sorc... does that damped the drops from doing MF runs?
this was a thing when there wasn't synergy but yea with the synergy implemented just lightning sorc is straight up better
coudn't find the atributes stats, wheres it?
How to get Viper Mark?
Eu acho que se usar o Campo Estático, para diminuir a vida dos monstros antes, não iria precisar lançar muitas Novas de raio! Mas essa Sorceress ficou incrível!
Can you help me in my diablo? I couldn't defeat blizzard wiz in the ancients.
Pre LoD power train!! Cows never knew what hit em
Did this build when I first started back in the day. Needless to say I screwed it up but it was still a ton of fun and nightmare
On 1.09 they told me this build would never be viable. Look at us now! Miss my Frozen Orb Firewall runner sorc.
Static Field helps out immensely w this build.
too much skill swapping
you dont get packs of lightning immunities . its one guy, its actually better to spec out of frozen orb and get another immunity killer like glacial spike , you have cast speed. use an ability without a cooldown for single target immunities. you cna actually spam ice blast lol and get better performance with this spec on immunities
What level is she?
Missed 1.08 but seems like a very cool build but very intense, no way can you get too close to lord de seis with a sorc or the minions of destruction, still looks like fun though!
was expecting you to have enigma 😂 just because you have it on every other build 🙈
someone has caught the sun again, tut tut
