ivonbeton4725: Thanks for explaining, but I do think that these are some HEFTY gear requirements. Simply getting close to the 60% CDR by itself is a tall order.
MashMalloman: Should look up how atk speed cap works, there is 2 categories for 100% each which means depending on what you pick you can waste/benefit from different bonuses, but the actual cap is 200%.
Generally:
Category 1: affix, esu's, atk speed elixer, paragon
Category 2: unstable currents, accelerating aspect, rapid aspect.
Using esu's aspect on necklace, you still have 25% more atk speed before cap in category 1.
With accelerating and unstable currents, you still have 50% more atk speed before cap in category 2.
The best way to capitalize on the cap categories is to put accelerating aspect on your necklace since there isn't anything else but unstable currents.
davidcarpenter4719: Love the builds man. I used your blizzard to push up to 85 still got masterworking to do
VictorLonmo: Great video Josh! There are a couple of approaches to getting permanent flame shield and I think you have covered the best one. Specifically, using ice blades to reduce the cooldown on flame shield once you have the best gear you can get to reduce cooldowns and extend flame shield's duration.
That said, I am trying to use an alternative approach which involves using elemental attunement (thus avoiding teleport during a fight) and using Yen's blessing (thus avoiding cooldowns other than ultimate skills.) Elemental attunement has a cooldown of 10 seconds and Yen's blessing has a cooldown of 12 seconds. Both can reset flame shield. Thus, it is possible to get consistent flame shield if your build can get the cooldown of flame shield below 12 seconds (ie cooldown > 40%) and the duration of flame shield to at least 4 seconds. If there is a problem deep freeze can provide immunity and it will reset the cooldown on flame shield with three points allocated to it.
I am still working on the gear but I will get there... I do not have a Shako and not having one makes both approaches difficult.
In any case, thanks for going over this.
loungechair1424: maxroll's pit leaderboard actually has a sorc on top, with a 139 clear atm
fateric007: I finally got Tibault's Will today.
boogienightsmarkwahlberg6011: If you could get 100% uptime on FS, you really wouldn't need any extra armor/DR/ res anywhere right?
Seems like you could add a ton of extra damage
dontcare7086: I am done with sorcerer. I reach lvl 100 and 3 paragon boards and this is the 5th new build in like 4 days. I can't deal with this class anymore.
thoso1973: Or, just switch between FS and Ice Armor when needed so one is always on. While it doesn't give you 100% immunity to dmg, it's much easier to make the build.
MrMak2121: Good stuff man!
The grind for the cooldown is real!
michaelwolejszo6445: Buddy of mine just retired his sorc. Said not enough damage output compared to other classes. Sure it's tanky, but boring.
