--INTRODUCTION--
================
Welcome to my Cold Sorceress guide for Diablo II. This guide will instruct
you on how to build a very potent cold sorceress for yourself.
Cold sorceresses are very good for magic-finding, dueling, or just as
all-around characters. Cold sorceresses are also very easy to use, as
opposed to Fire and Lightning sorceresses.
So, without further ado, let's get started with the basics.
+++++++++++++++
-Build Rundown-
+++++++++++++++
There are many different sorceress builds you should probably know about.
You may want to reconsider your build options after reading this.
Cold Sorceresses (The one covered in this guide) have it really easy, and
as such, are the majority of Sorceresses on Battle.net. This is because the
two main builds (Blizzard and Orber) both have some very powerful skills at
their disposal. Plus, aiming your attacks isn't so much of an issue with
Cold sorceresses.
Fire sorceresses and Lightning sorceresses are for the more skilled. These
builds require you to have good aim, as the skills these builds use aren't
easy to aim at all. You have one directional attack, and that's it. Unless,
of course, you decide to invest some skill points into some of their other
skills. But those builds tend to suck, to be blunt.
+++++++++++++++
-The Objective-
+++++++++++++++
My objective in this guide is to have every reader who follows this guide
be equipped with a ass-kicking, blizzard/orb-slinging sorceress. Also, said
sorceress should at least be able to hold their own in duels, and be usable
to a degree in single-player games, and be able to be self-sufficient.
That being said, please don't get on my case if you followed my guide, yet
still cannot do a Hell Chaos run on your own.
If you have a legitimate complaint, or some constructive feedback, please
do drop me a line at the contacts section. I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
++++++++++++
-B.Net Tips-
++++++++++++
Before we get started, there's a few things I'd like to say that should
immensely help you out in the world of Diablo II.
1. Make friends on battle.net. Make friends with people high up, who are
well-known and somewhat respected. Then learn from their technique. This is
how you will move up through the ranks. Enter duel games. Observe duel
techniques. This might be easier said than done, but if you aren't a
complete tool on Battle.net, you'll be fine.
2. Friends also will help you out with equipment needs, as well as leveling
assistance and backup, should you be outnumbered in a duel.
3. Don't smack-talk unless you can back it up. Good way to get a negative
reputation online quickly. Then you won't be able to level in peace anymore
without some idiot toggling hostile and handing your ass back to you.
4. Begging for items is bad form. Make friends and mooch off of THEM.
That's what friends are for. (Just kidding.)
5. Watch out for clans. Most of the ones I've run into on Battle.net tend
to be aggressive. That isn't to say all of them are, however.
6. If you are leveling/getting a rush in a game, and suddenly, one (or two)
odd person joins the game, but doesn't talk, party, or even appear in town,
then be careful. The person might be killing bosses (fine if you don't need
the quests), or running the Sanctuary. The latter will end the game, so be
careful.
===================
--Skills N' Stats--
===================
Skill point time! Do note that I'll only be listing the skills you
absolutely need here, and how many points you need for each. If I should
have forgotten a prerequisite, grab that along the way, and drop me a line
and let me know, please!
1.13 update: When you complete the first quest in Act I, Akara will now give
you the ability to reset all your stat and skill points. This can only be
used ONCE (Not sure if it's per difficulty yet), so be sure you save it for
a damned good reason. Using it for a build switch isn't advised unless you
already have proper equipment for the build you want to switch to.
++++++++
-Skills-
++++++++
If you're going for the Blizzard build, I recommend this:
Lightning:
Skill---------------Points
Charged Bolt        1
Lightning           1
Telekinesis         1
Teleport            1
Energy Shield       1
Cold:
Skill---------------Points
IceBolt             Max
Frozen Armor        1
Frost Nova          1
Ice Blast           Max
Glacial Spike       Max
Blizzard            Max
Shiver Armor        1
Mastery             Max
As for Frozen Orb build:
Lightning:
Skill---------------Points
Charged Bolt        1
Lightning           1
Telekinesis         1
Teleport            Max or 1, depends on variant
Energy Shield       See below
Cold:
Skill---------------Points
Ice Bolt            Max
Frozen Armor        1
Frost Nova          1
Ice Blast           1
Glacial Spike       1
Blizzard            1
Frozen Orb          Max
Mastery             Max
You may wonder why you have to max out Glacial Spike, Ice Bolt, etc as well
as Blizzard/Orb. This is because of a new game mechanic introduced in
version 1.10 and used until further notice.
Said mechanic is known as "Synergy", and it allows certain skills to gain
additional power due to your expertise in other skills. Let me present an
example.
Say you have Frozen Orb. Frozen Orb tops out at about 400 damage (This is
purely example. No truth here). Frozen Orb is linked via synergy to Ice
Bolt, which for every additional point in Ice Bolt, Frozen Orb gets an
additional 20% of damage.
This makes it mission-critical to max out all skills linked via Synergy. Or
at least the ones which layer on the most damage to your build's skill.
That extra damage is invaluable in the long run.
Most of the skills you are putting one point into are nothing but
prerequisites and should just be ignored. However, the two that stand out
from that category are Energy Shield and Teleport, the latter of which is
probably THE required sorceress skill for duels.
NOTE: I spoke with a few friends, and I have heard of a few people saying
that Energy Shield is NOT recommended for PvP. The idea behind including it
as a necessary skill is because mana potions are legal to use in duels.
Health potions are not. Hence, ES will help you last a bit longer in duels,
or give you the upper hand.
As Marcus says in Borderlands: "Someone always has the upper hand. Make it
be you." Or something like that.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
-Skill Points Break Down-
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
1.13: Again, I remind you to re-read the point I made above about Akara
having the ability to reset your Stats/Skills.
If you're playing offline, or on a private LAN on patch 1.12 or below,
follow this section down to the letter. There is no second chance for you
guys.
Let's assume your character is going to top out at Level 80. That means,
not counting quests, you have roughly 79 skill points to allocate.
If we do all the quests, I believe we have around 4 skill points per
difficulty extra. That means 12 extra skill points. (I know I am probably
wrong here--This is just a rough estimate.)
Each skill takes 20 points to max out. So, let's break it down:
Blizzard Sorceresses:
91 points starting (Assuming all quests done, all difficulties)
It'll take 80 points just to get the attacking spells maxed out for optimum
damage. Add in cold mastery and you're well over your limit. However,
Blizzard does a pretty insane amount of damage, so you can afford to lose
some damage on it. Focus on Mastery, which cuts opponents' resistance to
you.
One point in teleport and energy shield is also critical. Without these
skills, you're toast in ANY duel.
If you're going frozen orb, then there's only 3 skills that need to be maxed
for optimum damage, leaving the door wide open for another skill to be given
star treatment. I recommend Energy Shield (to make you a tank) or Teleport
(speedy teleport, and at only few MP per cast, allows you to recover mana
while you teleport. Genius.)
+++++++
-Stats-
+++++++
You have about 400 stat points to spend throughout the life of your
sorceresses, assuming you stop at level 80, and you don't do Lam Esen's
Tome in Act 3. (That'll net you 15 stat points if you do it once for each
difficulty.)
Strength: As high as needed, but keep as low as possible. If you can get
away with keeping it around 40-50, that'll be excellent.
(Alternate: 35. No higher.)
Dexterity: Like strength. Keep it as low as possible. 51 is good, as it
allows use of the Spectral Shard, the main weapon of choice for Duelists.
(Alternate: Boost via equipment. Do not go over 35 without equipment.)
Vitality: Every point that isn't going into anything else should be put
into Vitality. By around Level 70, you should be edging close to 1,000 Life
(With equipment that adds to your life).
Energy: Try not to put ANY points whatsoever into this stat. AuralFire and
Anticitizen (Orb and Blizzard sorcs, respectively) both have 50-70 into
Energy because I think that's a pretty good comfort zone. It really depends
on where you are comfortable, but a common rule is no more than 70 at the
most.
(Alternate: None into this stat, but if you're itching for more mana, throw
on a set of Frostburns.)
(Again, I remind you that Akara can reset your skills and stats, so if you
screw up your stat spreads, you can rectify it.)
++++++++++
-Grinding-
++++++++++
So, now comes the boring part of the game, the grinding part. There are
some methods you can do to speed it up during the first 60 levels, but
after that it's pretty much an endless grinding spree to push your level as
high as the sky.
----------------
-Levels 1 to 20-
----------------
You'll either be flying solo or having the assistance of a chanter for this
one. If you have a chanter assisting you, skip to Stony Field.
Otherwise, you'll be alone with a staff that grants you Fire Bolt and
that's just about it. With as low mana as you have at this point, you'll
probably have to resort to smacking enemies with your staff. It's okay for
now. Once you gain some levels, definitely throw some into Ice Bolt, which
will give you a passable attack that gains more power with a constant mana
cost. (If you're going the orber route, you should be maxing this skill
now. Blizzard builds should put as many points as possible into this skill
until Ice Blast opens up, then as many points into Ice Blast until Glacial
Spike opens up, and so on.)
If you are one of the lucky ones who has a friend with a chanter, you
should be joining us at this point. If you go this route, you should run
over to Charsi, buy a usable bow, some arrows, and then get to the Stony
Field waypoint where your friend should be waiting for you. Don't worry if
your Attack Rating sucks--Enchant gives it a pretty sizable boost.
You'll want to slowly (emphasis on slowly if you aren't blessed with a
chanter) work your way through Act 1, eventually making your way to
Andariel. If you have a ton of friends with you and you are all around
level 15, it shouldn't be exceedingly difficult to take her down. Once
she's dead, you can either begin Act 2, or if that's too difficult for you,
hang around in Act 1 and get to Level 20.
By the time you hit 20, you should have an Ice Bolt that is pretty well
leveled, with one point each into Blizzard's prerequisites. Orbers should
have Ice Bolt near maxed, moving right along toward Orb. Both builds should
consider moving towards picking up Teleport around now.
-----------------
-Levels 20 to 50-
-----------------
At this point, you'll want to join a Cow game--that is, a group of people
running through the cow level.
I'd strongly recommend messaging all your friends and running the cow level
ONLY with your friends. There are some total jerks on Battle.net who will
bomb your game by killing the Cow King, which, if the killer is in your
party, will disallow anyone in the party from setting up the Cow Level
portal in the future.
Once your character gets to Lv. 30, you'll probably want to move into
Nightmare Cow runs. (You CAN start at 25, but 30's pretty comfortable.)
You can run the Nightmare cow level until you hit Lv. 45 or 50. By then,
I'd stop.
By now, you should have a decently leveled Orb/Blizzard which should be
more than enough to carry you through easily. Also, you should at least
have Teleport by now. If you are going for the Orb build, your Ice Bolt
should be maxed.
-----------------
-Levels 50 to 70-
-----------------
You should do Nightmare Chaos runs until around 60 or so. When you get
there, get to Hell Act 2 and run through the desert killing things (In full
games, preferably). You should be able to hit 70 easy doing this.
------------
-70 Onwards-
------------
Once you hit 70, it's pretty straightforward from here. Just do Hell Chaos
runs until you hit your desired level. I stopped at 80, though it certainly
is possible to go further. May luck be with you.
=========================
--Recommended Equipment--
=========================
Obviously the skills and stats were the least of our problems. Now we have
to figure out what kind of equipment we are going to use. The good news is
that you'll likely get this stuff from some caring people as you build up
your levels. Don't trip too hard on this stuff until you get to level
70-ish.
This can't be said enough, but don't sweat it on the defense stat on any of
these items. Defense does nothing for your character, besides maybe giving
you a really small chance of surviving physical attacks.
If I Barbarian Whirlwinds you, you're likely not going to survive. But if
you do, you'll probably flinch to the point where he'll have another
opening to
finish you off.
Just saying.

You'll want to hold on to those two armors because you'll want one set of
armorfor Sorceress vs. Sorceress duels (a good portion of which are usually
coldelemental duels, hence the Hawkmail), and one for everything else. This
way, no base is exactly uncovered.
Pat Gilsdorf would also like to point out that Wands have become a viable
option in patch 1.11. They now have triple resistances (all three
elements), have Faster Cast Rate, and makes a great powerhouse. Of course,
don't expect skill bonuses from Wands.
Additionally, he adds that the Iratha set is a great set on the low end of
things as it adds resistance and a few other bonuses.
=======================
--The Chaos Sanctuary--
=======================
I figure I'd give this it's own section because It's where a lot of people
new to the leveling game run into problems. (Yours truly was at one point,
included among those.)
So, the Chaos Sanctuary. What is it?
The Chaos Sanctuary is widely regarded as the best place to earn experience
when you hit the upper echelon of levels (around 70-99). Experience gain
slows to a crawl as you hit the high levels, and the Chaos Sanctuary has a
gigantic amount of powerful monsters which yield decent experience, all
packed into one location.
You would really think that it's all cut-and-dry, but it isn't. There are
some special techniques to running the Sanctuary (Or CS, as it's called in
in-game conversation.)
+++++++++
-Shrines-
+++++++++
You may happen upon shrines in the Sanctuary. Some of them may be
completelyuseless. The one you need to be looking out for is the Experience
Shrine. Whatever you do, do not touch this shrine!
The Experience Shrines are reserved for the party member with the highest
level. As you gain levels, it begins to become very difficult to level up,
hence the reason the shrines are reserved for the higher-ups. It might be a
stupid rule, but it's an unwritten one in most of the sanctuary runs
nonetheless.
If you are the highest level character in the game, by all means, go for
it.
+++++++++++++
-Teleporting-
+++++++++++++
Since you ARE a Sorceress, after all, you may be asked to do something
known among the experienced as "Sora", which basically means to teleport as
fast as possible to the center of the Sanctuary (Where Diablo appears), and
throw down a Town Portal to let everyone else through.
If you are inexperienced, obviously this is no easy task. Considering good
Sanctuary runs thrive on having a sorceress available for this (and more
likely than not, it's usually you), you need to be prepared.
As far as equipment: You'll want some stuff with good resistances and stuff
that boosts your casting rate. Stock cast rate will only ensure your
untimely demise, and contempt from your fellow Sanctuary-runners in the
game.
Start by filling your belt with half Super Health Potions and Super Mana
potions. Use Full Rejuvs if you have some to spare.
Next, get down to the River of Flame waypoint, and cast Shiver Armor and
Energy Shield on yourself. If there's a barbarian in the game, MAKE him
come down to the waypoint and cast all his buffs on you as well (Battle
orders, etc.)
Now, position your fingers over the 1-4 keys, and hold down the right mouse
button, not letting go until you hit the center of the Sanctuary. If your
Life or Mana dips below 60%, use a potion. (If you are using rejuv's, you
can wait until around the 30% mark.)
Once the sora is complete, I'd stay off the Teleport unless you need to use
it to back yourself out of a crowd of enemies. For everything else,
teleport will only get you killed and/or get others killed.
+++++++
-Seals-
+++++++
There's not much to say on the Seals. Just don't go and pull 'em when there
are people in the area where the monsters are going to appear AFTER you
pull the seal. It's common sense.
++++++++++++
-Riverwalks-
++++++++++++
Just thought I'd drop this in here. Riverwalks as they are called are no
more than extended Sanctuary runs. These do not require a sora of any sort,
as riverwalks consist of everyone meeting at the River Of Flame waypoint,
and moving as one party from there.
There is no teleport-then-portal mess to worry about, making this the ideal
leveling tactic for lower-level characters or games with no sorceress.
==============================
--Zen and the art of Dueling--
==============================
At some point, you may wonder what all the hubbub about dueling is. Once
you've completed the game and are more or less satisfied with your
character's build, the only things left to do are to continually run the
Chaos Sanctuary until you max out, kill bosses for items, or duel. We'll be
focusing on the latter of these.
There are a few things you might want to know before jumping into the world
of dueling.
The first is that you MUST have teleport. Must. If you don't, then this is
pretty much negating the sorceress' main advantage in duels.
The second: Most duel games are held in the Hell difficulty. This means
that your resistances will take a -50 hit. Make sure you have a LOT of
resistance gear on, or you'll get toasted. (Or Minced. Or frozen. Insert
whatever you'd like here.)
I'd also suggest switching your skill hotkeys to something more convenient
to your potion keys (Which cannot be changed, IIRC). Mine are Q, W, E, R
for the first four skill hotkeys. Whatever's comfortable for you.
And do note: DO NOT use health potions in duels. That's considered
cheating.
If you are playing an Orber, keep in mind of the Orb's break point. Right
when it explodes, if you can catch an opponent in the epicenter of the
explosion, it'll do insane damage. (Credit Patrick G. for this one)
Also, your damage toward any other player is automatically cut by 75%. Why?
Because your Orbs and Blizzard would be landing one hit kills.
And that's no fun.
++++++++++++++++
-PALADIN BUILDS-
++++++++++++++++
Paladins are probably going to be a giant thorn in your side. One of the
builds is bloody quick, the other has a guaranteed hit against you. The
third is weaksauce. The latter you'll hardly ever see in a duel game on
B.net unless the user is a total idiot.
-------------
-Hammer-Dins-
-------------
ADVANTAGE: Equal
This can be a difficult fight if the Paladin knows what he's doing. At
least, the only thing he'll do Charge around and drop hammers at random,
trying to get you to trip on one of them and die. At most, he'll take
advantage of a small little trick that will allow him to instantly appear
right on your character's location, making you like a lamb to the
slaughter. Best way to avoid this is to keep moving while remaining
offensive.
It'd be worthwile to note that the Hammers originate from the right side of
the Paladin. So stay away from that area at all costs.
As far as offense, you'll just have to drop random blizzards and hope
he walks into one. Getting close enough to drop a blizzard right on him
might be too risky, unless he's reloading on mana. Orbers can just go crazy
here. No accuracy involved.
---------------------
-Fist Of The Heavens-
---------------------
ADVANTAGE: Opponent
This duel is insanely difficult, and I highly recommend (If you're the
"pick your battles" type) just staying out of this fight altogether.
If you insist on fighting, read on.
Maximum lightning resists are a requirement here. So is Energy Shield.
Don't even duel if you don't have these skills.
Unless you're going for the kill, stay out of range. Otherwise you're in
for a pummeling.
If you are going to try to kill him, give it your all--because once you're
within range of his primary attack, you're dead if you don't kill him
first. Expect him to have maximum cold resistance.
This is clearly a "Kill him before he kills you" scenario.
As an additional tidbit, your Energy Shield will not soak 100% of his
attacks. So move fast.
----------
-AuraDins-
----------
ADVANTAGE: You, definitely
This should be mentioned since I have seen these builds wandering B.net
here and there.
In a nutshell, these Paladins rely on Auras to do damage to you. The only
thing that could do major damage is Thorns, which shouldn't affect you as
you don't use physical attacks. However, if this is a partied duel, then
Auradins become far more effective.
Alone, however, they are easy to pick off. Just run in and unload some
spells on him. The resist cold aura could make things difficult, but he can
only have one aura active at one time, so this leaves him wide open to
attack.
Unless he charges you to death. Keep your distance.
++++++++++++
-BARBARIANS-
++++++++++++
You are dealing with two builds here. One's easy, one's insanely difficult.
-----------
-BvB Build-
-----------
ADVANTAGE: In some contexts, Opponent. Most of the time: You.
If a barbarian rushes you with Barbarian vs. Barbarian dueling gear on,
that person is either 1. Ready to lose, 2. A total idiot, or 3. Has some
sort of master plan. In my case, it's always been a combination of 1 and 2.
There's no plan to it. Just run away, blitzing said idiot with
Blizzards/Orbs. He'll die quick enough.
-----------
-BvS Build-
-----------
ADVANTAGE: Opponent, definitely
Okay, quick warning: This battle is NOT for the feint of heart. If you are
seasoned, are convinced you want to pick a fight with a stacked Barbarian
(Lord help you.), then read on.
We can already draw a couple assumptions from the outset, and things aren't
looking good for you at all. We can assume this barbarian has over 3,000
HP, and that he has some serious points invested into Natural Resistance.
Not only that, he has Hawkmail and a ton of other cold-resist items,
boosting his cold resistance well into the 200% range. Any damage you can
dish will be minimal at best. Not only that, you cannot slow him with your
cold, meaning he'll be able to keep up with you.
I can suggest a few preparations for this battle. You'll want to make sure
the conditions favor you as much as possible on Blood Moor as well. Lots of
rocks, houses, trees, etc. For the Barbarian to trip over.
Secondly, empty out your entire inventory. Everything. Including your
Horadric Cube. You'll need the space. After that's done, run over to Akara,
and buy as many mana potions as you can cram into your belt and Inventory.
(No health potions whatsoever.)
Cast energy shield on yourself. Keep it hotkeyed-you'll need to recast it a
few times during the duration of this war. You can cast Cold/Frozen/Shiver
Armor on yourself, but if the Barbarian has Hawkmail, those skills are
pretty much rendered useless.
Third: You'll possibly want to clear the Blood Moor of monsters if at all
possible. Once the Barbarian runs out of Mana, he can Whirlwind the
monsters for free Mana and Health, prolonging the battle even longer. (This
is due to mana/health absorb on weapons he has.)
With that out of the way, let's get to the meat of the discussion: The
battle itself.
You'll want to put as much distance as possible between you and the
barbarian right from the outset. Take note of where all the shrines are
(Especially the Health and Mana ones. The Wells too.)
What you need to do is bait the Barbarian into using his Whirlwind
mistakenly on you to burn up his mana. If the Barbarian also whirlwinds and
misses, it's also an excellent chance to sneak in a hit as well.
The rule of the battle is: He who runs out of Mana first loses.
If your belt runs out or low on Mana, duck behind a cluster of objects and
begin refilling your belt. If the barbarian gets too close, teleport off
and continue to run while reloading your belt. If you need some more mana
but have none in your belt, you could quickly pop one from your inventory
or hit a mana shrine.
If there's a Mana recharge shrine in the area, good on you. Get it before
the barbarian does.
The gist of this battle is to keep running away while sneaking in attacks
every now and then when the chance presents itself. Don't hesitate to pick
up Mana potions that have dropped off dead monsters if the need presents
itself.
Eventually, one of you will burn through his entire mana stock, and will
either have to submit to a pummeling, or run to town and declare defeat.
May luck be with you on this endless battle.
+++++++++++++++
-AMAZON BUILDS-
+++++++++++++++
Amazons can be your worst nightmare. Both builds have pretty good odds on
you, so you'll need to be swift and deadly to win.
------------
