Notes

Just TR in iconic chaosmancer.

Heroic gear is esoteric initiate with cc con neck, ac bracers, fire ring, cha ring. VOM, reaper butterfly hat, shimmer, innate arcanum, sofsole slippers and a flame sphere.

So far it’s a lot of buttons that I don’t know what. I haven’t played a sorc in years. Im going primary chaos, but also fire. So far find I cant solo due to HP loss and no heals other than scroll.

The chaos spells have a low MCl?? Is that a problem? On purpose? Am I missing something. They seem to be quite nerfed for dps.

Or do I have to take mixed magics?

I had to take eschew at 18 to stop burning omnidust. Serious QOL. Ill look the better build as I go.

I have a 30 set so that’s the test.

This build may or may not see life at cap. Doing it for iconic and sorc pl.

I have gear at 21. That should carry me to 30. Where I have a new set. Took a month to farm out, but its kinda ready. It may fill from someof the new MD stuff, using 3pc winter still.



20

Made it to 20.

Destiny points. Primal, draconic, shiradi.

Don’t know what im doing here. This may change a lot. Took primal for cocoon. It looks good. So far no good mantle? Shiradi? And no good epic strike. Wow didn’t realize casters are screwed. This was easy choice on my bard. But now I see primal even has sonic in it. Missed that. Oh weel. These destinys are great for their flexibility. I really like that, but im back after 2.5 years, never learned them.

I don’t have a main weapon to sentient at 20.

I have a flame sphere at 21. Fire and insightful fire. I have epic VOM for artifact.

Ill do some 20 pics and 21 pics with new gear.

20-30

This build went thru a lot, a week?., of playthru. At 32 I ended up in PRIMAL< DRACONIC< EXALTED ANGEL.

Since primal has evasion in t4. I don’t need shadowdancer. And I pull the healing epic strike out of EA, along with reborn in fire as a aoe heal. I like to have multiple heals if possible. Also have cocoon.

Ok feat selection in epic. Went with enchant line, then evoc at 31. It averaged a 4pt increase in both over my bard, which had a higher standing cha.

Ruin and greater ruin are your sing tgt destroy buttons.

Fire is at 850 with 50% and 114% crit multi.

Titanias wrath does proc. In reaper im at 3500hp.

Im happy with my build out, it could be better with reaper hat and artifact and profane stats. But it nukes fine in r6. Did some r9, r10 and it’s a different game. As long as you have a tank handling aggro it goes decent, but still slow. With no tank it’s a wipe after every fight. I know, pugs are bad. So im stickingto r6 for ease. I have 120 reaper points, and slow progress is fine.

Im still waiting MD raid items for a rehaul of build gear. I have like 3 pieces to give. Maybe 4. So maybe a new gearing.



I build this gear list from scratch. Starting with the staff, then finding pieces to fill.

Went with a red Abishai ring and a vol set from margrave. Took a bit to farm the helm.

32-34

Played to 34 at myth drannor.

Loot drops seem off. As usual got stuff I didn’t need or want.

As a sorc this build does good enough. Better than most sorcs I imagine. I had 4k hp with the staff and pretty good dps amongst the sorcs I ran with. So it performs. Just not my thing tho. Its too squishy? I tested it fairly well, had too many deaths I feel. But im a often lazy player, so it would be fine if I bounced around more. Its actually pretty strong. However the chaos magics are nerfed so I went with fire. Lot of things have fir e immune, so im going cold if ever again.

The wild mage is ok. I like the purple nuclear blast. I like it ok. Just as usual I run fotm builds so I had to try it out. Really, had more fun farming and gearing for it than running it. But now I have a fire sorc in my pocket. I imagine in the future they will address the wild mage cap problems. And sort the spell powers and have them work right.

So im interested in alchemist. Gonna tr into iconic deep gnome, and lr1 when I get to 20.

As far as wild mage goes 7/10. Maybe more if they fix it better.



But as a note, the wild magic slas I had in myth drannor seemed to do better damage against a lot of critters, like the chaos crawlers. But not enough to make it OP by any means.
