Best Sorc build, Hardcore mode Undergeared?

Orb/Firewall?
Orb/Metor?
Straight blizzard and MF tunnels, meph , andy?

What do you guys think? I go max block build as well.

If I tried, I would go orb firewall personally with how powerful firewall is right now and how great frozen orb is as a skill on consoles or pc.

A user ā€˜Tec’ gives a great reply that I really like in this thread on how to level and what to aim for:

Tec replies:

Go full vita until mosers, then max block rest vita

Spam some nm Andy and meph early.

Aim for the trifecta: mosers, wizspike, vmagi

Continue to farm nm meph to get a vamp gaze. They’re most common here and will be very useful on a merc. If you find a tals mask first, it’ll be good enough for most hell content. Also is a good spot for aldur boots or war travs.

Get to and start farming ancient tunnels in hell, get elite bases for merc.

At this point, all content in the game will be pretty easy. You will still have to be careful til you have max res with some light sorb. Stay away from areas with souls. Just wait on doing izzy, Anya. Even with a group if it’s a souls map I just leave. I once lost a 97 sorc rushing a friend to souls at Anya.

At this point I prefer to spam chaos runs for xp/ gear. Safe, easy, enjoyable, can run solo or with groups without risk. I’d still run aldur boots and a dwarf

End game set up to look for: shako, vmagi, hoto, stormshield (eld), soj or nice rare ring, wisp, magefists, arachs, aldur boots, maras or caster ammy, infinity merc.

The ā€œwhat to look forā€ Tec suggests aligns really well with this orbwaller build here from Coooley:
