First time sorc advice?

Im looking to make a sorc for the upcoming ladder.

Never really played her too much, but i know one of the main struggles may be immunes, more even if playing alone (as i use to do most of time)

So any advice for a sorc intended to play alone often? should choose 2 or even go tri-elemental? Any general build tips?

Thanks in advance.

Tri elemental I’ve never tried. Seems like you’re spreading your talent points too thin, although it might work on single player players 1-2.

If I were you, I’d try dual elements, and get your merc a big damage weapon. Say you are fire/cold, and you run into a fire/cold immune, you can still hit it with static field to drop it’s hit points while your merc bashes it. Keep feeding him/her potions and you’ll end up killing it.

Agree with the first respondant. Personally, I run a hybrid orb/chain lightning sorc with an Act 2 holy freeze merc, and she rips! I can farm literally any area in the game, and in the very rare case that a cold/lightning immune monster appears, I just strip away the minions and let the merc take it out. No need to “moat trick” Meph, I can take him out in less than 10 seconds, etc. etc. Give it a try…
