Charged Boltress
By DjinnNTawnik
We've all played the Sorceress at least once in our D2 careers. Yes it is great fun Teleporting around and Frozen orbing everything to death and laying the place to waste like. But if you're like me you longed for something more. The purpose of this guide is not to preach about my fav skills or tell you exactly how to make a cow killing machine, those guides are out there and there are tons of them. I am simply trying to show an alternative.
The Charged Boltress
As the name so aptly states, this is a build where the Sorc uses (gasp!) Charged Bolt (CB) as her main killing skill. We've all put at least one point into CB in the past and let it slip into the background as we picked up nova and thunder storm (TS). Don't let the low damage from the bolts fool you, this is a powerful skill, when used properly with only a couple of others, and for all you cow runners out there don't fret it will just take a little more planning to make burgers out of those hell bovines.
Let’s take a look at the Charged Bolt Skill
It starts at a min/max damage of 2/4 per bolt with 3 bolts (and that’s the important thing.)
CB adds +1 min/max for every two levels, and an extra bolt every level
At lvl 20 that’s 22 bolts, at 13/15 damage.
Sounds kinda crappy, well lets look at it wit lightning mastery thrown in;
A lvl 20 LM will add 278% damage to your CB
that’s 49/56 damage per bolt and 22 bolts. So if a creature gets hit with all of the bolts (Which is very likely, I do it all the time) then that creature takes 1078/1232 damage for only 12 mana. This is my meph killer technique. Now I know you're saying holy crap that’s a lot (Ohh Yeah). And with the synergies if you throw even one point into lightning then your damage goes up to 1142/1305 and all of this is for only 12 mana. Name me another spell that has that much damage potential for 12 mana and I’ll eat my hat.
Stats,
Stats are pretty general,
Str. - only enough to use your equipment
Dex. – If you’re using a shield then keep enough dex to max your block, otherwise move along.
Vit. – I can’t stress this one enough. The charged boltress needs to be close enough to hit enemies with multiple bolts, so you’re going to need lots of hp. Around 200+
Nrg. – This is your bread and butter. Even with maxed warmth you need to pump this stat for all it's worth. I suggest around 200+
Skills,
Okay I'm going to break down the usefulness and Unusefullness of every sorc skill then go into what you need to make your Boltress work.
Fire Skills
Fire Bolt (lvl 1) - This is your basic fire skill, it throws a ball of fire at an enemy. It’s
okay till you hit lvl 2.
Warmth (lvl 1) – This is a bread and butter skill it increases your mana regeneration rate
who could ask for more. The rate of regen stacks with any regen from items.
Inferno (lvl 6) – This turns your Sorc into a flamethrower. While this sounds like a good
thing, the cost to sustain this spell at higher lvls is counter productive for
the Boltress
Blaze (lvl 12) – This skill produces a flame trail while you run. The bad thing about this
skill is that the creatures actually have to run through the fire to be
harmed. Again the mana usage is counter productive for the Boltress.
Fire Ball (lvl 12) – A rapid fire projectile that does splash damage. It’s an okay skill, but
you’ll find better, besides, with a charged boltress, your CB takes care
of your projectiles.
Fire Wall (lvl 18) – This is the highest damage spell that the Sorceress has. You cast a
stationary wall of fire that the creatures have to walk through to be
damaged. Not too many creatures can withstand a high lvl firewall
Enchant (lvl 18) – Adds fire damage to your melee weapon. The boltress is not a melee
char, but if you want to try a hybrid melee boltress go ahead.
Meteor (lvl 24) – Rains down a meteor from the sky, and does good splash damage.
Damage to mana ratio is good, so you might want to consider this skill
as a crowd control thing.
Hydra (lvl 30) – The guardian spell makes its return from Diablo as Hydra. The casting
delay limits you to 5 hydras at a time, but for the boltress this spell is
great for killing the stragglers who somehow make it through your CB
Fire Mastery (lvl 30) – This increases your fire damage. For boosting your fire skill
damage, there’s nothing better.
Cold Skills
Ice Bolt (lvl 1) – Your basic cold skill. Like fire bolt, its okay till you hit lvl 2.
Frozen Armor (lvl 1) - This adds a defense bonus and freezes any monster that hits you.
NICE. Still you don’t want to go too crazy with the points in this
skill.
Frost Nova (lvl 6) – A frozen ring of death. This throws out a 360 degree ring of cold. It
chills enemies. Good for crowd control because it covers a lot of
ground.
Ice Blast (lvl 6) – A more powerful version of Ice bolt this freezes monsters, but the
boltress has other skill that cover this area.
Shiver Armor (lvl 12) – This is a more powerful version of Frozen Armor. This skill
dosen’t freeze monsters, but it adds an amount of cold damage
and chills monsters when they attack you.
Glacial Spike (lvl 18) – Glacial Spike is a more powerful version of Ice blast. It has a
heavy mana cost, but the splash damage it does is kinda nice.
Dosen’t freeze monsters, only chills them.
Blizzard (lvl 24) – This spell rains down shards from the sky that freeze and damage
monsters over a fixed radius. This spell has crazy damage and is great
for crowd control.
Chilling Armor (lvl 24) – Big defense bonuses, and in addition to damaging and chilling
melee attackers this armor retaliates against ranged attackers.
Frozen Orb (lvl 30) – Fires an orb which shoots spikes in a 360 degree pattern. This is
the most widely used cold skill among Sorceresses. The Charged
Boltress dosen’t touch this skill
Cold Mastery (lvl 30) – Doesn’t boost damage, but it lowers enemy cold resist. A couple
of points here would help the Boltress a lot.
Lightning Skills
Charged Bolt (lvl 1) – This is the Boltress’ Bread and butter. Anyone whose been killed
by a lightning enchanted monster can attest to the power of this
skill. I’ll go into this one in a bit.
Static Field (lvl 6) – This is an Act boss killer skill. It reduces the enemies HP by 25%
more points only increase the range of this skill.
Telekinesis (lvl 6) – Only one point in this skill is needed. It does knock back, but it’s
real power is opening chests, doors, barrels etc, and even picking up
items
Nova (lvl 12) – This skill has the quickest cast rate of any sorc spell, but it’s damage is
very random. This is yet another spell that has made a return from Diablo
Lightning (lvl 12) – This throws a Lightning bolt that pierces enemies. The line that the
bolt travels is very thin and it has a casting delay.
Chain Lightning (lvl 18) – This fires a lightning bolt that arcs to multiple enemies. Again
it has a casting delay, and the damage isn’t very great.
Teleport (lvl 18) – A good skill for getting away from sticky situations. More points
decrease mana cost.
Thunder Storm (lvl 24) – This skill is a hybrid Active Passive skill. You have to cast the
TS, but after that it follows you around and zaps anything that
gets too close till it’s duration runs out.
Energy Shield (lvl 24) – This absorbs a percentage of the damage a creature deals to you
and subtracts it from your mana reserve.
Lightning Mastery (lvl 30) – Does a big boost to your Lightning damage nuff said.
Alright, now that you have some idea as to how the skill break down lets take a look at the skills your going to use as a Charged Boltress.
Lightning
Charged Bolt (duh)
Thunder Storm
Energy Shield
Cold
Blizzard
Chilling Armor
Fire
Firewall, Meteor, or Hydra.
Skill allocation.
The purpose of this section is not to tell you how to dole out every point during the game, but it will give you an idea of how I did it. The main thing one needs to understand is that the Charged Boltress is all about Crowd Control. Your skills should break down like this
Cold
Ice Bolt – 1 Use only as a pre requisite
Frozen Armor – 1, this is only useful until you get Shiver Armor
Frost Nova - 1
Ice Blast - 1
Shiver Armor – 1-5
Glacial Spike - 1
Blizzard – Max, this is one of your biggest crowd control spells.
Chilling Armor – 1-5
Frozen Orb – Don’t touch, I know it’s hard, but fight the urge.
Cold Mastery – only a couple of points are needed here 1-3
Fire
Fire Bolt
Warmth – Max, the quicker your mana regen the more efficient your are.
Inferno – 1, only use this as a pre requisite
Blaze – Again only as a pre requisite
Fire Ball – 1 only use as a pre requsite.
Fire Wall – This is a matter of preference, Max either this of Meteor, or Hydra
Enchant – if Your going hydras, then use this as a pre requsite.
Meteor – Again a matter of preference, max this or Fire Wall, or Hydra
Hydra – A matter of preference max this or Meteor or Fire Wall
Fire Mastery – 1-3 only a couple of points here.
Lightning
Charged Bolt – Max, You can cover the screen with bolts for very little mana.
Static Field – 1, the only thing this should be used for is killing bosses.
Telekinesis – 1, use this for opening chests and boxes.
Nova, 1, use as a pre requisite for T-Storm
Lightning - This synergizes with CB for bigger damage, Max it if you can
Chain Lightning - 1, use as a pre requisite.
Teleport – Varies, This is one of those skills where you add as many points as you feel
necessary.
Thunder Storm - 5
Energy Shield – 1-9 this depends on how much mana you’re willing to give up.
Lightning Mastery – Max. This boosts for big damage.
Basically I doled out my skill points, so that every other level I threw a point into charged bolt. Focus on crowd control. Get frozen orb at lvl 12, and go from there.
Playing
Normal:
Your Boltress should have almost no trouble getting through Normal. Durriel is kinda a pain, but you’ll have less of a problem with the Chaos Sanctuary than others. After you beat Baal do some cows and Blood runs till you’re lvl 40
Nightmare:
Concentrate on your resistances, and try your best to max your blizzards here I recommend not going on with nightmare until lvl 40 at least.
Hell:
By this time you’ll be glad you invested in all three skill trees. You’ll have skills to handle all types of immunes. Start this difficulty at like lvl 70
The basic thing to remember with your Boltress is that you have to be a little closer to the action than other Sorcs. In order for your CB to have the effect it needs some times you have to cast it Point Blank. This is tough, but with the right equipment you should be okay. Use your Blizzard for crazy damage and freezing, and your choice of Fire skill the way you need. For meteors, use this just like blizzards. Fire walls have to be cast in groups of at least twos to be effective, and Hydras should be used as sentries for any creature that by some miracle slips past your CB.
