[techguru]

Thanks to everyone for the good information..

[techguru]

have you not been board at work yet ;-) waiting on that insta kill update

I finally rolled a sorc and went this route. Just up to level 4, and so far so good.

One question that might be useful for newbs or folks like me who are new to the caster game. What kind of gear setup should we be aiming for- both at low and mid-levels, at higher levels (without raid gear), and including raid gear?

That's the one thing that would make this more user friendly for me, but don't get me wrong, I love it already.

Aspenor doesn't use equipment. He runs around naked so he feels more in tune with the environment and has that light, fresh feeling.

Useful lowbie twink gear:
Greater Potency items for every even level from 2-12, for that extra punch in your DPS spells.
STK ring (everybody loves this item)
ML:4 Fearsome Robe
Charisma items for all levels, preferably race required to get lower minimum levels on the gear (your UMD should be sufficient)
Scepters of Power for low and mid levels.
Fortification items, Light, Moderate, and Heavy, with no other effect on the item

When you say STK ring, you mean the ring of feathers? Or something else?

But thanks for the lowbie list. That helps.

Currently I have a power trinket and am using a potency item and an ice lore (for lack of anything else and to help with niacs) in dual-wielding.

Got the fort item and the charisma cloak. No fearsome robe yet. So far just spearblock (which actually is pretty handy, in my experience in the kobold type quests).

Yes I meant the Ring of Feathers.

the early levels for a nuker are very important, more so then any amount of gear you might have.

You learn how to move and fight as a nuker

Float like butterfly, sting like nuke =)

[miceelf88]

Am mainly soloing thus far until I get comfortable. Between charming and the damage stuff, I am doing okay, but the catacombs are a challenge. I Do find that I run out of SP in some of the longer quests, and still am taking too long to target stuff/having stuff jump out the way of the scorching and niac's rays.

found this relic...bumping. will edit.

when you wrote this extend wasn't nessecary you could stack walls and things would die i think extend is now a must have for a nuker displacment haste Rage are all spells that extend is good for and you use often that mt or imt isn't going to help all that much.

If that 85 sp is what would save u drink a mana pot and have 4-5x that ammount but you can't use a consumable to make a spell last longer.


Extend>mt or imt at this point in the game imo.

in fact, I'm planning on centralizing all these posts, and updating them. I shall make The Sorcerer's Handbook
