Just doing a quick solo run through LoD on singleplayer so I thought I'd record hell ancients.
My build is just a standard meteorb sorc (at level 77):
20 Frozen Orb
17 Cold Mastery
20 Meteor
16 Fire Mastery
1 Frozen Armour/Warmth/Static Field/Teleport
115 Str
153 Dex
144 Vit
100 Ene
I like 500 life 300 mana and enough dex for 50+ block and I guess I'm putting str in case I find a stormshield monarch.
My gear is just Rhyme on boneshield for 60 block and 40 fbr, Stealth for res all and 25 fcr, prism ammy, rare circlet, rare orb with fcr, 2 rare fcr rings, and random gloves and boots with res/fhr/frw and 16 slot belt with fhr (bladebuckle). I just focus on res/block/fbr/fhr and 65 fcr.
My merc is act 2 nightmare defensive (holy freeze aura) with a Kelpie and random armour with high def/res/life.
But yeah untwinked meteorb sorc does fine without any +skills, (267 dmg orb and 2.2k dmg meteor), and there are no immunes with orb/meteor/static/merc so it's great for soloing hell with no gear. All I did was some NM countess for runes for rhyme and stealth, drognan for socketed boneshield, and hell meph for kelpie. I saved 6 p gems in case I didn't get a prism ammy, because I could just cube one.
This is by far the fastest build for soloing straight from lvl 1 all the way through act 5 hell without any items to start off.
why the fk is your str and dex so high, any goodjob on soloing I remember leaching this shit all the time
