Tips |
Welcome to the OrbSorc Vitabuild Guide by Z3phUseful TipsMake sure you use the 3 inch rule [standing 3 inches away from the target and orbing it lets you do the most damage, because when the orb explodes, it shoots all its ice bolts into the target.] To improve efficiency, kill Mephisto first, then walk through the red portal to act 4, then use the waypoint to go to Andariel. Kill him, then leave. When u make a new game, you will be in Act 1. Use the waypoint to get to Mephisto, and repeat. If you don’t plan to kill them both, kill the one you can get the best drops from. [with <300 magic find, you should kill Andariel. With 300+, you should kill Mephisto. Andariel generally drops better items even if you have low magic find. Always check at least 1 chest [why? Because it's fun to open boxes]. Make sure you have a magic find weapon switch ready to use before you kill a boss. If you don’t know how far you should take the boss down to, 1/10 of its HP should be enough. Remember that the drops are better in a game with more people. Watch out for evil spirits and Mephisto's blizzard attack. Even if meph is at 1 HP, do not try to kill him if you are at low life. [think about how far you teleported to get to level 3] When Andariel dies, everything around her blows up. Its fun to pull her into a bunch of monsters when she’s about to die, and kill her. You get the exp from the monsters that explode too. Don't carry keys if you don't pln to open chests. Don't carry tomes of Town Portals while killing Andariel or Mephisto, It is a waste of room, because you won't use them. Static Field can only reduce life down to half in Hell. Do the Magic Find runs in Hell! But Nightmare works too. Use Hotkeys. Gaining a mastery over the keyboard is much more important than a mastery of anything else. Cast Energy Shield as a buffer to reduce damage that is dealt to you. It will drain your mana, but warmth will recharge it fast enough to continuously cast orb. Do all the quests that give bonuses to statis or skills. These are Act1: Quest1. Act2: Quest 1. Act3: Quest 1&3. Act4: Quest 1. Act5: Quest 3 |
