Just roll a WF sorc instead, so much easier to hit 20 then TR, or hit epic cap then ER -> TR.
Unless you really want that BF life Tongue

i would always prefer 15-28 over 1-28. would like to play at cap, otherwise i would just do 1-20.

I'd greatly appreciate a build and play guide for 1-20 on a Shiradi sorc, for those who have done that kind of thing before.

Hey, it might be gg for you, but midwits like myself like hearing the reasoning behind choices in enhancement trees and the various synergies between them.

The SLAs never seemed to do that much damage, even with the free max and empower added to it.  How much damage is normal/optimal at different levels?

I'd never have thought that high FvS levels and lower wizard/sorc levels would have had such synergy with MM, as long as you had the right equipment to boost the numbers of missiles you throw.  And what spells work well with shiradi anyway, other than MM?  Firewall seems to trigger a lot, but running with only magic missiles and chain missiles seems to give me the only real chance to complete some quests, due to the low sp cost.

I've read the vault for a few years now, and have found it's a damn good resource for seeing how elite players and characters think.  But throw it into a lower gear, please.  What's obvious to you isn't obvious to everyone else, and the more I know and can explain to the people I play with, the better the PUGs will go and the easier I can pull my 70-year-old dad through the game.

I used atomic's thread for my last sorc life.

https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/447048-Epic-Completionist-Shiradi-Sorc...

also check out sestra's/secure's build threads. He goes over choices extensively and there is a ton of info there.

int base on a sorc??
why waste 3 monk levels just for 5% run speed?
whats the point in twist in energy burst with only 48 int ( and thats at lv 28) ! wont hit anything on ee. enrgy burst dc is 20 + 1/2 char + int mod ; so 20 + 14+ 19 = 53 . and thats at cap  LMAO how can that hit anything on ee ? thats a waste
soloing those quests shown at lv 28 is nothing worth mention. try solo it at lv 24 -26 then it would be impressive.
*shakes head* i though you know better rubbin

would be far better to go char base, and pally instead of monk,
higher saves, heavy armor feat free from pally, much better ac,prr,mrr .

yeah for more spell power yes. well iguess its a matter of choice. more dps or more surviveability.

not sure if i should post this screenshot, cos its not a sorc, but still its char base and pally splash. but you could see whats saves looks like, even if its a fvs. i imagine it wont be much different in saves
in screenshot toon is just lv 22 with crappy gear

i dont think going int base for more spp and monks for extra speed is worth it. as a sorc casting speed is very fast, isnt shiradi about procs from rainbow etc.. having more sps from char base and higher saves/ac is better . but thats just my noob opinion,,

I want the fvs levels to get scourge and just reward. And there is the 4 to 8 extra crit chance.

Getting ready to tr out of this (14/4/2) build. My saves are godly, but If I had to do it again I would go with 9 sorc 7 wiz 4 fvs.

Just a random question but do you think the arcane alacrity epic past life feat will work with the eldritch blast?

From what I've read, I think the cooldown will be more like cleave's.

But hey, Turbine.
