Blizz sorc question

Hi guys, I was wondering for a blizz sorc which skills to max, I know blizz/ice bolt/glacial spike/cold mastery, but is it better to leave energy at base and go for orb to clear trash with, or leave vita at low or base and go for ES? Or any other alternative ways I could go? Thanks.

I would never leave vita at base, even when using ES, but I play HC so.. Blizzard is a good trash killing skill, you can spam it along with glacial spike on trash and kill pretty fast, I suggest you get ES but remember to put 1 point in it and max TK.

ok thanks. Are cold sorcs any good vs bosses, I thought blizz might be decent against bosses. Which would be better overall to go for, blizzard, or orb. or are they both decent?

Both decent but I find blizz to be better allround. Orb causes way too much counters to be used against bosses.

ES is a waste of points unless you're investing into energy. Personally I maxed ice bolt synergies on my old blizzer. Don't expect anything great from blizzard versus bosses(or any cold skills for that matter). A fun build but lacks the boss killing power of fire builds or the AOE of lightning.

Orb sorces kick ass and are easy.

having 20 counters coming at you (and your team) is really bad. If any orb sorc started using orb against a heavy countering boss I would not be teaming with them again...
Fcr dont help f orb and most sorcs have enough fcr to tele fast enough anyway

The FCR was to help tele...

If your team has half a brain and the sorc is good, Orb is completely team viable.

if your team is decent then they wont need the mediorce damage of orb against bosses for 1 and they wont want all those counters coming at them while they deal with the boss with meteor/blaze/cb/phys damage.
