Today we are going to focus on the fire aspect of a sorceress, i will share with you the secrets to making your fire sorceress do approximately 20k damage.

Equipment for your Fire Sorceress

Helm- In my opinion, i strongly approve of wearing the Harlequin Crest(Unique item), or what most people like to call it, "The Shako". is gives a good amount of health and mana, also gives magic find and 2 to all skills. It is a good addition to nearly any character.

Armor/Chestpiece- Chains Of Honor (Runeword Dol + Um + Ber + Ist) Gives 65 to resistances and also it gives 2 to all skills, increasing damage output and making your meteor and fireball do massive damage.

Shield(1)- Monarch Spirit (Runeword Tal + Thul + Ort + Amn) is the best for your primary shield. Due to the fact that spirit will buff the skills given by call to arms. Granting you even more health. and longer duration to +1 all skills. You can also get a 4 socketed monarch and place 4 perfect fire facets in it for 20% more fire damage.

Shield(2)- Monarch Spirit (Runeword Tal + Thul + Ort + Amn) also a perfect secondary shield due to skill points and and resistances.

Weapon(1) - Eschuta's Temper (Unique Item) which adds 3 to all sorceress skill levels and 20% to fire skill damage, which will help you when it comes to dealing damage.

Weapon(2) - Flail Call To Arms(Runeword Amn + Ral + Mal + Ist + Ohm) is by far the best secondary weapon for a Sorceress. it allows any character to cast Battle Orders, Battle Command,  and Battle Cry. Those shouts grant +1 to skills and drastically increase your health and mana.

Belt- Arachnid Mesh(Unique item) gives +1 to skills, a good addition to a Fire sorc gear set, adds damage and also the belt has pretty good defense.

Rings(both) - Stone Of Jordan's(Unique Item) give +1 to all skills and increase your maximum mana, which is always good when your  rolling a caster such as a Fire sorceress. 

Amulet - Mara's Kaleidoscope(Unique Item) gives 1 to all skills and once again increases resistances and damage output of your sorceress.

Boots - War Travelers(Unique Item) gives strength, vitality and magic find. Perfect for a sorceress.

Gloves- Magefist(Unique Item) gives faster cast rate, which in turn gives you better damage per second, allowing you do deal more damage faster and gives one to fire skills!
