if your looking at a guides for character builds. try to look into several diferent ones. you will get more information on the character you want to build.
um did you try cold mastery? that should pump your blizzard up ALOT!!! i dont remember the other ones.
how do i get max synergies on a cold sorc?
i already have a lvl 86 sorc but only 5k in blizzard dmg - i have seen some ppl with 15k damage
is there a guide for synergies that shows what to max out and what not to touch if making a character for duel
i followed one guide but it said nothing about synergies (which is the one i used to build this character)
Did u max out the synergies? Did you put a few points into cold mastery?(this doesnt show up as more damage tho but helps do more)....
15k blizz isnt possible with shitty gear like shako and occy........To do that much your going to need a Fathom, NightWing, Cold facets in them, Possibly a 4OS shield with 4 facets in it(id take spirit over this regardless of the extra damage) and your gonna want a nice few cold gcs and torch + anni
Personally I find those maxed out damage dealing builds not as good as ones that can take a bit of damage by pumping up mana and ES/Telekenesis

ice bolt 37
ice blast 21
frost nova 18
frozen armor 18
shiver 18

chill armor 18
not sure what my mastery is but it is up there - should be maxed
i have good gear
death fathom
tal rash ammy
nigma (working on getting ormus)
spirit
some cold charms
nightwing helm
soj
etc
if i need to start over in order to get 15k i will but just need to know how to dist my skills to use with this gear to get that 15k

In order to get the most damage out of your blizzard look at what it gains bonuses from. Those are the ones that need to be max. Ice bolt, Ice blast and Glacial Spike. Only 1 point needs to be added to cold mastery if your mercenary uses an Infinity polearm. Somewhere in these threads there is an explanation why more than 17 into cold mastery is a waste because cold immunity can only be dropped by 100% or something. I made a sorc with max mastery and another with 1 point in and it is absolutely true and tested. As long as your mercenary uses infinity and your cold mastery is 17+ then you are golden. Read what the description of what cold mastery is.
Cold mastery: Passive- Increases the damage of your cold attacks by piercing your enemies resistance to cold.
It can only be reduced so far before becoming ineffective.
As for the gear and such to attain maximum damage you'd need perfect cold skill damage on all your items with perfect cold facets in everything including a bugged (2 skill) Tal armor with a 5% cold skill facet as well as having 9 charms, a torch and an anni.
In my opinion you are due for a rebuild. I am unable to follow the link that you posted but the skills useage you stated above is not ideal.
1 into frozen armor, 1 into telekinesis, 1 into teleport, 1 into warmth and 1 into static are pretty much universal skills no matter what sorc build you are following. I have made many. I am just trying to share what I know with you.

The blind mind's eye replies with a sigh and a tear of contempt for those who see the world as it truly is.
don't forget the all important merc... a must have for casters.
Unless hes pvp
Whats the % damage on your NW and fathom? that can make a difference and wether or not your gear has some good facets
Id go for skins over a ormus personally...but tahts just me...if it gets you to another BP with FCR its totally worth it IMO plus the resist is nice and so it the socket....I mean even if 15k is max blizz damage I doubt the best blizz sorcs do that much cuz they lose some defence attaining it.....tho blizz sorcs r not my speciality....nvr used em much.......the only advice I can give u is max synergies and put some into cold mas until it gives little to no benefit per skill

You should have glacial spike, ice blast maxed instead.
