Build Guide

2.6.1 T13 Wizard Sage FrozenOrb DB Speedfarm

Intro

D2 Sorc Frozen Orb (Meteorb) build was one of my favorite D2 speedfarmin builds, and following the recent changes in the PTR:

Arcane Orb - Frozen Orb

Create an orb of frozen death that shreds an area with ice bolts, dealing 950% weapon damage as Cold

Triumvirate

Your Signature Spells increase the damage of Arcane Orb by 300-400% for 6 seconds, stacking up to 3 times.

Unstable Scepter

The damage of Arcane Orb’s is increased by 350-450% and its explosion triggers an additional time.

Seems like we finally got our beloved ForzenOrb Sorc back

This is a high mobility/high damage build for speedfarming T13 DB/Bounties.

Skills

Arcane Orb - Frozen Orb, Main damage dealer, activates Tal's cold stack.

Electocute Surge of Power, Grants Triumvirate stack, supplies some resource, activates Tal's Lightning stack
Blizzard - Frozen Solid, applies Zei's Stone of Vengeance at range, use to keep elites frozen to easily hit them with Frozen Orb.
Magic Missile - Also Grants Triumvirate stack, however only used to activate Tal's fire stack.
Teleport - Calamity, Mobility & activates Tal's arcane stack.
Familiar - Arcanot , Resource regeneration (can be replaced with Magic Weapon - Conduit)

Passives
Illusionist - MS

Astral Presence

Power Hungry - Damage@range
Unstable Anamoly - Cheat Death

Other recommended passives:

Glass Cannon, Cold Blooded , Prodigy (more resource)

Items & Stats

This build does not rely on CDR at all, the only thing important is enough RCR to have resource for Teleport, Frozen orb & Blizzard casts.
Aim for around 40% RCR & 4 ApoC on off-hand.

Tal's Set - Damage & Mitigation

Sage's Set - More DB per run

Pauldron of Skeleton King - 25% to proc Cheat Death. There aren't many good shoulders for this build, you may use whatever.

Nemesis Bracers - Best bracers for speedfarming

F&R - Damage

Aether Walker - CC, Mobility & Tal's arcane stack activator through Calamity.

Triumvirate - Orb Damage

Cube:

Unstable Scepter - Orb Damage

GoldWrap - Godlike toughness in combination with BoTH

RoRG - Required to equip both Tal's set and Sage's

Gems

Head - Topaz (RCR)
Chest&Pants - Topaz
Weapon - Emerald
