    NEW INFORMATION
    Update 51 FIXED the spell damage resistance bypass enhancements and so they now work and are basically MANDATORY for all sorcerer. Make sure you take those. Breaking news after very recent testing.

      the one in draconic? wouldnt that be useless since elemental form strips all of it?

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@flute136 No. The elemental form only works for % reductions, not flat reductions. If a monster is immune, or has a % reduction (like a champion) it will bypass, but a flat reduction (like a slaad or dretch or firebrand gnoll) is not bypass by the capstone, even though it says it should. This enhancement actually works as of U51, when before U51 it didn't work.

      @@Strimtom im slightly confused. Are you sure % based reductions can be bypassed? In The Archons Trials, the end boss seems to have crazy amounts of % resist in higher skulls that neither sorc or alch can bypass. Also it may not supposed to bypass resistances but i swear it did. I will have to test this later sometime.

    Great vid. I hope you will do one like this for Artificer. I had play this back in the day when it was only pay per month and then came back after a while and got warforge and Artificer. I am think of going back to the game as a Artificer.

    Sorcs are not glass cannon, they are way tougher than Alchemists and a few other builds. I did my Warforged lives as Artificer, and my Bladeforged as Paladins. All my Sorcs have been fleshy, which makes Int somewhat important but I have +8 tomes. Generally I want Spellcraft, Heal, Use Magic Item, Balance and I also put points into Performance and of course Concentration. So, for me it's it's Charisma max, Con max, and the rest Int.

    Could you try make a elven medium or heavy armour ek maybe a wiz barb/ftr or a sorc bard ftr for some stalwart

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Medium is generally better than heavy and in this video I recommend using medium on sorcerer since you can get it from the eldritch knight tree.

    Any way to go with melee sorcerer as drow race and maybe mix with a wizard class for a skeleton tanking pet? Does that even make sense?:(

    • @JahanMisra
      @JahanMisra 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      you could do but you’d just be nerfing yourself. if you want eldritch knight and a skeleton i would just go with wizard and no sorcerer

    • @AnarchyJesus

      it does not make sense with wiz. if u want mix go 2 lvl monk and maybe a bit fighter or pally.

    It wasn't on the list after I hit level 2.

    What path should be chosen at the start?

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  ปีที่แล้ว

      Don't choose a path! The paths are very old, outdated, and make bad bad decisions. I made this video so you would be able to make your own custom sorcerer.
      Additionally, I also link to builds if you want to follow them instead in the description of this video:

      Do you play 3.5? That sounds about right for 3.5e which this was origionally released based off of. You can do some silly stuff in 3.5. There's builds that could throw a a house no problem, or have effectively infinite hit points (assuming they can't be killed from full in 1 turn)

  • @djtazzyjeff
    @djtazzyjeff 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    armored arcana is kind of useless, being that the lvl12 core in EK gives enough spell fail reduction to wear heavy, also sorcs (and fvs) get 5% more sp per lvl from wizardry items. not double. it's "up to double" ie. 100% at lvl20

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Armored arcana gives proficiency, which is necessary to benefit from the PRR of heavier armor.
