Preliminary Enchantress Guide

[WarBlade]

The 1.10 patch dramatically changed the relative strengths of many Diablo II skills, and no skill had its power increased more than the sorceress skill, Enchant.

I got as far as the first sentence and already started hating it. The quoted sentence while immediately throwing a challege out in the open (with a boast) looks like it heralds something that only a *ahem* "UB3R l337 D00D LOLOL!!!111" (If you'll pardon my AOLish) could appreciate.

. . . Then followed by the Encyclopedia Britannica entry on the LOD Enchantress, which would seem to only really appeal to the extreme opposite person on the scale of mental agility.

Umm ok. :unsure:

And what's with all the entries on non-Enchant attack types? Once a Sorceress devotes half her power to Frozen Orb or Inferno or whatever other attack she's lost her claim to the name of Enchantress IMO, simply because half the time she won't even be using Enchant! :blink:

Another thing most guides fall into the trap of doing is the shopping list . . .

consider purchasing an Artisan's Tower Shield of Deflecting at the Act I hell shop and socketing it with 3 perfect diamonds.

Wonderful. :( Reading a 'guide' that gives little clue as to what mods are useful and why, prefering instead to list specific names to hunt for. <_<

Well that about sums up my list of criticisms. I'd probably have more except the guide being a reference text encouraged me to skip much and skim a little. ;)
