D2 Sorceress BREAKING D2R COLD SORC NEWS

[KremBanan]

Cold Mastery now breaks cold immunity in D2R! Given you have it over(under?) -135 enemy coldres, you will break normal cold immunes. So, Shenk and some other bosses wont get broken.
This means, imo, that the coldsorc is now the most powerful char in D2R, outclasses the Hammerdin imo.

How Conviction, from Infinity, will work on top of that I dont know.


Im making a Coldsorc now. Thinking the classic Orb/Static would be really fun now

From a couple of streamers and youtube videos, yes I think cold mastery was changed somehow. Not sure if a new bug or and old bug that was 'fixed'. But not all cold immunes can be broken, so dual element sorcs are probably still the way to go.

From what I understand, is that this is how it was supposed to be.

Dual will be good ofc, but with a strong Mightmerc, eObediance or eInsight, he can handle the few that can't be broken...I hope

Thanks for sharing! I remember what a pain that used to be in Hell diff on my FO Sorc. X_x

No, it is a bug. It was also a bug in D2 for a while but was fixed in patch 1.08
