welll im planning to make a sorc(melee) using shiver armor as main skill.

Skills(33points)

19 shiver armor
10 frozen armor
1 cold mastery
1warmth
2 pre
(energy shield on weapon switch with plus skills)
(shiver damage=186-215)
~or~
19 shiver armor
4 energy shield
1 cold mastery
1warmth
8 pre
(shiver damage=106-123 with plus skills


Equiment

armor: The Spirit Shroud(Prubie)
shield: Visceratuant(Ith rune)
helm: Peasant Crown(Prubie)
weapon: +2 cold skills maybe(or just +2 shiver armor)(i dont know lvl req.)
belt: nightsmoke
gloves: bloodfists or frosties
boots:????
rings: sojs
ammy: +2 cold ammy with life

STATS
str: equ
dex: max block/none(not sure if shiver armor works when blocking)
vit: rest
eng:none

CHARMS
all +15life charms

just let them hit you and try to live through it(i think would be good against fast lower dmg player)

thanks for all your input

Hmm...

Potential Problem #1: You won't be able to do anything vs. ranged characters.

Potential Problem #2: ~200 cold dmg isn't going to do hardly anything at all after 1/6 pvp penalty + resists.

Potential Problem #3: If you plan on using a weapon, you won't do much dmg nor will you hit much with that equip and those charms.

On the plus side, your defense should be fairly high and you could probably kill some newbs in public games. But besides that, I don't really see the point of making a character like this.

PvP penalty for elemental damages is 1/4th, not 1/6th. Physical and Magic damages are 1/6th, though.

Details, details...

Still, 50 cold dmg minus resists isn't going to do a whole lot of damage.

Yeah, in the case of the cold armors it's not a huge difference, but I almost wish it was 1/6th for some of those other synergized skills like blizzard at high levels.

i was thinking with a kicker or zealot that the would quick small dmg would only hit 25% of the time(max block) maybe less with higher defense. They would take about 50 (about -50 cold resist on it so maybe more) or so dmg. and if a kicker has about 700 life and and one set of kicks(4 kicks) does about 50-100(not too sure what there dmg is) dmg(pvp penalty and max block and energy shield) but ill be doing about 200-300 dmg on them.
so i feel if i can about 800 life
~300 charms(very reasonable)
~400 stats
~78(2 prubies)
~40 (Peasant Crown)

i think i might be able to tank them
Im not sure what other chars dmg is but energy shield absorbs 40%(lv5 and not sure if theres a pvp penalty to it) so that might be enough to tank them and watch them die

and this will be melee only

I had similiar sorc in 1.09, with blizzard or firewall and melee attack though. To be really effective, you need high defense armor, helm and shield. Mine had about 5000 defense and could win most melee LLD characters in 1.09, especially jabzon and zealot.
