(Reason? You need more int damage than dex now.)
WALKTHROUGH
1. Create a character of course, go for +5 dex as first stats.
2. In every level up, build con first until your con reaches 96.
(Reason? Your int damage is already high coz you are a sorc)
3. Build up your INT until it reaches 170.
(Your INT growth is already high)
4. Build up your DEX as last.
When you reach 95, use chaos stones and base it on my build above.
Dont go solo yet coz you are still vulnerable to attacks even with 4.0 magic cell buff. Just defend first in cz until you hit 10k fame. Go solo so that you receive high fame rate. Once you hit 10k fame, its up to you still defend cz of go with a sapu party.
TIPS:
When you defend cz, always stand on the roof of middle house and take patrol to its nearby house. That way, you can gain range on the north, east and south. You dont need to take range on the west coz no akkan will go there due to there are many high fame players on that vicinity.
Together with a pt, dont be a front liner or a tanker. Just stick behind or in the middle and go with a cleric if possible. Never ever charge your skills when you are outnumbered to kill wrapped enemies(by net of course). Trust me, its not advisable.
Everytime your MP drops below 10000MP, use dark power together with mana pots.
Everytime your HP drops below 5000HP, use imediately healing pots and cooked meat or just leech in monster nearby(charging up 2.5 vamp kiss).
Recommended skill combo is:
Ice, Fire, Vamp Kiss and then Elec.
NOTE: Make sure that your foe has no EVADE
When you are unsure about your foe having EVADE.
Halt(make sure the foe has not RESISTed it), hit him/her with your dagger and when you see 32. Skill combo immediately based on the combo above.
Once you feel that your pt needs to retreat, run safely. You can run fast coz you have 165+ dex. Call safely, is one of the key of sapu pt for survival.
Never ever call on vit vault roof when you are unsure if your pt is ready. Tell them to ready up their magic cells(full charge) and mana pots(for no interference when casting).
As soon as you are called in vit vault roof or arrived there, use mana pot and cast 3.5 of ice(for slow) then 3.5 fire(for high damage) and then 3.5 elec(for disable/stun) then run.
Remember, its better to retreat and call safely than to gain more fame when you are outnumbered and most likely be killed.
FAQ
Why building up a sorc this way?
*This has a resemblance of the rune build in akkan. Refer to the PROS and CONS above.
Why do you prefer Vamp Kiss than Deathblaze?
*Deathblaze inflicts more damage but Vamp kiss is better. Why? Vamp kiss inflicts damage, leeches your foes life and you can leech MP when you charge 2.5 above and fast cooldowns. On the other hand, deathblaze inflicts massive damage, use up 6 skills slots and slow cooldowns.
Can I go for 104 con shield?
*96 is recommended coz you need the rest of the stat for INT and DEX.
Can I use con boots and gloves?
*You can but think of the consequence. You might be able to get more extra def but check out your low Magic Resistance. You know what I mean.
Please specify where you can inflict effective damage
*Effective damages can go to any classes even life offs as soon as the EVADE wores off. Also, you inflict massive damage to gunners, runes and shadows.
Why defend on cz and not just go hunt after I reach 95?
*You are very vulnerable to damage. Just fame up a little by defending vit. Akkans usually go for sapu so just defend and fame up.
When can I go solo hunt?
*10k fame + is already fine but 25k fame is recommended. Watch out for gunners and shadows.
Why did you create this thread for your build?
*I just want to share it coz I am proud of my build.
First aid? Whats the use?
*To help your mates when stunned by a life off or a templar.

That may be all and I hope I explain well...
