Hydra Sorceress

The Fire Hydra Sorceress is a unique summoner-style build that deploys stationary fire-breathing serpents to attack enemies automatically. Unlike traditional sorceress builds that require active targeting, Hydras provide autonomous damage while you focus on positioning and survival. This build offers a more relaxed playstyle where you set up your "turrets" and let them handle the combat, making it excellent for farming and safe gameplay. First assign 1 point to the following skills: Warmth, Meteor, Inferno, Blaze, Fire Wall, Teleport, Frozen Armor, Static Field, Frozen Orb, Ice Bolt and Cold Mastery. Max out the following skills also: Fire Hydra, Fire Ball, Fire Bolt and Fire Mastery.

Next for your Attributes, add enough Strength to wear your gear. Then add no points to Dexterity. Energy, if you prefer you can add 30-40 points or 0, your gear will be able to sustain your mana needs. Put the rest into Vitality.

For your Weapon, you can chose to go for an Eschuta's Temper or a Heart of The Oak. For your Shield, go for a Spirit with 35% Faster Cast Rate. Next for your Armor, get yourself a Chains of Honor or an Ormus' Robe. For your Helmet, select a Shako or a Rare Circlet with 2 to skills and 20% Faster Cast Rate. Glove wise, a Magefist or a Trang Oul's Claws. Your Belt should be either Arachnid Mesh or Tal Rasha's Fine-Spun Cloth. Boots, go for a WaterWalk for survivability or a War Traveler for more Magic Find. Rings, you got for Stone of Jordan or Rare Rings with Faster Cast Rate with bonuses. Amulet, go for a Mara's Kaleidoscope or a Crafted Amulet with 2 to skills and 20% Faster Cast Rate.

Your inventory would need a HellFire Torch and an Annihilus preferably with high stats. Next get yourself a few Fire Skill Charms with either Faster Hit Recovery or Life. Small Charms with Resistances and Life or Magic Find.

For your Mercenary, get an Act 2 Merc with Holy Freeze for crowd control, Helmet should be a Vampire Gaze or Andariel's Visage. Infinity in a Thresher base as well as an Ethereal Archon Plate Fortitude.
