Anakin and Digits Sorceress Guide
This is a guide for a lightening/fire sorceress in LOD

This question is most commonly asked, so I decided to answer it here.

Q: What level should I be when I do quest ..?

A: This is a very hard question to answer, but for the sorceress that you 
will build using this guide, here is what I think you should do. (I will 
only explain the bosses because then it will go into too much detail)

---------------------------------------------------
Act I  Normal
------------------------------------------------------
Andariel  I think that you should complete this quest at around level 15, 
maybe 20 if you really want to rip through the Act 2 enemies.
---------------------------------------------------
Act II  Normal
------------------------------------------------------
Duriel  This boss is known for being very laggy. Hes quite a challenge to 
kill. I suggest that you kill him at level 25.
---------------------------------------------------
Act III  Normal
------------------------------------------------------
Mephisto  With Mephisto it doesnt really matter when you kill him, just as 
long as you can. On your own! Since killing this boss has nothing to loose, 
if you're to weak for Act 4 just keep leveling in Act 3
------------------------------------------------------
Act IV  Normal
------------------------------------------------------
Diablo  I suggest you kill Diablo at level 30 or so. Hes quite the tough 
customer, hopefully he will drop a good item or two.
------------------------------------------------------
Act V  Normal
------------------------------------------------------
Baal  Baal is the only boss that truly matters when you kill him, because 
if you kill him to early then you will move on to nightmare. Actually for NM 
I will just explain about Baal. Once youve gotten to nightmare you should 
be able to figure out what to do. So I recommend doing runs through the 
Ancient Ways and Blood Foothills until you are ready for Baal. Remember, 
once you kill him there is no turning back! All in all, you should be level 
50.
---------------------------------------------------
Act V  Nightmare
------------------------------------------------------
Ancients  I suggest doing this at the lowest level possible, so you gain 
more levels. Others may have different opinions.
Baal  On my sorc I accidentally killed him at lvl 65, but I kept playing NM 
games until lvl 70.

---
It does not matter when you kill Baal on Hell
Note: Kill ancients at level 60 so you gain about 5 levels.

Stats:
Since this is kind of hard just to give the stat choices, ill explain what 
you should do. First, you're going to need to get strength until you have 45 
(once you hit that ignore str.) This was needed so, you can wear your 
Heavenly Garb, Magefists, and Treads (or whatever boots you choose.) Next 
off your gonna want mana, I recommend getting about 900 mana. Another thing, 
be sure that you have enough life to survive in Nightmare and hell. You 
should get about 150 vitality, I recommend socketing your armor and putting 
a Perfect Ruby in it (+30 life.) And if you choose to use a Tarn Helm 
instead of the rune word put a perfect ruby in that. Make sure youve got 
some good +life charms with you (and + mana!). If you get lucky you may find 
some +Fireskills charms these are very useful. Basically, by the time your 
done with your stats you should have about 900 mana and 700 life. This may 
take a while, but trust me in hell your going to thank me for having 700 
life!

Items:
2 Stone of Jordan
1 Nightsmoke Belt
1 Pair Magefists
1 Set of boots (must have fast walk 20% or higher)
1 Ort Sol Rune word Helmet
1 Leaf Sorceress Staff (Use a Gull Dagger to start off)
1 Many choices here, Heavenly Garb, Stealth (Rune word), Skin of the 
Vipermagi, Spirit Shroud (unique ghost armor)
1 + sorceress skills amulet (These are nice with resistances)
