Building new characters skill tree

I know most here will already know this but just incase I just wanted to put this here. i was explaining this to a friend recently. When building your skill tree the synergy bonuses are super important for maintaining you resource consumption, for instance when building a fire sorc i level

Fireball 1 until firebolt is 20,

Static Field’s range to 13ish or so. I alternate points into mastery and fire ball keeping my

Fireball under 10 mana. This will keep ypu from having to pump energy to respec later. Once i finish all that is when i finally go for

Meteor cause i personally believe staic field is way better. As for a zealer i put just enough points into

Zeal until i hit 3 times or so. Then i level

Sacrifice to 20. The synergy from

Sacrifice is more damage then a level of

Zeal. And this also helps because you may not always have a super fast weapon during the course of your playthroughs. I personally level

Zeal for attack rating as i run through the game. I see a-lot of online and YouTube guides tell you to level your main skill to 20 immediately which is fine if your power leveling. BUT if you running through the game relying on your own strength you will run into resource and other vital stat deficiencies. I hope this helps someone who reads this and best of luck to all

it will depends on your build, some build have mana amulet, mana fcr ring. cta

That you may need to use Token to test best setup several times.

The most important is watch your damage, if you keep farm same scenario, you may not need that high damage. Sometimes , lv 41 blizzard/

Fireball or whatever compare to lv 31 will have exactly same performance.
1p

Key / countress farming... or nightmare rare/soj farming.
In such case, use token to make things more smooth .
