Don't take me wrong. My favorite sorceress is my fire/cold sorc. It's just that she has 211% MF on switch, and my cold sorc has 485%. If it is your first sorc, (DEF: sorceress is 85+ levels, 800+ life/mana, able to perform well in hell), then I would definitelly suggest a fire/orber.
Whereas a 20-1 orb seems weak, you NEED 20-20-20 in fireball to make it work. So: go meteor-fireball-fire mastery-orb, with 1 point in cold mastery.
Yes, I did try going fire bolt instead of Meteor. Do not do that. Meteor is a great skill to have, and you only 'loose' 2 points to get there (and you have 1 more in your fireball synergy, since bolt is a prereq to fireball). After you reach the 20-20-20, I'd go cold mastery.
Btw, Teleport and Static deserve their 1 point in nearly every build; I think it is needless to mention that. With all that, the build is 94 points, meaning you're done by level 82. That is relatively high, so the order of maxing the skills is not irrelevant: make sure to have a 20 orb by the time you reach hell.
