IMO you should always put points into prereqs for both your main attack and your secondary attack before pumping any synergies.What you do is max Fireball/Firebolt by lvl 60 or so, and all the while add points to your secondary skill. Something like Orb, while soaking up lots of prereqs, is effective without maxing its one synergy (Ice Bolt), and major investment in Cold Mastery. Blizzard is also good, and doesn't have nearly as many prereqs. CL isn't as effective as the other two without heavy synergy investment, but it or CB is still usable in Hell. The point being, you'll have more than enough points to invest in a second skill.
