This turns out not to be the case. Since Fire Mastery is applied twice to melee Enchant damage, you can easily do 4k or more fire damage, even without much in the +skills department. And, as ShadowHM said, the additional AR is vital.
I'm not sure ES is all that and a bag of chips, either. Its mana drain is applied before resists, and as a melee sorc, your mana pool will be rather small. I would live in fear of ES draining away the mana I need to Teleport at just the wrong moment.
The weapon of choice for the melee sorc seems to be a "Passion" Phase Blade. It gives you Zeal, a big chunk of AR, and is one-handed so you can block. "Delirium" hats are all the rage as well, if you can get the runes. Its CTC Confuse makes for much easier crowd control on a build that doesn't have many options in that regard.
Have you read MongoJerry's Enchantress Guide? It's quite excellent.
