Frozen Orb and its prerequisites require an additional twenty five points. Meteorb builds have precious few superfluous skill points to spend: maximizing Meteor's power requires investing in Fire Bolt, Fireball, Meteor, and Fire Mastery-a total of eighty points, not counting other prerequisites. Since Fireball and Meteor have near-identical synergies, they can become very powerful on Meteorb sorceresses. To shore up their weakness of relying on time-delayed skills, Meteorb sorceresses can rely on Fireball as a backup. Still, with enough practice, the Meteorb sorceress can be one of the most powerful caster builds. Neither are very effective 'panic buttons,' and may not be useful in the hands of an inexperienced player.

Meteor has a delay before hitting, and Frozen Orb can miss enemies completely if not aimed properly. However, the Meteorb Sorceress often takes technique to utilize correctly.

Unlike some other Sorceress builds that focus on only one element, making them vulnerable in Hell mode due to increased monster immunities, the Meteorb Sorceress can often survive without help of teammates. The Meteorb Sorceress has the advantage of relying on two skill trees: Fire Spells and Cold Spells. Its name is a portmanteau on 'Meteor' and 'Orb.' The Meteorb Sorceress is a Sorceress build that focuses on the Meteor and Frozen Orb spells.
