As a fan of role-playing games, I’m sure you’re familiar with Diablo 4, the fourth installment in the popular Diablo series. Sorcerer is one of the most popular classes in Diablo 4, capable of immense power. And if you’re anything like me, you know that the Sorcerer class will be rewarding and fun to play.
Today, Mmosale brings some helpful tips and strategies for mastering the Sorcerer in Diablo 4. Let’s dive in!
Diablo 4 – Best Sorcerer Builds Guide
The Sorcerer can branch into three kinds of elemental magic — ice, fire, and lightning. Among them, the more popular genres are Fire Sorcerer and Ice Sorcerer.
Under normal circumstances, it is advisable to choose the Fire Sorcerer when the equipment’s early-stage performance is insufficient. The formation of the Fire Sorcerer is relatively simple, offers ample damage, and has excellent combat effectiveness.
As the player grows stronger in the later stages, they can explore a more potent playstyle by opting for the Ice Sorcerer. The combat power of the Ice Sorcerer is terrifying, and the super-high burst can kill the enemy directly and instantly. However, utilizing the Ice Sorcerer effectively requires adept handling and a precise allocation of skill points.
Therefore, considering the current stage of the game, where equipment still needs to be improved and players may not be entirely proficient in their operations, I recommend everyone to play as the Fire Sorcerer.
Fire Sorcerer Skill Point Allocation
1 Fire Bolt (add 1 point), has one primary “enhancement” and inflicts a burning effect on the enemy, leading to continuous damage over time.
Primary Enhancement
Enhanced Fire Bolt: Fire Bolt pierces through Burning enemies.
2 Fireball (add 5 points): this is the most critical AOE skill in the early stage.
Branch Skill Options:
Enhanced Fireball: increase the attack range.
Destructive Fireball: increases critical strike damage.
3 Opt for Flame Shield (add 2 points) as your defensive skill choice to gain an immunity effect and burn nearby enemies.
Branch Skill Options:
Enhanced Flame Shield: Flame Shield grants 25% [+] Movement Speed while active.
Shimmering Flame Shield: Flame Shield heals you for 50% of your missing Life. This function is essential for Sorcerer. It improves survivability, especially when fighting against world bosses.
4 Select Hydra (add 5 points) as the summoning skill, summon a hydra, and attack the enemy with fire. This is a necessary summoning skill for a fire Sorcerer.
Branch Skill Options:
Enhanced Hydra and Invoked Hydra: increase the number of attacks and critical strikes of the summoned Hydra.
5 Inner Flames (add 1 point): when your health is above 80%, Inner Flames will add an extra point and boost the damage of your Fire Sorcerer skill.
6 Devouring Blaze (add 3 points): increases the critical damage of burned and immobilized enemies.
7 Inferno (add 1 point), the ultimate skill, unleashes a fire snake that engulfs and burns the enemy.
Branch Skill Options:
Prime Inferno: grants a pulling effect on enemies, positioning them strategically for more effective damage dealing.
Supreme Inferno: a powerful burst flame skill that does not consume mana during activation and enhances the Sorcerer’s ability to sustain continuous output.
Fire Sorcerer Enchanting and Output Techniques
Enchantment: Since the Fire Sorcerer’s skills revolve around Fireball and Hydra, the recommended enchantment choice is Fireball.
Skill Output Method: Begin by summoning Hydra, casting Fire Bolt to apply a burning effect on the target, and then unleashing Fireball. When facing multiple enemies, utilize Inferno, and control the enemy’s position for AOE attacks.
