↖ The Build Overview

This Sorcerer build presented here strikes a balance between devastating area-of-effect (AoE) damage and exceptional staying power. While it might seem like single-target damage is falling short initially, but your ability to survive against hordes of enemies more than makes up for it, ensuring no boss can bring you down. Although it may be slightly slower killing individual enemies in comparison to other builds, its lightning speed and fun factor make it one of the best builds for leveling up in Diablo 4.

↖ Essential Skills and Enchants

Begin with Arc Lash because of its mobility benefits alongside resource generation before moving on to Chain Lightning or Fireball depending on your preference. For AoE clear, Fireball enchantment is amazing and should become your primary choice by level 15. As time goes on, get Teleportation skill, Icy Armor skill and Inferno skill since they are good at defense/offense respectively.

 

At first focus only on Fireball's explosive chain reaction upon death of an enemy while enchanting them. Later on think about introducing Firewall enchantment which would serve as another layer for increasing AoE potential. Look out also for legendary items such as Disobedience which is used mainly for defense purposes or Tasha's (which brings about significant boost in firepower).

 

↖ Skill Point Allocation

Allocate your skill points properly to maximize your chosen abilities' effectiveness. Make sure Prodigy Aspect is available early for addressing mana issues by efficient cooldown rotation. For healing and dealing damage respectively, don't forget about Warmth and Inner Flames in addition to Inferno which is also good for crowd pulling.

 

Towards higher levels, focus on skills that synergize with Prodigy Aspect and have cooldown reductions. In this way you will ensure steady mana supply to allow you always stay up as much as possible using your defensive abilities.

 

↖ Legendary Items Worth Chasing

While leveling, prioritize legendaries that enhance survivability and damage output. Disobedience is a must-have for its reliable self-defense. Conceded the damager is worth going for due to its low conditionality and sustained damage increase.

 

↖ Pet Strategy

At first, the pet system in Diablo 4 might seem overwhelming but spending time finding the right combination of skills as well as guardian stones is essential. Initially pets may look unimpressive but having their abilities working together when they level up makes them irreplaceable friends.

Look out for governing stones that offer utility like Flash of Adrenaline or Fortify Support, which can bolster your damage or defenses in the heat of battle.
