You think that's bad, switch to cold spells, it's even worse. Sorc is just the worst class in the entire game right now , and needs to be put back the way it was.

Sure, that's why i'm melting away bosses in t13 maps right now.

Just because you can't build, doesn't mean a class is trash.

Lol talking about t13 map bosses like it's a flex, in a patch that's widely considered "easy" for the majority of the OP builds.

I don't even want them to make sorc a one button build, I'm all for their stated plan of combos and engaging combat being part of the game, but this is not it.

I'm sure people can get it to work in the endgame, my complaints are more about leveling as sorc being insufferable. I typically play off meta but doing it on sorc is really an unfun grind.

Oh sorry brah, should I have being doing t13 bosses with a level 1 sorc? You understand how progression in this game works? Have I anywhere stated, that I'm above lvl 80?

Take a chill pill and think before you comment.

tf are you talking about? why are you talking about progression? you tried to use your t13 experience to tell someone else they're bad at building because they said "Sorc is just the worst class in the entire game right now , and needs to be put back the way it was." I tried to imply that your "evidence" is shit [Removed by Support]

I think you snapped at him too soon. His point is sorc is not unplayable which is what people seem to be implying. I agree with this. I am using sorc and doing even better than previous leagues. Bosses have never melted this fast before. Already beaten most max level pinnacle bosses. The new support gems really help map clear speed as well. Arc is about what spark was originally.

I've managed to play an HC SSF (btw) crit arc sorcerer to act 4 (Yama killed it due to me being lazy) with it being sufficiently strong - the trick is not to play it as your first character in any league, as it will not have the necessary + level items in all slots to do enough damage.

During the league you just need to to hoard those staffs, wands, amulets and focus in order to play the build eventually during the season.

The same applies somewhat to minions as well imo, you need the + levels in maces, amulet and helmet and unfolding dawn to steamroll.


This is very different for item damage related classes, where it's sufficient you get a +100% physical damage item every 20 levels or so.

E.g. found a xbow which has 200 dps on level 6. It pretty much one shots everything all the way to Jamanra.


And yes, agree on the infusions, they are bs, mainly because they force you to take extra steps and wait for orbs to timeout etc.

There have been a few thread on the + levels on items, and I tend to agree they should remove them (and balance the damage accordingly), as they are must to have now.

Not all build good builds are good builds for leveling. Find a leveling build to level than switch to a endgame build. Some skills/set ups just struggle until you get the gear and passive points and maybe even ascendancy done.

There isn't really a good reason why this is the case - all skills could be ~equally good early game.
