Please note that our Sorcerer leveling guides are now on separate pages, so if you are looking for them, you can access them using the buttons below. Good luck on the grind and may the drops forever be good to you.Leveling as a Sorcerer with Arc Lash, Chain Lightning, Ice Shards, or Fireball High density, no immunities, and quick clear. For armor Eth Fortitude is best (remember Eth offers more defense and mercenaries don’t lower durability) and Andy’s Helm. Equip him with an Infinity which is going to deal a ton of damage.

You’ll want to get an Act 2 defensive mercenary from Nightmare mode which will freeze enemies when he gets near them. Rings – 1 Raven Frost for the can’t be frozen mod and 1 Soj or Nagel ring.Boots – War travelers or Sandstorm Trek.

Belt – Arachnic Mesh or Goldwrap as the cheaper option.

The mana regeneration is also a huge help. The +1 to fire skills and 20% FCR is nice.

Shield – Spirit Monarch or Lidless Wall if you need a cheaper option.

Armor – Archon Plate Chains of Honor or Skullders/Viper Magi if you need something cheap.

The +2 Skills and resistances is a huge help.

Helmet – Shako with a Perfect Topaz in it for extra magic find.

It might seem strange that you don’t put any points in energy seeing as you use mana, but between your Mercenary and your gear, you’ll have plenty of mana regeneration.

Vitality – The remainder of your points.

You’ll likely want to reroll as you start to get geared up as you’ll later be able to move a lot of your strength points into vitality. You’ll want enough strength for your build, which will change from person to person depending on their charms, starting gear, etc.
