Tier 100 is a breeze with this build, thank you so much!

For those that wanted independent verification of the strength of this build, I switched from ball lightning to this exact build within the last 48 hours. Followed all recommendations exactly including where to put aspects and using blue rose not x-fal, exact same paragon boards I waited to switch until all glyphs were level 21. Beat Lilith with build on third attempt, it took me 50 attempts with ball lightning for comparison. Even with the obvious learning curve knowing what to expect, no question she was easier to beat just took a little longer, but you don't feel like you are going to get one shot any second. This character does not die, very smooth, no mana issues it is CHILL. Easy kills on all other uber bosses. easy walkthrough on NM 100. I had good rolled gear at the start and had saved ice spike/frozen aspects from farming with ball lightning, so from min/max estimate my character is at 90% full power, I can still get higher rolls on god slayer helm, eso boots etc. (or find a shako!) I LOVE THIS BUILD best one yet for me in D4, thanks again to Ultrarunna!!

Thanks again Ultra! I recall having 25-30 extra paragon points left over from the board shown in the video, everyone can choose where to put the extra points. For me, I went back to the starter board to add the extra life, and I also chose some elite damage nodes thinking this build was "way behind" ball lightning, but doesn't feel that way now. With leftover points, I searched to max out all skills within each glyph range to make them as powerful as possible, i spent a handful of points this way there are some nodes to pick up in some of the ranges to max glyph power (for example, filled another INT node in a glyph based on INT in the expanded range). My last few points addressed my own lightning resistance need with nothing rolled on my gear to account for it.

Ball Lightning is bugged, overpowered, but most importantly boring to play anyway. Blizzard Sorc or Conjuration Sorc or Meteor Sorc is much more fun in my opinion.

This build does not beat t100 butcher. Also flicker step is good here because your ult does insane damage with all the ice spike scaling

For more confirmation, THIS BUILD IS S+ TIER. I started with ball lightning and loved it, I had my heart set on a cold build though, blizzard being my favored skill.. It does not disappoint, I had most gear before switching, minus uniques, and just waited until level 80 for uniques. Took little time to get used to rotation, and little time to figure out how to stay alive, its tanky for a sorc build. Along with CC, its by far more satisfying for me personally. Good build guide, good work. Happy hunting 💪🏽

Appreciate the feedback and I’ll pin this and maybe more people will see your comment. This build is fantastic for 99.9% of Diablo 4 but I’ve seen its max potential around lvl 9 of AoZ. Only one sorceress build can push higher in AoZ and that’s BL which can go to around Tier 15-17

The way you explain all of your builds is great. Appreciate the hard work and your explanations!

Great build! I did not have all the gear that you have (level 59) so I placed 1 point in Frost Bolt to allow mana to build up until I got better gear. Now that I have found Esu boots and Tal Rasha ring I am pushing through bosses like crazy! You know you have a great build when you can beat the Butcher that is 12 levels higher than you! What a great feeling, Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to make yet another amazing sorcerer's build guide! Ive been looking to make a second set of gear to break up the monotony of the ball lightning sorc ive played for several weeks now, and this build looks to be perfect! Great for grinding out boss mats and farming glyph exp. Thanks again for all you do!

Like I said, I did tweak a couple things after that though. Currently running 95-100 tier nightmare dungeons depending on the affixes for the dungeon. Lighting ball is more powerful, for sure, but the playstyle of this blizzard sorcerer is more fun for me.

Another nice build from you keep it up!! If I had to same one thing I think these guides need it would be showing Best in slot affixes if you aren't using uniques. New people or people that just don't have a clue how to min/max will not have no where close to the same build if they are running 4 affixes that don't even pertain to the build. Most people I know just throw on an item but have no clue about the scaling and are first to say someones build guide suck and then they try to added stuff they like again not having a clue what they just did and screw it up even more. Please add Best in slot affixes for rare gear at least in the build guide link for d4builds. That's the only criticism I have other than that I like your voice, how you present, and the way you structure everything else into one. Keep up the good work. Thanks again for your builds and time.

I've been playing a Sorc since the game launched. Tried a frost sorc pre season, my first character and could barely push NM50's. Season 2 I started with an Infinimist Necro, pretty fun. Then I rolled ball lightening and was finally able to do NM100 and beat Lillith, the build is seriously busted and cheesy AF. It was so overpowered I leveled a Fireball sorc to 100, it was interesting but very hit or miss, even with XFals, shelved that character quickly then leveled another Charge Bolts sorc to 100. Great damage but not enough to melt mobs quickly enough and single damage mobs were a bit of a challenge. Then I found this build, revamped my 100 fireball sorc and this thing also melts and not as cheesy as balll lightening. Great for AOE damage, can take a few more hits, and can melt bosses quickly. This is exactly the sorc I wanted at game launch. I still think Ball Lightening has it beat for pure damage but this is a nice change. I'm running NM90's no problem to level up my frost glyphs.
