Diablo 4 Beta best Sorceress/Sorcerer class build and skills.

In Diablo 4 Sorceress/Sorcerer is a long range tactically versatile battle class. Its build combines Frost and Fire spells, with Frost Bolt as the primary skill to chill and freeze enemies. Once crowd controlled, high damage and mana-efficient pyromancies such as Fireball and Meteor are used to incinerate them.

The build also includes iconic teleport skills that provide the Sorceress/Sorcerer with some of the best mobility in Diablo 4. This allows for lots of Area of Effect damage while maintaining high single target damage output. There are three top Sorceress builds to choose from, including Frozen Orb Hydra Sorceress, Lightning Sorceress, and Crackling Energy Sorceress. While the build is a glass cannon that focuses on killing enemies and teleporting away before they get close, there are a few defensive skill upgrades to help in challenging fights. Check out this guide on which skills to use and where to invest points in the Sorcerer skill tree.
