over 60% ATK speed, 5.65 seconds for flame shield, and 42.5% CDR eh? Hmmm....seems thats basically the sweet spot for immortality. I havent played chain lightning since season 1. LOVELY build indeed :) Thanks for showcasing it! #Subbed
Good on you for playing non-meta stuff. I'm running charged bolts right now without immortal and I just passed pit 50. It's such bullshit that the Sorc Developer(s) leave Chain Lightning like this. It should at LEAST look and feel like Druid Lightning imo. GL bud keep it up.
The Boss dmg is impressive. The Stagger is incredible. I bet it melts through a Tier 70 Pit, which is the one I usually settle for material farming. I'm definitely going to try this. Got a pair of gloves with At. Speed and Chain Lightning Greater Affixes waiting. GGs thanks for the Guides.
i was surprised at how decent it was for Chain Lightning. wasn't expecting much, wasn't expecting a T100 tbh. still terrible in the grand scheme, but for what it is. its good
Thank you for your informative build information. It would be helpful for some of us (like me) that the rank of skills in your mobalytics guide show the order of stats as they are on the actual item rather than by what you consider to be a priority because it's easier to find items when gambling if I can looks for an amulet with attack speed, then cooldown reduction and THEN ranks to conjuration mastery just as they appear on the item.
I am confused, can you restate this. I usually just slap the 3 stats I think will be best, then MW and GA whatever I think are most important. Besides on immortal builds which are going away next season, the masterworks are flexible
@@Lurkin17 with a unique 1hweapon, which says, after casting 2 chain lightning, you can cast teleport again, after casting teleport, your chain lightning burns enemies for X int for 4 seconds, and chain lightning always cast twice. -Int -Attack speed -Crit dmg -7 ranks for chain lightning
Hope they give a nice unique for chain lightning next season. I mean without flameshield... R.I.P - 2 low dmg overall in sorc builds. And the flameshield nerf incoming next season.
I’d need to run raiment. And then flame shield gets really dicey with the loss of a temper. And I’d be super squishy. I’m not really into shatter. It’s great. But then I have to fish for bosses instead of just avoiding den mother and sharpshooter
This is sad cause I love this build. I'm playing the same build and I'm doing all this key smashing and struggling to even clear 100pit, where in my Barb I'm standing still and everything dies with my Thorn in 100-120s.
How would you build it, if you had to use a 2hand weapon? Which aspect on the weapon? Is temerity an option, or trash? I found a +int +life on hit greater affix 2hand weapon... Do the barriers stack?
Excuse my noob question but how do you obtain the aspect of shredding blades? I haven't found it on a single item yet and I'm currently level 85. The internet isn't giving me much to work with either :/
Didn’t need the mana regen. Can get more damage out of a legendary ring because of a 1.3x damage aspect, attack speed, int, tempers, and the unstable currents CDR roll
@@Lurkin17🎉 Mate, after the patch Starless will be x1.5 dmg, am I right? Maybe in this case its better? + We have the skill if we up than 50 mana our dmg increasing. Thnx!
Sorcerer is just terrible. This is what a B tier sorc build just looks like man. Every sees Mekunas shatter cheese build clear 140s and thinks sorc is good. Its not.
@@Lurkin17 I mean, in terms of CC you just put it on your stuff and get high lucky hit, you're still gonna have to face that hurdle since you decided to get to t100 with every skill
Yup it’s terrible. I just try to bring awareness to skills that need buffs. If blizzard sees just have much worse it is in a well built build in a 100 maybe they’ll buff it accordingly
Just like druid even with every multiplier in existence, still hit shitty damage. But barbs n nerco can go hit over 50mill to 5billion damage. It's like they never test anything. Fkn druid can get 400%X Crit damage and still only hit 3mill with shred....
looks fun but blizz doesnt know wtf theyre doing, or doesnt care. no reason sorcs should be so terrible or other classes (druids) for that matter. wish theyd put less efort into expansion cinematics and more effort into revamping this game in this horrible state thats it in rn
@@Lurkin17 yes, immoral is boring, but seems not much buff to push further, sorc is already vulnerable enough, I don’t see damage reduction added to balance the one shot all the time
S4 theme for sorcs: Immortal . 😅
truth. Im reusing the same amulet chest and pants for 9/10ths of my builds lol
That's Blizzard's fault for not giving much options on defense on Sorcerers
Without high uptime of flame shield(not immortal), sorc is still around 80 pit, even after the pit nerf
@@WintersGaook.

its pretty lax on the builds that can get 3 tempers its not too terrible. but requires ramping of the ice blades
luv it ! ⚡️ keep it going m8 ! different builds comin up for sorc finally !

yeah its tought. off meta gets no views. no ones gives a shit, rightfully so

This build is using ball lighting dmg too
no this one isn't using BL enchant or Grav. I have ranks to core gloves because they are the best I have. no adept glyph
i was surprised at how decent it was for Chain Lightning. wasn't expecting much, wasn't expecting a T100 tbh. still terrible in the grand scheme, but for what it is. its good
And here I'm struggling with Blizzard in T80 while giving up on Chain Lightning ages ago o_O. I don't really get where the damage is coming from tbh 🤔
yes, the stagger has impressive speed but killing bosses is still very slow compared to others.

Thanks a lot man, finally found a build like my playstyle, that dont feel weird.
Great! Keep it up.
This build is awesome i never played sorc but now I enjoy it :D thank you!
Glad you enjoy it! It was hard to get it to perform well
I love chain lighting my favorite skill hands down one day it will slap
one day it will get an omnipower unique
@@Lurkin17 with a unique 1hweapon, which says, after casting 2 chain lightning, you can cast teleport again, after casting teleport, your chain lightning burns enemies for X int for 4 seconds, and chain lightning always cast twice.
-Int
-Attack speed
-Crit dmg
-7 ranks for chain lightning
🎉 Mate, new patch info -
Aspect of Unbroken Tether
Additional Chain Lightning chains increased from 4 to 5.
One step to right direction, finally.
Where is the 40% DR from Elites and DR from close coming from? Thanks!
40% DR from the skill tree, the one that stacks up at 3% per second in the conjuration area. Close DR I am not sure, but 20% all dr is from shako
Problem with being a sorc is it's very flashy but not enough damage to speed farm atm but this build seems fun maybe I can do something with it
Hope they give a nice unique for chain lightning next season. I mean without flameshield... R.I.P - 2 low dmg overall in sorc builds. And the flameshield nerf incoming next season.
i want fixes to CL, not another unique that eats a damage aspect slot
Is the build better or worse with starless? I dont know if i whould use it
probably worse with starless. you want attack speed and that UC current CDR temper
What enchantments? Guide says take ball lightning but you don’t use it?
I made an adjustment after the PTR after playing more chain lightning. Ball lightning enchant has a bug it seems and doesn’t scale very well
@@Lurkin17 appreciate it! Also it’s my first sorc how are you getting the fire damage? Flame shield for the flame feeder glyph?
Im rocking ball lightning but im guessing some of this applies. Thank you!!
yeah Ball Lightning is way better than this
Have you tried esadoras cameo? I feel like with 1700 int that has to smack
I did. It’s just a big damage loss to CL because you lose a 1.45x damage aspect and potentially 7 ranks of Conj mastery
What were your enhancements? Fire bolt and chain lightning or ice blades?
Ice Blades and Lightning spear as stated in the planner
How to sustain Mana? I always have no mana to cast CL.
Picking up crackling
Did you try shatter instead of vyr? Could speed up the mob part by a lot and some bosses with adds
I’d need to run raiment. And then flame shield gets really dicey with the loss of a temper. And I’d be super squishy. I’m not really into shatter. It’s great. But then I have to fish for bosses instead of just avoiding den mother and sharpshooter
@@Lurkin17 you can still manually pull them a bit together and get great value out of shatter, no really need raiment to do this
@@Ganking553to supose shatter worth with ice from ice blade?
Was wondering what exactly qualifies for Close or Distant for the sake of those modifiers?
Basically close is melee range. Basically think of anything Ball Lightning with grav can touch without adept
how is against uberr boss ?
probably not very good, ngl
This is sad cause I love this build. I'm playing the same build and I'm doing all this key smashing and struggling to even clear 100pit, where in my Barb I'm standing still and everything dies with my Thorn in 100-120s.
yerp. the class is really bad right now, not much i can do but sprinkle glitter on iit
@@Lurkin17 I wouldn’t go as far, saying that Sorc are struggling but this build yes it’s struggling. Fire Bolt sorc is giga stronk atm.
How would you build it, if you had to use a 2hand weapon? Which aspect on the weapon? Is temerity an option, or trash? I found a +int +life on hit greater affix 2hand weapon... Do the barriers stack?
Temerity is pretty mid IMO. 2H? I’d prolly slot shredding blades on it
Also. To what speed did you speed up the video?
0 speed. I never edit anything I don’t have that level of editing skill 😂
I have been playing this on and off but my bash barb hits so hard melting bosses. this take 10 times longer to kill. i want it to work. i love sorc.
Your telling me man
why did you kill lightning ball when you dont even use it ? and how are du regenerating mana so fast
I use it to make crackling during unstable currents. mana is from mana per second on chest and ranks to conj mastery scaling my mana regen
Excuse my noob question but how do you obtain the aspect of shredding blades? I haven't found it on a single item yet and I'm currently level 85.
The internet isn't giving me much to work with either :/
it just drops in the wild, no other way
@@Lurkin17 Thanks for responding :)
In s4 sorcs best stat is a lot of CD reduction. It is such a pain to hit all those tresholds for the perma shield.
its really a pain in the ass but theres no other way to actually do hard content *Reliably*
the number build LOL I wish I could turn off the damage numbers
you can in gameplay settings! I keep them on when filming so people have an idea of what damage I am doing. it helps people know if they are on track
@@Lurkin17 oh damn youre the man thanks 🤣
and bro ? how would u rate the spear of lycander this season ?
Mid at best. If you want to run it, run it on arc lash because there are zero arc lash tempers
Nice immortal chain lightning
I took a turd and sprinkled glitter on it
15k views but only 160 likes? Man, that's brutal.
I ain’t pressed. It’s an off meta build
Wow! Dude!
Nice!!
Thanks!
🎉Mate, CL is one love for me. Third season play only CL and try hard.
Why not use Starless, could u expln pls?
Didn’t need the mana regen. Can get more damage out of a legendary ring because of a 1.3x damage aspect, attack speed, int, tempers, and the unstable currents CDR roll
@@Lurkin17 Got it, mate, thnx!
Cause now i have 4 sparks and planing to craft Starless. But now Shako enjoy the chat)
@@Lurkin17🎉 Mate, after the patch Starless will be x1.5 dmg, am I right?
Maybe in this case its better?
+ We have the skill if we up than 50 mana our dmg increasing.
Thnx!
@@Lurkin17what do u think about Starless, mate, after the patch?
sorc supposed to be this slow? my barb can one hit 100+mil
Sorcerer is just terrible. This is what a B tier sorc build just looks like man. Every sees Mekunas shatter cheese build clear 140s and thinks sorc is good. Its not.
Love playing a chain/crackle build, but it takes a week and a half to beat anything
only on business days too.
4-6 week shipping
Crackling energy needs a rework / more stuff to make it useful, like auto pickup would be cool with the lighting spear enchantment
I challenge you to do t100 flamewall with no gimmicks
Bruh firewall firebolt without immortal is so clunky. And pure burning has next to zilch crowd control
@@Lurkin17 I mean, in terms of CC you just put it on your stuff and get high lucky hit, you're still gonna have to face that hurdle since you decided to get to t100 with every skill
Cant wait for the mext imortal build❤
I tried ice shards but had uptime issues and it plays awkwardly from close
Does less damage than a 110 socket.
Cool tho, looks fun.
Yup it’s terrible. I just try to bring awareness to skills that need buffs. If blizzard sees just have much worse it is in a well built build in a 100 maybe they’ll buff it accordingly
So low dmg on boss for t100 when i see barbare, necro dmg... Im sick
It’s disgustingly bad. I need to showcase just how bad it is while still challenging myself as T100 baseline
DANG!!!!!!!!!!!
pre patch too. damage is still mid as shit compared to the rest of the skills and cast, but it can get by. Like a solid B tier for sorc lol
Just like druid even with every multiplier in existence, still hit shitty damage. But barbs n nerco can go hit over 50mill to 5billion damage. It's like they never test anything. Fkn druid can get 400%X Crit damage and still only hit 3mill with shred....

Bro I can’t wait!!! I hate immortal it’s so boring. But felt so necessary prior to the pit nerfs
@@Lurkin17 yes, immoral is boring, but seems not much buff to push further, sorc is already vulnerable enough, I don’t see damage reduction added to balance the one shot all the time
Nice! Turn those dmg numbers off if you can, hard to enjoy the gameplay if we can't see you.
then people complain they cant gauge the damage the build is doing. i literally cant win
@@Lurkin17 LMAO
@@Lurkin17 lol...tell them to put the calculators down for a sec...😆
I am one of the four people that want to play it 🥲
I’m here for you BB
Looks awesome.
Im a chain main as well, i feel you on this. love the look and feel not a fan of the damage it does lol
