Arc Lash Sorcerer Endgame Build for Diablo 4 (Season 3)

Lightning Stun Build with Unstable Currents

The Arc Lash Sorcerer build is ideal for players wanting a simple, yet effective, melee playstyle. This is the fastest Sorcerer build in terms of mobility, and the build is extremely effective at speed farming all endgame activities in Diablo 4.

Compared to similar Lightning Sorcerer endgame builds that are ranked high on the tier list, like Ball Lightning and Charged Bolts, the Arc Lash Sorcerer has lower single-target damage. The Arc Lash Sorcerer clears easy content faster than any other build, but bosses can take longer to kill.

This endgame build guide assumes your character is at least Level 50. Check the Sorcerer Leveling Guide if you need help getting there.

Mid Season 3 Update (Patch 1.3.3): The newly added Moonrise Aspect increases the damage of Arc Lash. The higher Basic Skill damage allows the Arc Lash Sorcerer to deal more damage with the echo effect from Paingorger’s Gauntlets, and rely less on damage from other skills activated from Unstable Currents. The newly added Hectic Aspect provides another method to achieve 100% uptime on Unstable Currents, besides Flickerstep. The Legendary Aspect section has been updated with both new Aspects.

• Moonrise Aspect
  • Damaging an enemy with a Basic skill grants you 4% Attack Speed for 10 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. Upon reaching maximum stacks, you enter a Vampiric Bloodrage, gaining 40-80% Basic Skill damage and 15% Movement Speed for 10 seconds.
• Hectic Aspect
  • For every 5 Basic Skills you cast, one of your active Cooldowns is reduced by 2-4 seconds.

Best Seneschal Construct Companion Powers

The Season 3 theme introduces a Seneschal Construct Companion that can deal damage or provide support to complement your character. Equip the Seneschal with two Governing Stones to activate their abilities, and then link them to three Tuning Stones each to augment the abilities. There are 12 different Governing Stones and 27 different Tuning Stones that can be found in Vaults scattered across Sanctuary. Fuse together duplicate stones to level them up, increasing the potency of Governing Stones or adding augments to Tuning Stones.

Listed below is the best Seneschal Construct Companion setup for Arc Lash Sorcerers. The first 2 Governing Stone setups are equipped for the construct to support the player. The 3rd setup is equipped for the construct to deal high damage on its own. Although only 3 Tuning Stones can be linked to each Governing Stone, alternative options are provided and sorted in order of importance.

1. Flash of Adrenaline: Administers a quick flash of adrenaline into the player, granting bonus damage for a duration.
   • Genesis: Increase the effectiveness of the supported Skill.
   • Tactical Support: Decrease the cooldown of the supported Skill.
   • Duration Support: Supported Skills have their durations increased.
   • Fortify Support: When the Seneschal Construct uses the supported Skill, you gain Fortify. Skills with slower attack speeds or skills with cooldowns will increase the amount of Fortify granted.
2. Impale: Perform a line attack to all enemies in front of the Seneschal Construct dealing damage. — This attack setup is used for a supportive construct, buffing the player to deal more damage.
   • Evernight: The supported Skill grants you +4 to all Skills when used.
   • Efficiency Support: When the supporting skill deals damage, you gain Critical Strike Chance to the same targets hit.
   • Burning Support (Optional): A portion of he supported Skill’s damage is applied as Burning damage over time. Burning enemies take bonus Critical Strike Damage from the Seneschal Construct. — This Tuning Stone can be used to apply Burning instead of Firebolt Enchantment.
   • Safeguard Support: When used, the supported Skill grants Damage Reduction to you.
   • Breaking Support: Damage from the supported Skill instantly destroys enemy Barrier effects. In addition, there is a chance to make enemies Vulnerable for 2 seconds.
3. Firefly: Deploy a small construct that lands on the target and explodes 3 times, dealing damage. — Replace the Impale setup to enable more damage output from the construct.
   • Multishot Support: Supported Projectile skills launch additional projectiles.
   • Piercing Support: The supported Projectile Skill will pierce multiple enemies.
   • Seeking Support: The supported Projectile Skill will auto-seek enemies for a limited duration.

Enchantment Slots

This Basic Attack build uses Fire Bolt in the first Enchantment Slot to activate Burning bonuses from Devouring Blaze and Paragon.

In the second Enchantment Slot, Ball Lightning is used due to its high AoE damage output. Teleport Enchantment is equipped instead in the Telestomp build variant.

Hardcore players may use Flame Shield as an alternative option, as it provides a cheat death functionality (with a 120 seconds cooldown).

Paragon

The Paragon progression system unlocks after reaching Level 50, and offers a considerable boost to character power. Within the Paragon Board, there are many different bonuses, ranging from minor stat enhancements on Magic Nodes to more significant gains with Rare Glyphs and Legendary Nodes.

Important Notes:

• Additional Bonus requirements on Rare Glyphs may not be obtainable until they gain increased radius range at Level 15.
• Attach Legendary Boards in the correct order. Bonus requirements of Rare Nodes increase with their placement order.
• Make sure you rotate Legendary Boards into the correct orientation.

Mechanics and Playstyle

Playing the Arc Lash Sorcerer is fairly simple, but requires careful management of Cooldowns. Arc Lash deals most of the overall damage output with multiple sources of increased Basic Skill damage, while rapidly activating other Shock Skills with Unstable Currents to supplement additional damage.

Skill Points are allocated into Ball Lightning and Charged Bolts, but not actually slotted into the Skill Bar. Glinting Arc Lash and Hectic Aspect on Legendary Boots (or Flickerstep) reduces Unstable Currents cooldown, so activate the Ultimate Skill often.

Each cast of Arc Lash has a 25% chance of spawning Lightning Spear while Unstable Currents is active. Lightning Spear counts as a Conjuration Skill to gain increased damage stacks from Conjuration Mastery, and the spear applies Vulnerable on Critical Strike.

Esu’s Ferocity is currently bugged to work with any type of damage. Combined with Aspect of Ancient Flame, Arc Lash gains a massive Attack Speed increase.

Ice Blades reduces other Cooldown Skills by only 0.1 seconds with each attack through Enhanced Ice Blades and Summoned Ice Blades. Although, the Cold damage is mainly used to grant a third damage stack from Tal Rasha’s Iridescent Loop.

Survivability is achieved through the use of three Defensive Skills, Flame Shield, Ice Armor and Shimmering Teleport. In addition, each Cooldown Skill casted grants a Barrier from Protection. Proper use of these Skills can keep a Sorcerer alive through the toughest battles, despite having a low Life pool.

Damage Rotation

Use the following rotation to optimize damage.

1. Activate Unstable Currents often, as the Cooldown is reduced frequently.
2. Spam Arc Lash.
3. Use Ice Armor, Teleport and Flame Shield to activate Barriers from Protection.

Gear Choice and Stat Priority in the Endgame

During farming sessions with Arc Lash Sorceress, make sure to pick up all Rare Item drops that may be upgrades. Additionally, save Legendary Items that have useful aspects in your stash to be used later, or for extracting and imprinting onto well rolled Rare Items.

A One-handed Weapon and Focus setup is preferred over a Staff for more beneficial utility affixes and a faster Weapon Speed. If you are utilizing any Lucky Hit effects, such as Ball Lightning Enchantment, equip a Wand. Otherwise, equip a Dagger for increased Damage to Close Enemies on the implicit stat.

Higher Item Level gear provides higher stat values. Replace outdated gear often, and upgrade new gear at the Blacksmith to increase Item Levels further.

Stat Priority List

Listed below are the affixes to prioritize on gear for Arc Lash Sorcerers. Each line of affixes are listed in order of importance. Affixes on the same line are considered to be equally important, but their benefits may vary depending how much is stacked or other character stats. Bolded stats are the most important and sometimes vital for the build to function properly.

The priority order of Resistances is Lightning > Poison > Fire > Cold > Shadow. Maximum Resistance is 70% by default for each element and can be increased to 85% by various sources.

Legendary Aspects and Codex of Power

Listed below are all the best-in-slot Aspects found on Legendary Items that are important for the Arc Lash Sorcerer build. Aspects from the Codex of Power can be used if you cannot find the proper Legendary drops, but they have weaker effects. Extract Aspects from lower level Legendary Items and imprint them onto better Rare Items with preferred stats.

Aspect of Ancient Flame can provide up to 75% increased Attack Speed on an Amulet. Additional Attack Speed can be obtained on Gloves and Paragon, up to a 100% Attack Speed bonus cap. Accelerating Aspect is not affected by the cap and can increase Attack Speed bonus above 100%.

Gear Slot	Aspect Name	Legendary Aspect Power
Amulet (+50% bonus effect)	Aspect of Ancient Flame	While both bonuses from Esu’s Ferocity Key Passive are active, your Attack Speed is increased by [40 – 50%] .
Ring Slot #1 (optional replacement with Tal Rasha’s Iridescent Loop)	Accelerating Aspect	Critical Strikes with Core Skills increase your Attack Speed by [15 – 25%] for 3 seconds.
Ring Slot #2	Aspect of Adaptability	When cast below 50% Maximum Resource, Basic Skills generate 3 of your Primary Resource, once per cast. When cast at or above 50% Maximum Resource, Basic Skills deal [40 – 80%] increased damage.
Wand or Focus	Storm Swell Aspect	You deal x [21 – 30%] increased damage to Vulnerable enemies while you have a Barrier.
Wand or Focus	Rapid Aspect	Basic Skills gain [15 – 30%] Attack Speed.
Gloves (replaced by Paingorger’s Gauntlets)	Conceited Aspect	Deal [15 – 25%] increased damage while you have a Barrier active.
Chest (replaced by Raiment of the Infinite)	Exploiter’s Aspect	You have 20% increased Crowd Control Duration. While enemies are Unstoppable, you deal [20 – 50%] increased damage to them.
Helm or Pants	Aspect of Might	Basic Skills grant 20% Damage Reduction for [2.0 – 6.0] seconds.
Helm or Pants	Aspect of Disobedience	You gain [0.6 – 1.1%] increased Armor for 4 seconds when you deal any form of damage, stacking up to [36 – 66%].
Boots (optional replacement withFlickerstep)	Hectic Aspect	For every 5 Basic Skills you cast, one of your active Cooldowns is reduced by [2.0 – 4.0] seconds.

Unique Items

Listed below are the recommended and optional Unique Items for this build.

• Raiment of the Infinite (Highly Recommended): This Unique Chest Armor synergizes well with this build to group and Stun enemies. Check the Telestomp Build Variant section for more details.
• Tal Rasha’s Iridescent Loop (Recommended for Maximum DPS): This Malignant Unique Ring can provide a 45% multiplier with 3 elemental damage stacks for a maximum DPS setup.
• Harlequin Crest (Recommended Uber Unique): This powerful Uber Unique provides the best of offensive and defense, if you are lucky enough for it to drop from Uber Duriel. Remove Aspect of Might and keep Aspect of Disobedience on Legendary Pants.
• Melted Heart of Selig (Recommended Build Variant): This Uber Unique is used in the Immortal Build Variant to survive difficult content.
• Flickerstep (Optional): The unique effect from these boots has been fixed to work with Teleport Enchantment in Patch 1.3.0. Similar to Hectic Aspect, Flickerstep can provide 100% uptime on Unstable Currents.
• Esu’s Heirloom (Optional): These Unique Boots can provide a decent amount of Critical Strike Chance with enough Movement Speed stacking. Swap to Flickering Arc Lash for additional effect.
• Paingorger’s Gauntlets (Recommended): Although these Unique Gloves do not increase damage done by Unstable Currents procs or Ball Lightning Enchantment, they provide a substantial damage increase to Arc Lash damage.
• Fists of Fate (Optional): These Unique Gloves increase overall damage by 50%, if they roll a perfect 300% value. Although, they are still a minor loss in total DPS compared to well-rolled Legendary Gloves with Attack Speed, Critical Strike Chance, Lightning Critical Strike Damage and an Offensive Aspect.

Not Recommended Unique items

Listed below are the Unique Items not recommended for this build and the reasons they are not worthwhile.

• Tibault’s Will: The unique effect provides a huge separate damage multiplier if rolled at 40%, but you lose 2 Damage Reduction affixes, a Defensive Aspect and +4 Ranks of Ball Lightning.
• The Oculus – The random Teleport location is a major downside. The unique affix, Attacks Reduce Evade’s Cooldown, can be obtained as an implicit affix on Legendary Boots instead. The Telestomp Variant is a better setup that already allows for permanent stun-locking and non-random Teleport locations. In addition, a Legendary Weapon provides much more DPS with damage affixes and an Offensive Aspect.
• Frostburn – These Unique Gloves are a major DPS loss compared to well-rolled Legendary Gloves or Fists of Fate.
• Iceheart Brais – The occasional Frost Nova on enemy death should not be needed, and it does not help while moving from pack to pack. Legendary Pants provide more important Damage Reduction affixes and a Defensive Aspect.

Gems

Listed below are the best Gems to socket into gear for each slot type.

• Weapon: Royal Emerald for Critical Strike Damage to Vulnerable enemies.
• Armor: Royal Ruby for Maximum Life or Royal Topaz to prevent deaths from chain Crowd Controls.
• Jewelry: Royal Skull for Armor or Individual Resistance Gems for Resistances that are not already capped at 70%. The priority order of Resistances is Lightning > Poison > Fire > Cold > Shadow.

Elixirs and Health Potions

Visit the Alchemist in any main town to craft helpful Elixirs that increase stats and experience gain for 30 minutes. Make sure to forage plants and pick up the necessary crafting materials during your adventures; they randomly spawn around the world.

Listed below are the best Elixirs to consume, ranked by importance. Elixirs that are not available at the Alchemist can only be found as drops. Open Splitting Steel and Mystery Chests in Helltides to farm non-craftable Elixirs.

1. Iron Skin Elixir (non-craftable): Essential to cap Armor against high level enemies, especially in Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeons. Alternatively, Heady Iron Barb Elixir can be crafted at the Alchemist.
2. Elixir of Cruelty (non-craftable): Provides the highest source of Critical Strike Chance from an Elixir, if not already capped at 100%. Alternatively, Heady Precision Elixir can be crafted at the Alchemist.
3. Elixir of Fortitude (non-craftable): Maximum Life increases Barrier amount and reduces Mana drain from Melted Heart of Selig.
4. Elixir of Combatant Fortune (non-craftable): Lucky Hit Chance provides more Ball Lightning Enchantment procs.
5. Heady Assault Elixir (craftable): Attack Speed allows for faster spamming of Arc Lash.

Return to the Alchemist again when you reach Level 20, 30, 45, 60, 70, 80 and 90, to upgrade your potion. The extra healing is essential to survival.

Telestomp Arc Lash Sorcerer Build Variant

Telestomp Arc Lash Sorcerer is a Stun variant build created by Lexyu. This setup is designed to speed farm Normal or Nightmare Dungeons even faster for more experience and loot.

Raiment of the Infinite allows this build to use 2 sources of Teleport offensively. Teleporting on top of enemies to Stun and group them up is called “Telestomping”. This playstyle can quickly clear groups of enemies and keep them Crowd Controlled (CC) for safety, perfect for speed farming Nightmare Dungeons!

This version of the build requires the Unique Chest Armor, Raiment of the Infinite. Target farm Raiment of the Infinite from the uber version of Varshan and Lord Zir for the best chances of it dropping. Once the required item is obtained, continue with the following changes to the original version of the Arc Lash Sorcerer.

• Equip Raiment of the Infinite to enable Telestomps.
• Replace Ball Lightning with Teleport in the Enchantment Slots to make use of the Stun on Raiment of the Infinite. The extra Teleport that replaces Evade also benefits from additional Ranks to Teleport, Cooldown Reduction and Attacks Reduce Evade’s Cooldown implicit effect on Boots. Fire Bolt stays in the other Enchantment Slot, due to the strong benefits of Devouring Blaze and Burning Effects from Paragon.
• Equip Flickerstep. If you want to use Legendary Boots, make sure they have Attacks Reduce Evade’s Cooldown by 1.2 Seconds as the implicit effect. Upgrade Boots 5 times at the Blacksmith to get the highest effect possible. Use the Evade Teleport foremost and often, as the Cooldown is quickly reduced. Get into a rhythm of Telestomping a group of enemies from a distance to engage, spamming Ball Lightning and then moving on to the next pack to repeat.
• Prioritize Boots with +4 Ranks of Teleport. Leftover Skill Points can also be used to increase Teleport Level.

Immortal Arc Lash Sorcerer Build Variant

The Immortal Arc Lash Sorcerer requires Melted Heart of Selig, an Uber Unique Amulet that has an extremely low chance to drop from Uber Duriel. The Unique effect turns Mana into a defensive resource that protects your Life, in addition to Barrier. Combined with Maximum Mana and Resource Generation, this setup makes you insanely tanky. The Immortal build variant is highly recommended to survive difficult content, such as Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeons or endgame seasonal content. If you are lucky enough to find the Melted Heart of Selig, continue with the following changes to the original version of the Arc Lash Sorcerer!

• Equip Melted Heart of Selig.
• Optional change for more survivability: An Offensive Aspect can also be replaced with Aspect of Concentration. Damage taken while Melted Heart of Selig is equipped does not remove the Mana Regeneration effect, as long as you have Mana to drain instead of losing Life.
• Utilize Damage Reduction while Injured affixes on Pants and Boots. You can drop below 35% life, before regaining Mana and applying Barrier to stay Injured (also known as low life).
• Make sure you prioritize Resource Generation affixes on Rings and Focus.
