Sorcerer Mastery Leveling Build for Last Epoch

This Sorcerer mastery leveling guide is designed to get us started in the right direction with your new Mastery, by offering a simple skill setup to assist us while we play through main story act of the game and begin the Monolith endgame. We have chosen a set of skills and passives that create an effective and yet simplistic play style that can rapidly push our character to level 70 and complete the main campaign.

This build uses  Fireballs with homing to chase enemies down while we move around the map with our  Teleport. We also have some great utility skills with  Elemental Nova and  Focus, perfect for helping us control the flow of battle. As enemies pile up around us, we can pull out the big guns with  Meteor, exploding them in a bombardment of fiery hell. You are truly the master of fire with our stats and passive trees pushing out as much fire damage as possible. Add any number of the uniques we have highlighted in this build and you will blitzing your way to level 70.

This build has a very simple setup for the basic rotation.  Teleport to a position in the middle of several groups of mobs and start unleashing your  Fireballs pulling each group towards you. Once you have collected a ton of enemies, ready your  Meteor and wipe out the packs around you. If you need reset your position by moving or using  Teleport again, it should be recharge quick enough with the added points in its skill tree. Continue this pattern until you are depleted of mana then channel your  Focus to charge up both your Health and Mana pools. Once you are refreshed, repeat the process again. It is quite simple and the build offers you a fair bit of escape if you need and on the spot healing if you get too low.

As for gearing, we will be targeting Fire based stats and some Health/Resistance for our caster. You should aim to upgrade your gear using a loot filter to highlight the gear you need with the right affixes. This game also carries a substantial crafting system where you will be able to augment pieces of gear you find with either strong affixes or craft new one you can add to an empty slot. There is a deeper look at the crafting system in the link below.

Attributes	Offensive	Defensive
Intelligence Vitality	Increased Fire Damage Increased Spell Damage Increased Cast Speed Critical Strike Chance Critical Strike Multiplier Chance to Shred Fire Resistance on hit	Armor Resistances Spell Damage Leeched as Health

As you go through the game we will come across many uniques, while the majority of low-level uniques should be set aside for leveling alts (Yay, for unlimited stash space), we will want to keep our eyes out for these specific items to assist with the build. While none of these have huge build changing affixes the majority of them are similar very good items you can scale easily with. One of themes you will see with these uniques is Movement speed, this affix accelerates gameplay even just from being able to go around faster the battlefield.

If you happen to come across the unique weapon  Firestarter's Torch, this weapon will likely be your best option for a weapon until we find something we can craft with higher values in our 40s or 50s. Despite its level, this unique carries some great damage that scales quite well with our build.

As for some unique armor pieces to keep an eye out for, the  Calamity and  Prism Wraps, both offer some nice boosts around Elemental Damage. These can really push our DPS up noticeably higher with  Fireball and  Meteor. Add in Legendary Potential and you have some great items to keep for alt characters.

Another great unique for this build, is the  Gambler's Fallacy. This amulet benefits all the Critical Strike Chance we have stack into this build. As for other jewelry to keep any eye out for, the unique ring  Font of the Erased adds some great Ward gains as we spend our Mana, granting us a nice defensive layer from just casting our skills.

Next, this build operates best with Spell Leech items, you may come across are the unique gloves  Avarice and unique relic  Tome of Elements, both offering Health Leech to us. Be on the look out, as both of these may literally save your life.

Lastly, we must talk about unique boots, particularly the  Advent of the Erased. These boots have a chance of granting Haste on us every time we kill an enemy, and our  Meteor will be killing a lot of enemies.

Despite the lower level of these uniques, they are quite valuable and can help push you that much faster to level 70. These can all be expanded into fantastic items if found with Legendary Potential for any future leveling needs. Good luck hunting and may your luck be high!

Idol slots are gained through the campaign, unlocking small bonuses and unique affixes for the player to discover and augment their builds with. The Idol screen consists of a grid system for the player to fill out with different sized idols, eventually filling in every part of the grid. As the Idol shape increases (1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, etc.) the stronger an affix you might find for your build.

The target Affixes we want to look for in our Idols are:

• +% Health
• + Health
• Resistances

This build will carry you all the way to the start of the Monolith, where you will need to decide on an Endgame build to follow. We have several options available for Sorcerer.
