Nice to see another great sorceress build. Unfortunately, I found a perfect 3 GA Staff of Lam Esen and have deleted it as I didn't think that there would be any builds that could use it.🥵
Hey man, damn that's brutal. Is this on Softcore Seasonal? I might have a spare that I can throw your way when I'm next able to get online as it turns out.
Been doing this build myself. Even leveling, Charged Bolts is a little under rated. I'll have to compare to what I have and see if your changes can push my build a little further. Cheers!
Hey man, Nice where have you got yours to? This one doesn't really pit push very well because it can't scale the poison damage in the high end that well... I have put together a monster charged bolts build for S6 though so long as things don't get changed before then! Check that one out if you haven't the video is available now =]
Silly question but mentioned going with Mystical Ice Armor because you're not spending enough mana to make shimmering worth it, but then you keep 3 points in Mana Shield which costs double that to activate. Why keep Mana Shield in there? Does it actually activate enough?
Yes this is a good point, those points could be move elsewhere and in the upcoming skill tree changes, they would absolutely move somewhere else. i’m going to play about with charged bolts on the PTR today actually so watch this space!
Hey man, Yer it's pretty fun, glad you enjoyed it. Really the only way you can is by straight damage % increasea and DoT damage increase. Sadly Intelligence doesn't scale it so the boss damage in the high ends suffers which I found to be the same on the PTR as well. I just released a preview of a Charged Bolts build coming in Season 6 (minus any changes & mercenaries), feel free to check it out, it slaps pretty hard! Thanks again for the kind comment.
I kept telling myself i would stick with Hydra this season because i find it fun. After slowly getting through T7 hoards with 300-400 i thought lets just give this a try......wow what a fun build and some serious damage. My staff and gloves are not the best and it still destroys everything.
Hey mate, Think I answered this on stream but crowd control damage only activates if an enemy is under a crowd control effect or if a boss is staggered. I'd advise at a minimum vulnerable damage which can apply to bosses at all times which is where sorceress builds tend to struggle more than mobbing.
Just another great video as usual!! I wish i had the gears you had equipped but unfortunately my gears are way far far behide compared to yours. But thank you for your itme and efforts
Hey man, Really appreciate the kind words, spent a lot of time on this one and my god is it fun as hell. This one came online way easier than Hydra in the endgame so long as you have the Andariels Visage as well. Glad you enjoyed it!
Armor cap is 9230. If you’re trying to do tier 6 you should be at armor cap without disobedience. You’re missing out of other damage reduction aspects.
Hey @mikekolasa6625 yes once above 9230 armour you no longer need more armour. You will want to focus on getting all your resistances to AT LEAST 70%, if not higher through maximum resistance increases, and then damage reduction aspects and modifiers that reduce the damage you take or damage the enemies apply to you. Beyond this, maximum life is very key on most sorceress builds as well for increasing the strength of the barriers they can generate. I hope this helps.
Hey, sorry for the late response, and yes this build really does require the Andariels Visage which isn't a common item, but it is super fun. I really appreciate the kind words, I hope you can get your Andys and have as much fun with this buld as I have!
Hey @droid5785, I appreciate you checking out the video. It really depends what you classify as meta as basically no one is / was playing it from that build because it was C tier at best so barely meta. I do appreciate some people may see it that way but my understanding of meta is it is the build or builds that are commonly played and known for beating the end game content, of which charged bolts has not been. Thank you for the insights though. =]
Hey, Thanks for checking out the video, you don’t have to swap the gear. I showed doing it with a raiments purely to prove it doesn’t require a tyraels to beat them as I got a lot of messages about that in the past. I hope that makes sense.
Hey, So X'fals is indeed viable but as I said to someone on stream the other day, there is a lack of aspect slots already on this build and storm swell is just so strong in season 5 because it's bugged and double/triple dips it's damage. This will be fixed in season 6 though. Thank you for checking out the video!
Heya, So the enchantment slots will be important for defence and cooldown reduction. The planner is here for this build: mobalytics.gg/diablo-4/profile/c45f570b-f44a-4b27-89c5-632ac7bf3ebf/builds/67fcd625-7029-4879-90ce-03dd615023ee Hopefully this helps! =]
Hey, So right now Storm Swell is bugged and is applying more than once under certain conditions. You can get up to 3 x benefit from Storm Swell if Ice Armour is is up, a separate barrier is up and then the enemies being vulnerable as well. This just outweights the creeping death damage tried and tested. If they fix Storm Swell then Creeping Death would be here instead. I hope this helps!
I am following the build but Im not sure why I dont have infinite mana. I run out of mana during NMD boss fight. Well, I lack masterworks on my equips though but I dont think that matters yeah? Or does it? Thanks.
A greater affix in the staff which at masterwork 12 goes to 87.8%. It makes charged bolts cost 4 mana. The Static Surge legendary node in the paragon boards helps as well.
@@imortilizeofficial i have yet to do masterwork and I think I have resolved the issue on the mana. i bought a 4GA staff and that resource cost reduction GA solves it. i am very much enjoying this build. thanks again mate!
Hey man, So in this case it's ok because we are using cooldowns frequently and have so much damage reduction it keeps up alive so long as a barrier is active, as demonstrated in video chapters against the bosses, hordes etc... The sorcerer class does tend to have far less HP than other classes in general to be fair. Hope you enjoyed the video!
Hey @EternallyGod, Which website are you referring to sorry? I only mention diablo.trade I believe which is not a gold selling website as far as I'm aware? I do not condone RMT or anything associated with it so if there is something I don't know then please let me know.
@@MB-mi4ed Hey mate, Glad you enjoyed it. Not sure what you’re benchmarking it against but the damage on this build is actually pretty good. If you’re comparing to the likes of lightning spear then yes it will be but for an off meta build is not bad at all ☺️
Hey man, Thanks for checking out the video. The use of Charged Bolts I would say is Off-Meta but if you feel it isn't than that is entirely within your right to think so :) I do hope you enjoyed the build content at least.
Man all those masterworks look extremely scuffed. Are people not resetting at 4 or 8 if the hits are obviously bad? Looks like A TON of wasted Neathiron
Hey mate, Yer so for the purpose of this build which I threw together in about 12 - 18 hours I pretty much just rolled stuff up as cheaply as I could. Given more time and attention i would obviously go back and masterwork much more cleanly, I hope you appreciate that I have a lot of builds I want to try though and just wanted to get something online to prove it's a viable build. I do hope you enjoyed the video either way!
This build is legitimately one of the most fun builds I've played. Fantastic work as usual.
I now have something else I can use 1 of my 3 andys visage mythics. I only have 4 mythics in total lolol
Hey,
Glad you're enjoying it, it is super fun to play!
Yay for mythics!
Been stuck on T7 bosses was using starlight did a quick swap and now I'm melting the game again. thank you
Hey man,
Sorry for the late reply been very busy!
Thank you for the kind words and glad to hear that you're melting and enjoying it! =]

There's so many ubers I have never even seen. Haha - this build looks awesome if I ever get Andariels
By the way, thanks for finding off meta builds! Most of the community finds the low hanging fruit builds that are simplest and easiest!

Please make a chain lightning equivalent of this. I feel like it's feasible.
I think there already is a Chain Lightning Andariels build but I'l look into it. Hope you enjoyed the video!

I run this same build with tyrael ans sos its nuts
Hey,
Yes I run this with Tyrael’s too, I just demonstrated with the Raiments to prove things can be done without the tyraels might ☺️
@@imortilizeofficial true its not needed since you can get 100% uptime on a barrier so youll be fine lol
Why u can use arrow skill?
Hey,
Thanks for checking out the video. I'm not sure I entirely get what you mean about the arrow skill? Do you mean the Holy Bolts effect attacks?
Good stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it! =]
Wouldnt the Temeriry pants be a better option , then storm swell is basically active all the time
Hey man,
Yer the Temerity is absolutely an option if you want to make it work. I just landed on this for my setup and it works pretty well overall.
Cool ill give it ago see how it works
Hello, what about xfals?
Hey,
So X'fals is indeed viable but as I said to someone on stream the other day, there is a lack of aspect slots already on this build and storm swell is just so strong in season 5 because it's bugged and double/triple dips it's damage. This will be fixed in season 6 though.

why no creeping death again?

The maximum I farmed solo in a T8 on this build solo was 900+ it all depends on the RNG of the alters of course. I hope this helps.
So pro!
