Diablo 4: Best Sorcerer leveling build

Overall, the best Sorcerer leveling build for Diablo 4 Season 4 has to be the Fireball Sorcerer build. This was the build that got me through the most dangerous waves of enemies in the Helltides in the nick of time while still getting to have a blast.

Best Fireball Sorcerer leveling build skills

  • Fireball
  • Fire Bolt
  • Frost Nova
  • Teleport
  • Hydra
  • Inferno

The main star of the show is Fireball which can deal massive AoE damage to enemy groups once leveled up enough. Then you have Fire Bolt for your Basic skill that can aid in dealing Burning damage over time.

Frost Nova is the main Defensive skill that can cause enemies to Freeze around you, which leads to even more damage with this debuff. Another good Defensive skill is Teleport, which gives you decent mobility on the battlefield.

Hydra is your central Conjuration skill that can be summoned twice with the Summoned Hydra skill. Finally, Inferno is your Ultimate skill that can pull enemies into a small area for focused damage.

Enchantment slot

Upon reaching Level 15, you can complete the quest that unlocks your first Enchantment slot. You’ll then unlock the second at Level 30. I recommend you slot Fireball as your first Enchantment slot since whenever you kill an enemy it makes them explode in a Fireball for 50% of its damage.

For the second slot, go for either Teleport or Fire Bolt. Teleport will swap your Evade for a Teleport once in a while, and Fire Bolt is good for applying additional Burning damage over time from direct skill damage.
