Lightning is the most versatile specialization available to the Sorceress, and it also has the most powerful end-game capabilities of any of the specializations. For leveling and early Ladder, this is not a recommended option due to the high level of equipment required, as well as the difficulty of dealing with a large number of Lightning immune monsters on Hell difficulty during the first battle with them. The good news is that once you have acquired all of the necessary equipment, it is one of the best end-game farming builds available in the game, boasting insane mobility and uncanny speed to match. This strategy allows you to kill the majority of enemies relatively quickly, break immunities with Griffon's Eye and Infinity Merc, and maintain a respectable Magic Find stat without having to sacrifice too much of your overall performance while maintaining a respectable Magic Find stat.

In this guide, we've compiled a list of the vast majority of the viable end-game items available. Due to the fact that it is now recommended to use other Sorceress builds, such as Blizzard/Frozen Orb/Meteor, and their corresponding sets of equipment for leveling up characters below 80 or so rather than the following build, the following build does not include any low-level or leveling items.

FEATURES THAT SET THEM APART

After equipping all of the necessary equipment, there are only a few points left over in terms of strength. Consider that some equipment can provide Strength on its own when worn; therefore, it is best to calculate this before allocating points in this section of the guideline. To give an example, you can obtain the stats required on Charms before equipping the Item with the corresponding stat, which will then allow you to replace those Charms with the Charms that are currently in your inventory.

When it comes to Dexterity, it's similar to Strength in that you only need enough Dexterity to meet the demands of your equipment.

This is your most important stat, and it should receive all of the points you have left in the game to improve it.

Energy - there are no points to be added to the Energy column.

INTRODUCTION TO THE SPELLS OF WINTER

You should only put one point into Frozen Armor, which is the primary defensive buff for the Sorceress class and should be given one point. The only other Cold Spell you should put one point into is Frostbite. A single point is sufficient because it will be increased globally as a result of your equipment and will provide sufficient defensive bonuses for your character as a result of the increased value of your equipment.

EXAMPLES OF LIGHTNING MAGIC

From the ground up, this is the Skill Tree that will be used for the creation of this Lightning Sorceress character. All of the skills listed in this section, with the exception of Energy Shield (which may be useful in alternate versions of this build), will be taken by you, with the exception of Energy Shield. In addition, whether or not you choose to use Teleport will be determined by whether or not you are using Enigma. Aside from that, you want to make sure that all of your Lightning DPS skills, including Lightning and Chain Lightning, as well as all of its synergy skills that increase its damage, are performing to their full potential.

MAGICAL SPELLS OF FIRE

From this group, we only require one Skill, and it should be one that helps us recover more mana after a battle. In this case, one point is sufficient, just as it was in the case of Frozen Armor. This area can also serve as a storage area for any additional points earned after reaching level 94.

In order to obtain the 117% Faster Cast Rate, you should try to plan your build in such a way that you can obtain HoTO, Griffon's, Spirit, and Arachnid Mesh - all of which are fairly standard pieces of equipment for Sorceress - as early as possible in the process of building your Sorceress. In the following stages, you should aim to raise the level of your All and then Lightning Skills, to obtain faster hit recovery (obtaining Spirit Monarch should suffice), and to add various types of additional Lightning Damage to spells (obtaining Spirit Monarch should suffice). If you intend to deal with Lightning Immune monsters in your raid, obtaining Infinity Merc and Griffon's Eye is highly recommended.

Remember that the Griffon's Eye (Diadem) is the BiS item for this build because it grants increases to All Skills, as well as a high FCR and most importantly, a high Lightning Resistance Penetration. The Griffon's Eye (Diadem) grants increases to All Skills, as well as a high FCR and most importantly, a high Lightning Resistance Penetration. This is the most advantageous option in terms of DPS.

When Diablo 2 resurrected runes comes to farming mid-tier content, Harlequin Crest (Shako) is yet another excellent option worth considering. Although it is primarily recommended for its MF stat if you are looking to maximize your loot while farming, it is also recommended for other reasons. You will be severely lacking in DPS, and dealing with monsters that are immune to lightning will be particularly difficult.

Corona (Crown of Ages) is a fantastic and slightly more defensive option to take into consideration. Although it provides a respectable DPS boost even when equipped with two 5/5 Lightning Rainbow Facets, it does so while also significantly increasing your survivability.

Because of this, this build heavily relies on Act 2 Mercenary with equipped Infinity to a significant degree in order to break Monster immunity (or simply increase your Lightning DPS). It is also recommended that you choose one that has the Might Aura because it will increase your Merc's physical damage while also allowing him to deal additional damage to enemies (including those with higher Lightning Resistance).
