Diablo 4 Sorcerer BuildArc Lash - Gotta Go Fast
Arc Lash is a basic skill lightning build that hits hard and fast. It is very easy to play as you just run up on enemies and hack away. You will have permanent uptime on your Unstable Currents Ultimate for even more attack speed and create a ton of Lightning skills out of thin air.
Arc Lash is poised to hit harder than ever the addition of the new Unique Verathiel Sword. In addition, Arc Lash received a buff to it's Flickering skill tree node that will grant 50% bonus damage to bosses and groups of 3 or more enemies.
Verathiel makes Arc Lash cost 25 mana, which at first sounds terrible. But it enables us to use the newly buffed Starless Skies Uber Ring. Sorcerer does a very good job at handling mana concerns, so it should not be an issue.

Build Notes
1) Evade or teleport into enemies to clump them
2) Move a bit to the side so you can hit all the enemies with your swipe • With the Snowveiled aspect you will always be unstoppable when you have ice armor and should not get stuck
3) Use all cooldowns whenever possible and piano your fingers. Welcome to Sorcerer
4) Evade liberally to group up enemies and dodge ground effects
How it works This build utilizes the Verathiel Sword to allow Arc Lash to pump out big damage, at the expense of now costing 25 mana. We utilize the Starless Skies Ring to help mitigate this cost, as well as the innate mana regeneration that comes with the Conjuration Mastery Passive.
Key Passives Our Key passive of choice is Vyr's Mastery, as it provides 25% damage reduction and 25% extra damage on single target. You get 10% damage when mobs are grouped together. This passive relies heavily on critical strikes to gain this bonus damage, so we aim to get 100% critical strike chance. For this reason, we chose to not run paingorgers gloves, as the item does not benefit from critical strikes.
Burning Because we have so much critical strike chance, it makes sense to use Firebolt Enchantment as well. This will allow us to gain damage from the Devouring Blaze Passive that increases our critical strike damage by a hefty amount. In the paragon we can use the Flamefeeder Glyph for more damage and utilize damage reduction from burning enemies. Lastly, we can use the newly buffed Warmth Passive, to continuously heal from all the burning enemies near us. With 6 ranks, we can heal for 24% of max life per second. Insane.
Teleport Attacks reduce evade boots are a must for this build. These allow you to evade rapidly and keep enemies clumped to utilize Flickering Arc Lash for 50% more damage. If you do not have good boots, you can always just use Flickersteps.
