SorcererBlizzard Ice Spikes is one of the strongest leveling builds for the Sorcerer in Diablo 4. The glacial aspect makes ice spikes that are very strong early, the key is just finding one! You can certainly run Blizzard as pure cold damage over time until that point however.
For my endgame guide see Blizzard - King of the North
Glacial AspectThis guide requires Glacial Aspect, but you can use 
Blizzard without it.
Just slap a different Offensive aspect where Glacial Aspect would go.
You will just need to wing it skill tree wise until you unlock Blizzard. That's when the guide really starts. If you have mana issues run Wizard's Blizzard, otherwise use Mage's Blizzard.
Glacial Aspect is crucial. It can go on your Amulet if you don't want to re-imprint every time you find a new Staff. Glacial Aspect scales by 10% per rank to BlizzardAspect of Frozen Memories is important for reducing our cast costAspect of Biting Cold is for damage and vulnerableAspect of the Frozen Wake increase our Ice Spike damage by 90%Aspect of the Frozen Tundra increases Ice Spike's radius by 50% which increases single target damage by a lot
Aspect of Disobedience grants additional armor for damage reductionSnowguard's Aspect grants us damage reduction
Aspect of Mind's Awakening grants us barriers for 5 seconds after casting Blizzard
Aspect of the Bounding Conduit reduces our Teleport skill bar cooldown for going faster

Stats
For Max Damage you want to rush Legendary nodes as they each provide 60% damage. You will need to drop Fireball enchant for Ice Blades enchant when you reach the enchantment master legendary node to get any damage for Blizzard and the Glacial Aspect when you get there.
Blizzard is your main caster that deals most of it's damage through ice spikes created with the Glacial AspectInvoked Familiar is there to add 10% frost skill damage (Works for ice spikes)Summoned Ice Blades provide cooldown reductionIce Armor provides barriers and Shimmering Ice Armor helps reduce it's cooldown by spending manaTeleport is for movement and creating crackling for 
ConvulsionsFlame Shield is a staple in survivability, granting you 2 seconds of immunity framesFireball enchant helps aid in killing trash mobs for XP farming efficiencyTeleport enchant adds some extra mobility on a 5 second cooldown (That cannot be lowered by any means besides lowering to 3.5 seconds with the Enchantment Master Legendary Node)Just spam cast Blizzard and hose enemies. I mainly like to level doing the seasonal activity or by opening chests in helltides which provide a lot of XP. The 
Essence of Squalor seasonal divine gift also makes maggots spawn in helltide that grant XP. In addition you can farm the new Azmodan Boss in Hawezar.
