Build Overview

If you're looking for one of the best Sorc build in Season 13, Static Field Blizzard is definitely one of them and this guide will teach you all you need to know about how to make the most out of Blizzard's Damage.

The short version is that Static Field Blizzard has powerful scaling and when combined with things like Raiment of the Sea and Aspect of Armageddon. The dots start ticking for Trillions of Damage.

This variant of the build is designed to create consistency in helping with all ACTIVITIES.

It is designed in such a way as to not require strenuous effort on your hands, have smooth gameplay flow, mobility, and survivability.

Please read through the How it works section of the planner to get a more detailed explanation on build function and breakpoints for you and your blizzard. and if you have further questions you can join me live on Twitch, YouTube. If you have questions while I'm not live, join Discord. We have a team and community ready to answer all your questions!

Strengths and Weaknesses

  • Illegal Levels of Damage
  • Does Not Give Carpal Tunnel to Play
  • Very mobile
  • Good Survivability
  • Breakpoints Drastically Improve DPS when met
  • Squishy when cooldowns are not available

Build Variants

This version assumes you have all the gear, aspects, and gems to hit specific breakpoints for it to function. We no longer need any Cooldown Reduction or Critical Hit Chance in the build as we have now successfully achieved enough ranks into shock skill from our BerĂº of the Threefold charms.

Mythic Uniques:

Harlequin Crest Turns out, 20% damage reduction and +4 ranks to all skills is pretty busted

Ring of Starless Skies The attack speed, 50%[x] multiplier, and +2 ranks to core skills is the real reason we run this ring. Everything else is meh, lhc is nice for Boundless Unstable Currents

Uniques:

Raiment of the Sea Big damage

Aspects:

Aspect of Armageddon Massive Damage WHEN Unstable Currents IS ACTIVE. That's why we need to figure out how to upkeep Unstable Currents to employ a permanent +400%[x] Multiplier.

Aspect of Elemental Constellation With the combination of spells we have, this will be active.

Storm Splitter's Aspect Big Damage

Aspect of Arrogance The combination of: Immobilize Meteor, Reverse Polarity Lightning Spear, and Frozen Orb means everything will be stunned all the time.

Accelerating Aspect Helps us hit specific attack speed breakpoints with Static Field Blizzard, this will cascade into giving us enormous dps and uptime on Unstable Currents

Aspect of Heavenly Strength Raw damage reduction


Talismans

Talisman Priority
+5

BerĂº of the Threefold Set is really strong when combine with Frigid Hydra Hydra due to it's ability to proc 2 elements at once giving us amazing damage.

At the same time, it also causes spam of Overpower Meteor that generates overpowers for our Blaze Teleport to have teleport spam.

Skills

Note: Some Skills will have +(#) points due to gear. I will put two numbers up being 1/15 and 7/15. This will show the amount allocated vs the actual amount in skill tree from gear. There are specific choices due to breakpoints in the skill effects.

Frozen Orb 1/15 Points: Utility Enchantment, applies vulnerable to everything for us as well as applies Crowd Control.

  • Barrier Frozen Orb Provides some defense through shielding.
  • Duration Bonus Frozen Orb Flies longer = more stuff becomes vulnerable
  • Shattered Path Frozen Orb What applies "Vulnerable"

Charged Bolts 1/15 Points: Utility Spell, it combos with Unstable Currents by being cast automatically. If it hits targets it Weakens them and gives bonus multiplicative Move Speed.

  • Movement Speed Charged Bolts More movement speed
  • Weaken Charged Bolts Better Defense

Flame Shield 1/15 Utility Spell. Gives immunity to damage and fire spell for Aspect of Elemental Constellation

  • Duration Bonus Flame Shield Longer duration + Less Deaths
  • Cooldown Reduction Flame Shield More uptime = Less Deaths
  • Scorch Flame Shield Cc's things which help with stagger generation on bosses

Teleport 1/15 Points: Utility Spell, Extra Point stun a little longer, but not enough to devote + points into

  • Ferocity Teleport Attacking faster means faster rotations and smoother gameplay
  • Weaken Teleport Allows us to be more tanky
  • Blaze Teleport Combined with overpower generated by BerĂº of the Threefold + Overpower Meteor, we can perma spam teleport like the good ole' days

Ice Armor 15/15 Points: Makes you invincible due to armor effecting general damage reduction rather than just Physical Damage. This is where you dump any extra points as it improves %armor given.

  • Cooldown Reduction Ice Armor Smaller Cooldown means its up more often
  • Duration Bonus and Barrier Ice Armor Longer uptime and more armor
  • Permafrost Ice Armor unstoppable means we cannot be crowd controlled + even more armor

Hydra 1/15 Points: Applies CDR for Boundless Unstable Currents and double stack generation for BerĂº of the Threefold

  • Cooldown Reduction Hydra Reduces cooldowns of abilities. The more targets hit, the more cdr generated
  • Frigid Hydra Hydra Applies 2 stacks of Fer of the Threefold for very fast damage ramp

Lightning Spear 1/15 Points: Utility Spell - Automatically casted due to Unstable Currents

  • Projectile Speed Lightning Spear Faster Spears = Stun before things die, applying our damage multiplier from Aspect of Arrogance
  • Reverse Polarity Lightning Spear Stuns the target

Ball Lightning 1/15 Points: Utility Spell - Automatically casted due to Unstable Currents.

  • Multiple Projectiles Ball Lightning More balls = More Crackling Energy
  • Crackling Energy Ball Lightning Creates Crackling energy for our Boundless Unstable Currents
  • Orbital Ball Lightning Allows the dissipation of ball lightning to be at our feet for easy crackling energy pick up

Blizzard 15/15 Points: Main Damage

  • Damage Bonus Blizzard We freeze very often with Frozen Orb and Frost Nova, More Damage
  • Seek and Duration Bonus Blizzard More uptime = More Dps
  • Static Field Blizzard Scales at wild amount, make no sense. Big Damage


Ultimate:

Unstable Currents 15/15 Points: Massive DPS Increase

  • Cooldown Reduction Unstable Currents Shorter CD = More Burst Cycles
  • Damage Bonus Unstable Currents More Damage
  • Boundless Unstable Currents Reduces it's own cooldown and gives an absolutely astonishing multiplier to shock damage. We can average ~100 crackling energy per activation, this means it gives us ~+1000%[x] damage multiplier to our shock skills. Busted.

Paragon Board

NOTE: This Priority list is assuming all glyphs are already level 25 for their secondary effect. Therefore the focus is on the bonus of the first effect increasing as you level up the glyph.

1. Elementalist is the best and most powerful glyph for us as it increases the additive damage from the rare nodes by such a large amount, which become a separate additive conditional multiplier for our damage.

2. Control Due to Reverse Polarity Lightning Spear and Frozen Orb, everything will be Immobilized for the +20%[x] damage multiplier. The Additive damage to crowd controlled targets will become a separate additive conditional multiplier for our damage.

3. Exploit is a standard damage multiplier effecting all of our damage. Because we are wearing Flickerstep and not regular boots with Aspect of Shredding Blades. We need a way to make everything vulnerable, and the where the Frozen Orb Enchantment comes in. From here, everything will be made vulnerable and apply Vulnerable's standard 20%[x] multiplier and as well as the multipliers from Exploit.

Adept Increasing the size of blizzard is the big payoff here. Being able to hit many more things which a much large blizzard allows us to screen wipe things especially as they start chasing targets with Seek and Duration Bonus Blizzard. The additive damage from the intelligence nodes will become a separate additive conditional multiplier for our damage.

Charged Easy 15%[x] and +10%[x] multipliers for decent damage. The additive damage given by node does nothing for us.

Mercenary

Subo: Map hacks are over powered. Also boost DoT damage and Static Field Blizzard is a DoT

Aldkin: Gives damage reduction, we are sorcs and therefore we are squishy. Any amount helps.

How it Plays

Static Field Blizzard is Scaling to the actual moon at the moment. It has been bypassing 10,000% Weapon's Damage over a 1.5 second period on it's own with no other buffs. This amount of base damage makes it by far the strongest scaling ability Sorcs have to offer at this time.

Important Note: Static Field Blizzard is a DoT Ability! Do not stack critical hit chance or wear anything that empowers critical strike damage as Static Field Blizzard will not be modified by either.

Unstable Currents in Tandem with Aspect of Armageddon and Boundless Unstable Currents are interacting in such a way that is multiplying our Static Field Blizzard by a factor of 50x or more damage. Our goal is therefore to maintain Unstable Currents.

Skill Rotation

  1. Cast Unstable Currents
  2. Cast Hydra Every ~4 seconds into a pack to gain stacks of BerĂº of the Threefold or get cdr for Boundless Unstable Currents
  3. Cast Static Field Blizzard and the build will play itself from there
  4. Cast Enchant Teleport on cooldown through enemies to proc Flickerstep and reduce Unstable Currents cooldown
  5. About 2 seconds before Unstable Currents ends, repeat back to step 1
  • Cast Ice Armor when you are in danger
  • Cast Flame Shield when you are in danger

Mobility Tech (Only of NOT RUNNING OVERPOWER TELEPORT TECH)

Wormhole Teleport Has some cool tricks

  1. Combo 1 - Teleport > Enchant Teleport
    1. This allows you to reset the cooldown on teleport completely. It won't go on cooldown and therefore with proper timing, you can teleport every 2.5 seconds.
  2. Combo 2 - Teleport > Enchant Teleport > Teleport > Teleport
    1. You can pull off a very fast quadruple teleport with no cooldown in gear or skills.

Advanced Mechanics - Attack Speed Breakpoints

NOTE: Boundless Unstable Currents kind of throws all of this Hoobla into the trashcan because it allows you to pick up crackling energy beyond the cap. Therefore expenditure rate doesn't matter. Which sort of makes this entire section bleh. Just aim for 94.4% attack speed, make it simple. Updates to this (as attack speed is important coming shortly).

Now why would attack speed be something so important in this build when we could just have another Damage Multiplier?

Well this is because having more attack speed replacing something that deals more damage doesn't mean we are doing less damage over time. It means we are doing less damage per hit, but more hits in the SAME TIME PERIOD.


Basic Concept of Slow/Big Damage vs. Fast/Small Damage

For Example: Assume 2 situations

Situation 1: 100 damage / 1 hit per second = 100 x 1 = 100 Damage per Second

Situation 2: 50 Damage / 2 hits per second = 50 x 2 = 100 Damage per Second

^ Even though in one instance we are dealing only 50% of the damage, we are still dealing the same damage over time due to attacking faster.


Application for Build

In the case for our build, the reason why it is so important to attack faster is based off how much crackling energy we can collect and expend.

Crackling Energy does not have a limit to How Fast You Can Pick It Up. But it does have a limit to how fast you can create it and expend it.

  • CREATION - If you can only create 10 Crackling energy in 10 seconds, then that's all you can expend within that 10 second period
  • EXPENDITURE - If there is 100 Crackling Energy on the ground, but you can only hold a maximum of 10 crackling energy; then you can only pick up more based on how fast you expend the crackling energy. In this situation, if you can only expend 1 crackling energy per second, then in a 10 second period you can only expend 10 crackling energy

So how does attack speed solve both the problems for CREATION and EXPENDITURE?

  1. Attacking Faster with Boundless Unstable Currents will create more crackling energy through Lucky Hit Chance, but it will also create more crackling energy by casting Crackling Energy Ball Lightning and Critical Strike Chance Chain Lightning randomly as you keep casting Static Field Blizzard. Therefore by attacking faster, we generate much more crackling energy. This helps with solving the CREATION problem.
  2. To solve the EXPENDITURE problem, Esadora's Overflowing Cameo increases the rate by which we discharge crackling energy which directly scales with our Attack Speed. This means the more attack speed we have, the faster we can expend the crackling energy, which then allows us to pick up more crackling energy per second because we are not consistently capped at maximum crackling energy charges.

What happens when we solve the Problems for CREATION and EXPENDITURE.

  1. Because energy charges are being expended faster and hitting targets more frequently, we now lower the cooldown of Unstable Currents through the use of Esadora's Overflowing Cameo. This is powerful as Boundless Unstable Currents and Aspect of Armageddon synergize to give an enormous damage multiplier.
  2. Because we are rarely capped at the crackling energy limit due to the tick rate of crackling energy being effected by increases in Attack Speed in tandem with Esadora's Overflowing Cameo, we now pick up much more crackling energy per second. Every time we do this, we increase our damage due to Boundless Unstable Currents.

How Much Attack Speed Do I Need?

That is completely up to you, but my recommendation is to try to aim for at least 94.4% Attack Speed. This will allow you to attack 2.4 times a second and drastically increase your crackling energy CREATION and EXPENDITURE rate.

Sources of Attack Speed:

  1. Gear
  2. Paragon Enchantment Master Board
  3. Accelerating Aspect
  4. Ferocity Stacks - Accomplished Through Ferocity Teleport
  5. Mercenary Varyana Bloodthirst ability
