What is the best Sorcerer build in AION 2?
Sorcerer is the spellbook caster, mixing fire burst with ice control. Max Element Enhancement first; it boosts both elements. Your damage comes from Hellfire, Firestorm and Blaze, and Flame Arrow is both your basic attack and your MP engine. On Global, MP and cooldowns are tight early, so specialties that save MP come before raw damage. Compare with the Ranger build or browse the AION 2 tier list.
