I started ball lightning because I enjoyed it last seasons, but maybe I should start working on something else. Everyone seems to play Frozen Orb, but I read it lacks on boss damage as well?

If you mean bosses anything will work. If you mean pit, blizzard or frozen orb, because blizzard defined end game as infinite hp and damage scaling.

Thanks. Is Blizzard really that good?
It feels like 90% of sorcerer population decided to go Frozen Orb lol

Orb is kinda the ultimate speed run build. Which makes it super fun for easier content where you don’t even see most of the mobs since your orb+conjurations clear stuff multiple screens away. But orb is atrocious against bosses which is the biggest issue as you start to climb pit tiers.

Is there any sorc build that does well in higher pit tiers though?
Orb is lacking, damage of ball lightning somewhat is also, but maybe it’s just the gear?

I think fire bolt is the build most likely to push higher tier pits. I see almost nobody running it because it’s kinda janky.

Blizz is probably the next best bet after that.

I'm doing blizzard but haven't worked through pits nor have highly upgraded gear. pit 30 = 3 minutes pit 55 was about 5. I'm struggling on bosses since the build works around freezing monsters.

Ah, I thought blizzard was the best boss killer.
I’m on pit 50 but I do die sometimes, also on bosses. I was still using tibaults though. Switched it to everliving now and haven’t tried.
