10:22 - The Summary
The Nova Sorc is one of if not the best endgame build for the Sorceress in Season 3, Patch 2.6. With the breakpoint of 105 FCR at a minimum this class can easily handle any content in the game with any of these builds without exception.
While some of these builds for the class suffer from low Magic Find percentages, what it loses in unique item drops it more than makes up for with its clear speed. Finding bases for Runewords, Runes, Rush speed, and overall mobility the Nova Sorc stands resolute.
One of the major drawbacks of this class is the Blood Mana Curse which will devour your HP if applied, so you will want to ensure that you have a way to remove that, which is where the new Helmet Runeword "Cure" comes into play. Use the new tech from Patch seasons to ease your gameplay experience.

GFD-
i have a small confusion regarding lightning immunity and conviction and the need for a sunder charm.
i was always under the impression that conviction was the answer to lightning immunity - so if you are wearing the infinity, mons are already sundered, no?
Thanks, Cade, I appreciated the light-heartedness towards the end there! Interesting builds! I just need to scrape up the runes and base items!
Sundering Grand charms ensure that nothing else is lightning immune for a very cheap investment. With this your conviction will also make them take an additional 17% increase damage through Infinity in addition, the negative enemy light resistance also applies extra damage for you
Nice build! But one thing to note, the Cure, Insight, Prayer combo doesn't regen your mana, only the Insight does that. What it does is regen your life. Cheers!
Thanks a lot for the video! I love the addition of Cure helmet & CoH on the mercenary! Tried it on my own nova sorc and I love the tankiness it provides!
This is by far my favorite build I have played. I ran it last season on HC. So damn fun!
Well done Cade. Very consise and precise. As usual, clean work!
Thank you for your help on the stream. The guide is here is verry usefull too
This channel is very helpful and informative. Definitely would recommend. Great video! I always liked having a ES/CA Cta to save some points. PBP YUGE!
Started straight up nova and not blizzard this season, went up to farm "key locations"
Great video. Just made the self-wielding build and love it.
I am currently building a nova sorc. I am returning to this game I've played when I was a teenager.
I first tried a zeal paladin, then a frenzy barb and I was kinda bored with the lack of area of effect.
Now I'm quite happy with my nova sorc 44 but kinda scared for the lightning immune coming on.
I hope I'll be able to someday achieve a character such as yours here.
Great guide brother, keep up the good work
I've really been enjoying being able to swap my treks for something else since my merc can use cure and COH now. I was using travelers but I was fortunate enough to find some boots with good light rez and MF. This helps not getting ganked by gloams. I still try to get my poison resistance to 10/20 since I'm energy build to keep my health from getting too low for my comfort
Nice video
Im running crescent moon sword set up and i rly wonder if the self wield infinity worth the spend of the 2 bers.
Mostly playing solo on btnet and rly find my deeps to be enought for dia and baal runs,even terorised
amazing build guide!
Fantastic video sir
what is that cinematic starting at 0:20 ?
Great video.
Does it make sense to make infinity in a mancatcher so i can use the infinity on a merc also?
"really quick ..... if you're looking for something that kills itself.. this is the class for you" haha subbed
Sometimes you just have to show it =P
You can do ormus eschutas 20 fcr amulet etc for a 200 for light sorc but you need top end gear for it to work.
Didn't know you did RUclips videos as well as Twitch Streams! Now I can give you some support here too!
Hello ! Greetings from Brazil here. This sorc for PvP i can put Max nova, static field, thunderstom, lighting mastery and energy Shield ? And minimun telekinesis ??? I Saw a infinity sorc using Full damage thunderstom and.killing everybody
How did you get a hotbar with mouse and keyboard
You can also take damage from the blood mana curse from succubus. Does damage to you based on how much mana you spend. Kinda makes teleporting around areas like the worldstone keep a pain... but still an amazing build overall
The cleansing aura from cure can help with that. Also if you burn through all your hp, the curse will wear off and you can quickly regenerate it back.
I want to like the video but we are at the gentleman’s number. Great content as always!
10:19 this has been my experience so far OMEGALUL
Amulet is not possible. Mana craft amus will have (max) 10fcr 20mana 10mana reg. Then you can add 4 affixes more (presumibaly 2sk, extra 10fcr, 20@ and str/life/mana/res...). But your combination is not posible. Besides, wearing Viper you do not need 20fcr from amu, you're good with 10. Btw, you can enhance the handweild infy build by adding some nice mana boots and a war staff Cta with 3tstorm 3coldarmor 3energyshield (spares skill points for ES or Warmth). Warmth IS important. Against strong foes the peak in mana reg that Warmth gives can make the difference. And resiatances are not THAT important (because of ES) but STILL important (and not just poison, paradox here is that with cure and x3Prayer you do not rely that heavily in poison res anymore).
There is another posible build. Which is basically switching Viper for Ormus. Increases dmg output nearly a 10% (and looses def and resistances). In this case, it does indeed require a 20fcr amu because ormus has 20fcr not 30. It's my favourite one.
Cheers
As a hardcore player, I always found the lightning sorcs to have the problem of dying too much.
Especially nove where it makes you get right in the middle of enemy mobs...
If you have infinity and sunder charm, a far safer build is blizz or hydra. More interesting too tactically.
Gotta say though a nova sorc is gdly for farming nightmare fast especailly if she's 90 plus
How do you do ubers? You said you will showcase...
Love my nova sorc. Level 95.2 right now. Starting to go very slow lmao.
I nearly coughed up my lung when I saw that amulet. Sweet lord, that is a seriously godly piece.
its all offline, nothing was actually found - just used to make the vid =)
@@barricadettv your so evil!
And some say "money can't buy you happiness". Well that amulet is a prime reason why those people are sad sacks of sh..t.
I’m still relearning this and seeing a lot I never knew. That chest armor is a lot higher than I ever seen. But you said you “up” the armor. What does that mean?
Can I play it without Infinity?
Why not use that with merc and run a eschutas?
How important is the crack of heavens? Does it do additional -light res on top of the lvl 12 conviction?
Hey! I would say, mandatory.
Sup dude, is there a way to reduce graphic effects such as lightning? I think I saw something like that in your game and I've been thinking about it, but couldn't find it. Please let me know if you know hehe and have a good one!
Hey man, only thing you can try is dynamic resolution - the skills will look how they look. Unless you want to try legacy mode =P
Hey, Shouldn't you max Warmth instead of dumping points into telekinesis?
Are resistances (except for poison) pretty much pointless when using Energy Shield?
Yes they are.
Amazing person.
amazing Content
amzing community to be a part of.

I'm curious, could you (or someone seeing this) explain how the Cure runeword benefits us? When reading about the Cleansing aura, it says that it "Reduces Poison and Curse duration for all party members." and nothing else. In what way does it stack with Prayer and Medidation aura for mana purposes? Thanks
As per the Aura itself (Not listed on the skill):
Bonuses To Cleansing - Prayer: same as having Prayer active without mana cost.
@@barricadettv Aha. So does that mean that the merc's passive prayer aura drains our own characters mana if we need to be healed?
@@ronnytorkovic no it's like having three prayer auras going at the same time
does this build work as build 2 variant (crescent moon and griffon) without infinity on merc?
Sure does, so long as you have a crack of the heavens you will be okay!
I just tried it, works awesome.
Yep
My current setup is:
Griffons//Vipermagi//Arach//Sandstorms//Crescent Moon//Spirit shield//Frostburn//2 Sojs//Tal amy
I like the clear speed and the survivability
that amulet? holy cow!
lmao bru the head sparkle got an instant like hahahah
Can I make a suggestion towards gearing? It might be *shocking* but hear me out. Manald Heal.
Not much to a nova sorc. -60 lightning peirce is good enough, with or without infinity. My favorite budget setup uses cmoon/facet lidless, but there's vita and even vita/mb setups that are just as p8 viable (even more-so in certain areas than ES). The best overall DPS setup will utilize 6 nova wand with 2 facets and 20/-20 monarch of simplicity. Infinity wielding is as cookie-cutter as it gets; I have a few random videos posted on my channel. The most important skill for any nova setup is Static, which seems underused.
“If you are looking for something quick that kills itself this is the class for you.” 😂😂😂😂 best line ever.
Have a budget version? 40 ES sounds VERY high and infinity speaks for itself how expensive it is. Than another ber for CoH
Memory runeword is +9 to skills, so that's good! Crescent Moon isn't bad and neither is spirit. I hope this helps!
How do you died so fast at 10:10 ? I thought with 3K mana and 1K health you would survive souls shooting at you. Does it really not matter to have res when using energy shield?
Check out 2:10 Poison is the killer
@@Psynister_PBP What are you talking about? At 10:10 there are only 2 monster types and 2 monster dmg types: physical and lightning
Where did you spend your skill points for the first build?
maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/1s0206a5
@@barricadettv Ty :)
I think treks are useless because only Worldstone Keep skeleton mages do enough poison damage to stop and go back to town. You can tank every other poison type otherwise. Due to this fact, war travelers are the superior choice for boots because it has relevant stats like MF.
Had to hit the first Like on the video! pbp!
didnt go over the skill allocation
Can somone explain how cure helps regen mana pool ?
It doesn't
i don't think you showed the rings
Playing solo with this build on P7. Lazy yet superfun.
Why do we need the sunder when we have infinity?
sunder sets light res to 95, infinity lowers light res even further, increasing damage greatly. without sunder you can not drop down enemy light res as much
@@serenitynow3818 And Sunder vs non-Immunes does nothing, while Infinity will still do -82%. Against immunes, Sunder alone sets res to 95, then Infinity hits it with another -17%. They work really well together.
you forget the full tal rasha set version ;)
Handheld viable for hardcore ?
absolutely just be sure you've got Poison res capped and your ES is 40. Then you're golden.
What's your favorite version?
Probably the handheld w/ all 3 synergies on the merc. Just feels strong and does great dmg.
2 Bers and 45-55% odds for infinity is a big gamble
@@xijinpig7978 totally is! Which is why you can use the crescent moon variant and get going with no infinity, sure you're less powerful - but that can change once you get going.
40 to life skillers of 6, perfect griffon and vipermagi with perfect light facets, perfect anni and torch, seems we can get this nice build with only 300 bers of wealth. Easily done
Or, do what I did, and just make an offline character :P
how did you die so fast at 10:19
WorldStone Keep Gloams deal damage and reduce mana, so they are a terrible opponent to encounter. Just bad luck.
Es blizzard, hydra, firewall or meteor is better
You may enjoy it more, everyone has their favorite, with regards to the Sorc class. I prefer lightning skills and nova, but those others mentioned there are also great!
Broooo let me buy that sorc ammy
If you're looking for a fast build that kills itself, I died of laughter then.
iSorcOnly
Sorry hammerdin is still the only build worth using. Sorc is b their at best no matter the build. Din is ss goated tier
After 2 full seasons I can tell you HDIN is the move, but it's nice to try new things. Real Steel Paladin deal is very slick.
You never showed your nova damage, you always had energy shield on with menu open.
Great build when you have 5k FG :), otherwise you can't dream to make a sorc like this.
Hey! Not sure where you get that, crescent moon and spirit w/ Crack of the Heavens isn't anywhere near what you've stated. Everything is obtainable, you just need to play the game and acquire it. Hope this inspires you. Also, you can make an offline hero and play for 0 cost / time investment.
@@barricadettv CM&CotH is nowhere near infinity build, and no fun at all. Offline play is not interesting IMO. But for good gear 5k fg is a minimum to be able to farm all in lighting speed.
U died just like that from souls with 90% dmg absorb?? I dont understand how does energy shild works.. but it doesnt look good lol
@@ueng928 resistances dont matter when taking damage to mana
If cooley sees that ammy hes gonna start squirting
“budget” xD
that level 34 amulet is fake tho
WTF is that crafted neck roll.
an offline hero edited character. =)
Wtf is that amulet
Dat shiny forehead )
A very affortable build with all the BIS LMAO, can you provide a Nova build with solo self found stuff and not equipment bought online.
Hey Martin!
You can use the offline hero editor to try this class offline with any gear you like, which I did for this video - or you can check out this link for more gearing options:
