Lost Ark Sorceress Build – Best Skills for PvE and PvP

A Sorceress’ Build in Lost Ark and skill set is mainly composed of spells that harness the power of the elements. Within the current available mage classes, they are the ones who excel in dealing damage in a large area as well as in crowd-controlling mobs.

The Lost Ark Sorceress skills are usually mostly offensive ones that sweep enemies from the arena, but there are also spells that offer utility such as ones that provide a defensive barrier and ones that debuff enemies. Unless you spend premium currency to unlock the other loadouts, you will have to make the most out of the ones that you have and make sure that you invest your skill points on the skills that matter.

In this guide, we’ll look into the possible Sorceress builds that you can try depending on your type of gameplay. We will mainly focus on the skills build with max level 60 and assuming all quests that provide extra skill points are completed (380-414 skill points). With the latest updates and the raised level caps, certain skills can be leveled up to 11 and 12, but we will look into those on a separate guide.

PvE Sorceress Build – Lost Ark

For the Lost Ark PvE Sorceress Build, the skills are built with the objective of dealing the most amount of damage to as many enemies on the screen as possible. The skills are also modified to keep the enemies at bay to make sure that your squishy sorceress will be out of harm’s way.

Tips for Sorceress PvE:

• Lightning Vortex has been modified so that it can be casted with a lower MP requirement since its main use is to pull enemies in a tighter spot. Open with this spell if there are tons of scattered enemies in the field to make the most of your damaging spells.
• This build is leaning on Critical Damage which will work well if your Sorceress’ Crit stat is substantially high. If that is not the case, the critical damage skill effects can be switched to the standard damage increase ones.
• Plan ahead with some of the skills such as the Esoteric Explosion. Use this skill to create a buffer between you and the mobs if it gets too busy.

PvP Sorceress Build – Lost Ark

For the Lost Ark PvP Sorceress Build, more skills that provide utility and defense are switched into the list. Due to the sorceress’ low mobility, some skills are modified to debuff enemies while some are modified to have either faster casting time or to have a more direct attack pattern.

Tips for Sorceress PvP

• Go for a Domination/Expertise build for the combat stats to maximize the debuff time and bonus damage to impaired enemies.
• Use Ice Shower, Rime Arrow, or Lightning Vortex to create openings where you can cast your offensive spells.
• Casting Elegian’s Touch will be more useful if you position within your enemy’s close or mid-range to make use of the possible debuff and the explosion from the barrier.

Mixed PvEvP Sorceress Build – Lost Ark

The Mixed PvEvP Sorceress Build is the PvP build that is slightly modified to include more offensive skills to the loadout. It maintains a moderate amount of defense, while still being viable to use for just mowing down mobs in the field or in dungeons.
