The Sorcerer’s spells in Diablo 4 make use of different elements. Moreover, the class has a unique mechanic where abilities can provide passive procs. Here’s our Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment guide to help you unlock these powerful passive bonuses.
Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment mechanic unlock
The Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment slots are unlocked at levels 15 and 30. As of now, we’re not sure about the requirement for the level 30 slot given that the beta caps characters up to level 25 only.
However, the first slot at level 15 does have a class-specific quest called Sorcerer: Legacy of the Magi. Make sure you’re tracking it so that it’s marked on your map. Here’s the gist:
You’ll have to return to the southwest of Nevesk. It’s basically where you started the campaign.There, you’ll meet a Sorcerer named Mordarin, who asks you to retrieve the Forgotten Codex. The item can be found in a nearby dungeon.The dungeon itself has its own reward, though the Forgotten Codex can be looted from marked chest. Clear the dungeon if you want, but you do need to bring the book back to Mordarin.You’ll then enter a hut where you have to interact with four braziers. Mordarin will attempt to harness the elements, but he accidentally summons demons instead.After killing the demons, you’ll unlock the Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment slot for your level 15 character.Mordarin wants you to pick up a quest item. It’s found in a chest in a nearby dungeon.
Once you have a Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment slot, you can select any active spell (i.e. non-passive and non-Ultimate) that has at least one rank. This can come from a skill point allocation or, even better, any item that adds a rank. For instance, if you have a random amulet that grants +1 to Teleport, then it’s as though Teleport has been unlocked even though you didn’t use a single skill point.
In any case, go to the Abilities panel and click on Skill Assignment. The bottom section is where you can pick a spell that will have an extra effect enabled. These Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment slots offer amazing boons that are quite different from their usual effects as active skills. Most will even proc regardless of the ability you use to defeat enemies or trigger the effect.
A single rank/level for a spell counts as an unlock even if it came from an item’s rolled properties. This lets you pick a spell that you didn’t put a single skill point into.Basic Skills: Spark – +12% chance to form Crackling Energy when you kill an enemy.Fire Bolt – Additional 48 burning damage for eight seconds after dealing direct damage.Frost Bolt – +15% chilling effect from direct damage.Arc Lash – Stun enemies for 0.5 seconds after you use a cooldown (i.e., dash).Core Skills
With only one Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment slot available at level 15, we suggest equipping Fireball. Every single kill you do will cause enemies to explode, which can lead to a chain reaction of explosions due to guaranteed procs.
Using the Fireball Enchantment leads to lots of foes going kaboom.
Diablo 4 is currently in its beta stage. As such, some of the information here may change as we get closer to the game’s official launch on June 6. We’ll update this guide accordingly. For now, you may visit our class hub.
