I got baited by Kripparian into being a Firewall Sorc and while he is obviously able to pull it off, I have to admit that I am totally trash at it.
So if you are struggling like me, do yourself a favor and play Ice Shards Sorc. It’s so much easier and just as strong.
I don’t know who Kripparian is, but I just looked at the leveling guides at maxroll.gg and the Firewall build looked the most fun, and I am indeed enjoying it. What did you not like about it?
It’s extremely slow if played poorly due to how damage over time works in Diablo 4. Mobs were constantly running out of my Firewall, I made lots of snapshotting mistakes, etc.
As an Ice Shards Sorc I just teleport into a group of enemies, pop my frost nova, cast barrier and ice shards and everything is dead in a second.
Ah I get it. Yeah you need Hydra and Inferno together with the firewalls to kill quickly. Glad you found a build that works for you.
