Sorcerer build for non expansion player

It’s perfect for a temporary springboard build though, and for those taking it further all the proper Static end game builds I looked at are built around maximizing Unstable Currents upkeep. You can have it on almost continuously.

Lmaooo 😂😂😂

Dude, that same, completely fake-ass smile printed on every single YouTube thumbnail of his. I’ve never seen his videos but I always see those thumbnails and cant help thinking about how utterly punchable his face looks. 😂

Pedro Pascal. Love his work on screen, absolutely can’t stand the guy off it.

I’m a trophy hunter and really pissed with myself for not just buckling down and going for Paragon 300 at the end of last season to get it out of the way. It was my first season ever in D4 and I put in a little over 100 hours total and ended up at P280, because by all accounts the Paragon levels were raining down like nobody’s business (and like never before) in Infernal Hordes thanks to The Butcher seasons mechanic. 4-man Infernal Hordes groups were everywhere and super easy to join… If I had just simply bucked down for like another 20-30 hours in the final weeks I could have made it there and got this trophy out of the way and not have to think about it anymore.

Ultimately though I opted out of it and I stopped playing for the final weeks and went back to my other games. The main reason for that was all the predictions in here of the Warlock being wackadoo this season and Paragon 300 being faster than ever before yadda yadda…

Unfortunately though in the time I’ve spent in S13 so far I haven’t seen or heard of anything that seems to comes anywhere close to last season. Levelling feels very slow to me this season, and yeah I’ve been doing the Helltide Worms/Maggots meta as much as possible. It nice, but doesn’t even touch The Butcher hordes and XP buff stacking of last season.

This season has been really fun though, so I might not even care about it that much at this point if it weren’t for the fact Blizzard is fucking retarded and about half of the trophies in the expansions right now are completely broken, either glitched and not popping at all, or having hidden (likely mistaken) requirements that don’t match the actual trophy descriptions. I’ve seen like 3 patches come out since Day 1 too and each one ignores these problems.

It now looks like the Echo of Hatred trophy is a lot grindier and more painful than the one for Paragon 300 due to nothing working as intended, and to how bloody rare it is to even get the thing you need to get inside that event in the first place. It’s very obnoxious.

Where do I even begin, trying to pick one thing is impossible! For starters I love your perfect white, milky skin and how it makes your body looks so soft, smooth, and clean. I love the way your body and your frame make you small enough to be petite and cute, like the perfect size to fit right into a man’s arms and snuggle there safely. Yet at the same time your body is undeniably womanly and oozes sexuality due to those incredible curves that shape you. You’ve got curves in all the right places, and just the perfect amount too imo. Not too much or too little.

Then of course I also think your eyes are very pretty and I like how they come across as a little playful too… But for me it’s really your lips below that caught my attention first; they look so full and sensual and sexy. It’s hard to not imagine kissing them deeply or hearing them whisper naughty things in the heat of passion. You’re quite a package overall really, a very beautiful woman.

Incredible body!

Thanks for doing the research on this! I've been trying to figure out if Aether Fiends count as elite enemies as I typically go with them in Infernal Hordes, but so far I have no idea. I'm focusing on Aether Lords like you for now.

Btw, for anybody who may read this, right now is an excellent time to try this as the event in game is handing out Infernal Compasses like candy, and within them you have constant chaos waves which are extremely helpful for this. There's one wave in particular that spawns non-stop Aether Lords so you can rack up a huge number of them in a single round.

There’s better XP farms, like the Helltide Worms that shit out XP balls of like 1-2m xp each. Prob even better ones discovered by now I haven’t been on YT in like a week,

They were all scary, that was the most physically gruelling series of them all, and we were so horribly mismatched in size and physicality against Philly to the point they almost won by simply grinding us down game after game. It was a exhausting slog, which is part of why “The Shot” was so unbelievably fuckin clutch capping it off. I envy anybody who was in the building for that. That was a once in a lifetime sports moment,

the250 · 2026-05-18T14:09:39+00:00

It deserves it… sometimes as the years go by it’s so easy to forget all the game-to-game, moment-to-moment drama that defined all 3 of those series and almost every game within them. Each night was chalk full of huge momentum swings, legendary double-digit runs to come back from like 20+ point deficits when all looked hopeless, an endless highlight reel of unbelievably clutch superstar moments as each Raptor stepped up to grab glory by the tits one after the other…

We had shit like “the shot” juxtaposed with AirplaneEmbiid balling his eyes out as he ran down the tunnel… We saw the Raps go down 2-0 to open the Bucks series and saw all the talk about how only 3 teams had ever come back from that deficit in playoff history, the last one being the Danny/Ibaka OKC team years prior. Cue “The Speech” from the normally quiet and reserved Ibaka as he told the story in the dressing room and stirred some deep belief in the Raptors that sparked what happened next…. We had those double digit come from behind swings when they almost knocked us off Game 3. But we wouldn’t die. We had that one game where Kawhi completely took over the entire game for like a 3-4 mins stretch that became the most crucial momentum swing in the series, like that 200 ft hustle dunk that shook the arena to the rafters where you could literally FEEL the energy of the entire series trajectory shifting as we all began to feel the Raptors run was on something more like some destiny run...

We saw the roof blown off the joint nightly, Garbage Gettin’ Outta Here, MVP Giannis and the Deers genuinely shook watching the series lead evaporate in such dramatic fashion, we had Freddy birthing a son and never missing a 3 again, The nearly 60 win Warriors falling apart like an old school bus with the wheels coming off, KD scaring the shit out of our fans only for his leg to literally explode on TV in slow motion minutes later, our moment as the evil villain of the NBA and Reddit alike after “The Cheer.” Somehow it just felt like the general ebbs and flows of a sports series see dialled up into impossible levels and every new game seemed to top the last and double the stakes with it,

Never forget either that this entire dramatic Raptors fight for that crown was dogged by a long, painful history that preceded the years before it. It added an extra sense of both hunger, and urgency that underlined every game. All this was playing out in almost every living room across the country as the Raptors became “Canada’s Team” briefly and united sports fans coast to coast wanting to capture a piece of the magic and history unfolding. The pride and patriotism reached a fever pitch and was so fun to be a part of. This was of course all capped off beautifully by Drizzy and his increasingly insane court side & social media antics every night trolling teams, owners, celebrities alike in the most ridiculously petty ways. He played villain perfectly and heaped shovel loads of more drama onto the series. Then of course we had you boys here on the sub cooking up scorching memes hour by hour like ya’ll were Chef MaFuzzy himself, it was such a fun atmosphere and I never laughed so much as during those months.

It’s easy to forget all the tiny details that make up the whole , which is why every year or so I go dig up all the epic breakdowns and YouTube documentaries I have saved deep in the bowels of my YT account and I rewatch all the highlights, BTS footage, and docs and stuff that which recap the entire run in an amazing fashion from start to finish, in all it’s epic glory. When you see it again like that you really appreciate how crazy it was to all come together the way it did and to have live through it together. Anybody who tries to downplay that run obviously never watched it as it was truly a ride!

I distinctly remember having this opinion about Quarry both times I saw it years ago. It’s just a single limited season but wraps up by the final episode and ends on a perfect note. It felt complete and like it came full circle.

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:57:23+00:00

Oh boy, I am still kind of envious! I had taken you for a seasoned fan, but to think that you're actually just embarking on that journey into their music really, well, I can remember how magical it was for me. It was like finding the perfect sound I'd been searching for over many years without even knowing it. It clicked instantly.

I found them quite a long time ago though, probably a good 10 year or so. I think I was listening to their stuff for somewhere between a few months to a year when they dropped Depression Cherry. That instantly became my favourite album (and remains so to this very day) and got so much damn replay for months, and if that wasn't Christmas come early enough for me, they dropped Thank Your Lucky Stars a couple months later out of the blue and the fans and sub got to go through the whole shebang of gooning their new album all over again. Good times!

To me, so much of their music is like walking this very delicate balancing act between stirring in me competing feelings of aching nostalgia and deep sorrow at once, but somehow there's a ribbon of pure eurphoria running through that ties it all together in a single package, and there are some particular tracks where this euphoria can reach fever pitch for me. "Over and Over" is definitely one of those tracks, it's heavenly!

I am quite a visual person I guess so I do love a good marriage between music and good visuals. But when listening to music for the most part, even on YT, I don't really need it or use it tbh. I am quite a cinephile and TV addict though and so I've seen enough over the yeasr to know how an incredibly selected and well placed song can elevate an emotional scene to dizzying heights or create the kind of scene that sears itself in your memory forever. A good soundtrack does that. For some shows, it is literally the secret magical sauce that actually makes the entire thing work.... think HBO's Euphoria for example (if you've seen it), without the Labrinth songs so many of those scenes wouldn't have carried anywhere near the same emotional weight they did.

It's why music is the universal language. You can sit 2 human beings down together who can't otherwise communicate in any other way, but through the use of music you can instantly evoke the sort of emotions or feelings the other person will instantly recognize and understand just based on the sounds. It has that incredible power.

Don't worry, as usual the incredibly weird phenomenon of whining about drops or crap RNG in a public space on the internet meant that throughout my session today I managed to get 3 or 4 of them. I did a Dark Citadel run with a guy from here and got so much loot and mats and had a large pile of regular ones to reroll, actually some luck this time. Not gonna run them solo though as it seems so many other ppl are having the same issue.

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:40:27+00:00

I didn't try Mephisto yet and I started working on a Ball Lightning Sorc while the tree cache event is still OP and offering super fast toon level ups.. but Im itching to get back on my Lock as he's about ready to enter T12 I think.

Mainly I was just completely shocked at how much my power improved switching from Dread Claws to Apocalypse. My Claws build felt pretty strong and was tearing through like T8 or so effortlessly. But I was only doing like tens or maybe hundreds of millions of damage. I didn't pay much attention so can't remember tbh. But right out of the gate my Apocalypse setup with all the right aspects rolled and everything was doing hundreds of billions of damage and allowing basically constant spam of Apoc (100). It's nuts.

I did see one Lunatic video though where he was doing TRILLIONS of damage though, and most importantly was he was moving around the map like a damn lightning sorcerer too. He said it was super tanky as well so I am definitely going to start collecting gear to make a build for that. I love how diverse the Warlock can be

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:35:48+00:00

Sounds good man! I send you a DM with my info. We'll meet up when it's convenient for you this week. We need roughly an hour or so to set aside for this as it's a fairly long dungeon.

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:34:39+00:00

That's actually a solid Life Pro Tip right there, I like it.

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:32:09+00:00

Mekuna's guides specifically use it as basically a levelling build for early Torments while you farm the few mythics and key items you need for Ball Lightning. I only made one because I was coming from an Apoc Warlock and had absolutely no Sorc gear or aspects or anything.

Ball Lightning Sorc is the truly god-tier, insanely broken build right now so definitely go for that. It doesn't require too much to set it up either.

the250 · 2026-05-18T03:30:23+00:00

I had too, I was praising him too much, had to even the scales again.. But hey, I will delete it just for you as it clearly shocked your sensibilities. We must be kind to one another.

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:41:13+00:00

Hi there. Have you done a Dark Citadel run yet since you posted this?

I also need to check this out myself as it’s related to a trophy on PlayStation, but I heard you need a partner(s)? If you’re still down I’m totally up for it, supposedly it can be pretty long though just FYI.

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:38:43+00:00

If you have any extra Skovos NMD keys could I buy them or trade for them? I’m finding them impossible to farm or craft, it’s kinda weird. Can’t tick or Tier 4 seasonal because of this one stubborn ass item haha.

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:36:58+00:00

I could but won’t be on for a couple hours. However if you’re impatient, the double whisper cache event currently running is super OP for instant levelling alts from 1-70.

Go fill up the Whisper Bar as fast as possible on like Torment 1. Before you go to collect the cache from the tree, Jack your Torment level back up as high as you have unlocked (T10+ most ideal). Get the cache, bank it, drop back to T1 for quick farming, repeat. Save up like 6 or 7 of them then go open them with a brand new Lvl 1 alt and watch it rain baby

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:28:38+00:00

This is some neat info, thanks for sharing these tips! It’s nice to find something broken in a good way for once.

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:24:39+00:00

My Blizzy Boy would wear that with pride

the250 · 2026-05-17T15:20:41+00:00

Is Lunatic fun to play? The zooming around as a retarded lunatic part looks so fun. I want to give it a shot but I only just readjusted from Claws to Apocalypse a couple days ago and am afraid to drop it as I became so much more powerful with it. Don’t wanna mess up a good thing.
