Nuking 101

[LuigiKat11]

Shocking Grasp?

[burstengravity]

my 20 sorc never took spell focuses ur a nuker u just nukem wizards are the classes that gets more dc on their spells

[VarisEcthelion]

@burstengravity the focus is just for the early levels. At 20th you can make use of spell focus: evocation again since epic stuff has a massive save and a half damage nuke = crappy nuke. So pump that DC to 40 =)

[minunsattack]

whats this Q and D stuff i do it and it does nothing and I looked at my keysettings q isswitch targets e is interact with targets...

[highrule995]

is that the more Dots guy?

[banjo174]

I think what you did is a matter of opinion. i am currently working on a lvl 10 warforged sorcerer. 25 charisma 23 con 8 dex you dont really need dex and you dont need spell focus. spell focus is for later lvls i think. and when i was 1-5 lvl sorcerer i just had empower with the empower enhancements and spammed burning hands. it worked out great. then when i got to lvl 6 i used a combo of fire ball and the wand fire ball. it saved mana and that worked great also. i didnt take any spell focus

[VBProgrammerFreak]

We'll just skip ahead to, oh, level 20 should do the trick! Lol

•¥£€•

[ShutUpWhoAskedU]

I think it's actually more common to take burning hands or acid spray instead of shocking grasp, so no, you don't need those spells.

[Cyclopsfire6]

do you need to have those lvl 1 spells please respond ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cyclopsfire6]

do you need to have those spells at level one?

pleaseeeeeeeeeee respond asap!!!!!!!!!!!

[nuclearstube]

[UnknownGamerX]

dude pro

[UnknownGamerX]

didnt know snow swarm is soo useful

[Prodigy492]

what about WF?

[Mavisbeecon]

Yeah niacs is really pretty but it loses its shine when it gets resisted half the time you cast it...ill just burning hands them at the start and before you know it you get good spells like, fireball.

[cut84li4e]

Make more please, this was epicly helpfull! :D

[iLaffAtChoo]

Hey, when u open up DDO, do u have to redownload it?

Or do u have the icon? Plz reply

[thebowman2]

@iLaffAtChoo just look in you program files there will be a map named turbine from there you can create a deskop icon

[beastlysarge]

Lol seeing your charachter do 1000 damage makes me laugh cause my 13 monk only hits straight 20 (but god he hits fast)

[TheHazShow]

More videos!!

[kamykerDDOpl]

LOL?? Spell Focus: Conjuration ??? u kidding? better is Evocation

[VarisEcthelion]

@kamykerDDOpl niacs and acid blast are both conjuration spells. In order for you to hit stuff early on, do conjuration focus.

Past 8th level, respec out of conjuration focus and pick something else but until then you will LOVE niacs.

[MrTubeandWatch]

@VarisEcthelion Niac's is a luck spell, all or nothing--I don't like relying on luck. Scorching ray and magic missile every time.

[Prodigy492]

@VarisEcthelion don't forget niac's brother scorching ray :)

[calstretch]

I found this guide to be very helpful. I played a sorcerer the first time around, and didn't have a very good time. This video has inspired me to give it another go. Thanks for sharing it!

[VBProgrammerFreak]

Thanks. 5\5

[arnity123]

Really helpful video!!! Thanks

[hansikui]

i dont like your sorc :D

[sb12491]

The only reason why i like sorcerer's better is because they get more spell points

[CaliSurferzz]

I use right mouse as select target

[TheMediocreForce]

what's the fastest way to select your target with auto-target off? Do you use the 'select next target' button? or do you just click on them?

[VarisEcthelion]

@TheMediocreForce

I click on things I HAVE to target (casters), whenever possible though I try to nuke without targeting. (fireball, burning hands, cone of cold, etc)

[UllisMetzger]

Nice! Maybe i'll give the Sorc a try :)

[SKILLErElvurn]

I can't do the run in circles technique (holding q + d or a + e) it just doesn't move me round anyhelp plss

Reply?

[TheMediocreForce]

what i do is set my spell hotkeys to q, e, r, and f, so i can cast while moving with w, a, s, and d. I toggle mouslook on, so i just us a and d whild changing where i'm looking with the mouse. This is alternative to what he says in the video. =)

[doritos569]

@SKILLErElvurn Q and E dont move your character. you just have to run around using aswd and try to make you run in a circle

[Irishborne]

so with this sorc, is this customization?

[VarisEcthelion]

Yep, you can find details on the DDO sorcerer forums under the "nuking 101" thread.

[meyer12311]

yes it is

[CiJesus1]

currently at lvl 7 on my sorc, trying so hard to get to 8 so i can get Wall of Fire

[Patt089]

This makes me want to give sorc a try, im currently playing as a wizard

[Justin13L]

I feel like everyone goes wizard because they can get more spells...im a sorcerer.

[Patt089]

@Justin13L

in the long run wizards are more versatile and can adjust to the dungeons they face and therefore are better at solo, they are also better for beginners that doesnt know the spells that great, sorc's are the nukers of the game but in the end what comes more in handy is mostly melee classes, i know this because im playing a wizard, you should give wizard a try before making a sorc, check the DDO forum for more info, they both have their ups and downs but i find that wiz have more ups.

[bogart99]

Always Kill The Caster First is the one rule everone should rember and obay no matter what class or dungeon

[CaliSurferzz]

Great video thanks for the info.  I really needed this :D
