Diablo 4: How to Build Thor Lightning in Season 1

-

In Season 1 so far. If you don't know what Thor Lightning is, it is a build that combines Chain Lightning and Ball Lightning. I will cover the keys to help you dominate the mid till endgame through the Thor Lightning or Thor Nuke. So let's find out!

Diablo 4: How to Build Thor Lightning in Season 1

First, for the Thor build, the best heart to use is the Barber Heart. Since Lightning Sorcerer has a high crit chance, it converts all damage into AOE damage with a 40+% improvement. That the Chain Lightning becomes Chain Nuke. One trick to bring the Barber to the next level is to begin the fight with Lightning Spear and Spamming Chain Lightning. And Raiment Teleport pulls all enemies into one spot, and BOOM. All monsters get deleted instantly. Use Tal'Rasha for a 36% Global Damage boost for the other two hearts. And Revenge for 20% Tankier.I did a thorough and complicated calculation for the Tempting Fate heart. And my conclusion is that it is not worthy, even in the most ideal case with the Elementalist. The damage improvement is around 20%, far from the flat 30+% boost from Tal'Rasha.

So please don't use it for now unless Blizzard updates it. If you don't have the Barber yet, use the Picana, a great AOE for further Damage, Cracking Energy, and Mana. And if you don't have any of the hearts. Don't worry; watch this guide to get the best heart and XP farming locations and tips.

Second, Gears always focus on these defensive—stats on Helm, Chest Armor, and Pants. Get plus Conjuration Mastery Passive and % Total Armor on Amulet. Aspect-wise, replace Recharging with Accelerating to get Attack Speed as conjuration benefits from Attack Speed—especially Ice Blades.

Third, for Paragon Board. Use the Destruction Glyph for the 1st board as we have a high Crit Chance. And the 1st board has enough dexterity to unlock the 12% Global Bonus damage at Glyph Level 1. Then open the Enchantment Master board and walk to the Legendary Node as soon as possible, which is extremely important for the build because all Cooldown Skills can generate 20% more Ice Blades. Where we will have, on average, 7 Conjurations at the same time.And with the plus 3 Rank Conjuration Mastery on Amulet. It is a 42% Global Damage Boost.

And even more, to Cooldown Reduction on top of the Accelerating Aspect we just saw. And more static Ball Lightning that are huge AOE sweepers. Then get the Rare Nodes for more Non-Physical Damage to improve significantly our "Damage to" bucket. And get the Elementalist Glyph since the 2nd board has enough Intelligence to unlock the 15% Global Damage Bonus. Then go up to open the Frigid Fate Board to get more Vulnerable Damage with the Tactician Glyph. And go right to the Static Surge board for more Crowd Control synergies with the Exploit Glyph to further improve Vulnerable Damage for upgrading Glyphs. First, upgrade the Destruction. Then the Exploit.Then the Tactician.And last, the Elementalist. 

Suppose you are new to the Thor Lightning build. You may find using Frost Nova more comfortable as it instantly freezes enemies. It also works with the Thor Nuke build. I made a Frost Nova variant. Move 3 points from the Ball Lightning to Frost Nova, replace Ice Blades with Frost Nova on the Skill Bar, and you are ready. It has better Group Crowd Control, so monsters get deleted while Crowd Controlled. The minor downside is that a single elite or boss will take slightly longer. Also, get Plus Frost Nova on the boots if you like this variant. Sorcerer is super fun to play in season 1, but now it feels just too powerful after using the Barber's heart. 

With the lowering Nightmare Dungeon difficulty in the recent patch, I can pass Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeon even before Level 100. I hope Blizzard balances the Barber in the upcoming 1.1.1, or it might kill the game too quickly, given that Season 1 will last for three months. What do you think? If you like the guide, please consider sharing and subscribing. Thank you for watching,g and see you next time!

For those aiming to defeat her, we offer a tank build to counter her powerful attacks, even with imperfect gear. Check out our guide to triumph over Uber Lilith! Equipment Breakdown: 1. Helmet: Opt for the "Aspect of Mending." While cooldown is often sought after, this build benefits more from maximum life. Key attributes to focus on include total armor, barrier generation, and basic skill attack speed. 2. Chest: The "Aspect of Disobedience" is your best bet. It offers genuine armor benefits.

Diablo 4: The Struggle with Leveling and Game Progression

Since the launch of Diablo 4, many players have shared feedback. One of the main discussions revolves around the game's level cap. Let's explore this debated issue further, based on thorough gameplay experience. The Case for an 80-Level Cap in Diablo 4 Diablo 4 offers players an immersive experience from levels 1-75 as they navigate through their builds and gear combinations. The joy of finding the perfect sacred or ancestral weapon and witnessing the exponential growth of their character is undeniable. However, post the 75-level mark, the game presents a significant pitfall. Between levels 75-80, there seems to be a stagnation in gameplay. The experience at level 99 feels eerily similar to that at level 80. Other than acquiring more items post-battle, there's a lack of divergence in gameplay or character development. Consequently, many players feel that removing levels 81-100 could enhance the gaming experience. As it stands, Diablo 4 feels like a 70-level game that an add
