Season context and purpose
Historical Season 7, patch family 2.1. Burning damage and pack grouping without the old permanent S4 Flame Shield engine. Archived guide capture: 2025-03-03. Optimization applies to the named activity and gearing stage; this is not a current or cross-season ranking promise.
Flameweaver splits Fire Bolts fired through Firewall. Inferno groups enemies and increases damage. This S7 version uses six active buttons; Teleport is available through its enchantment only.
Six bar slots and class system
Enchant Teleport and Ice Blades. Teleport therefore does not occupy a seventh active slot. Keep the regular Burning variant separate from the specialized Shatter push variant.
| Slot | Skill |
|---|---|
| 1 | Fire Bolt |
| 2 | Firewall |
| 3 | Inferno |
| 4 | Ice Blades |
| 5 | Ice Armor |
| 6 | Flame Shield |

Equipment, aspects and stat priorities
Prioritize Fire Bolt ranks, attack speed, Burning damage and reliable Mana when using Shard of Verathiel. Direct critical damage is not equivalent to the main Burning damage over time.
| Role | Equipment / mechanic |
|---|---|
| Required | Flameweaver; Firewall; Fire Bolt |
| Core | Shard of Verathiel; Raiment of the Infinite; Burning Instinct |
| Upgrade | Ring of Starless Skies; Harlequin Crest; Shroud of False Death |
Rotation and resources
Find targets with Evade Teleport, group with Inferno, place a useful Firewall and fire bolts through it. Maintain Ice Armor, cast Ice Blades regularly and reserve Flame Shield for danger. Avoid unnecessarily stacking Firewalls.
Season mechanic and targeted choices
Witchcraft: six powers, at most one unique power, and three Occult Gems in jewelry. Check power tags, aura and gem conditions together. Runes and Mercenaries require Vessel of Hatred.
| Selection |
|---|
| Soul Harvest; Decay Augmentation; Shaken Soul; Aura of Siphoning; Hex of Whispers; Vengeful Spirit Servant |
| Occult Gems: Vulture Talon; Friend of the Bog; Moonlight Ward |
| Runes: Cir + Thul; Igni + Ohm |
Paragon: boards and glyphs
First bring glyphs to ranks 15 and 46 for radius increases, then continue toward rank 100. Additional bonuses require enough purchased attributes within range.
Glyph priority: Torch, Tactician, Elementalist, Pyromaniac, Exploit.
| Board | Glyph |
|---|---|
| Start | Tactician |
| Burning Instinct | Exploit |
| Frigid Fate | Elementalist |
| Fundamental Release | Torch |
| Icefall | Pyromaniac |
Leveling, transition and patch limits
Use a conventional Sorcerer leveling setup until Flameweaver and adequate resources are available. Then practice positioning: the split must happen before the target and multiple projectiles must connect.
Do not copy two empty slots or S4 permanent-immunity expectations into this version. Vulture Talon helps short farming fights but does not automatically increase sustained boss DPS.
