Tera Sorcerer Build Guide

Do you want to have Tera Sorcerer Build? Well, if you are looking for a good guide to help you properly build your skills, glyphs and crystals to completely blow away the competition with your Sorcerer, you have definitely come to the right place. My name is Stephanie Lee and I have been addicted to Tera Online ever since its debut in Korea!

I consider myself a pretty good Tera player and since its North American release, I have even devoted literally hundreds of hours researching the best skill, glyph and crystals builds that work the best for certain situations. Below, I have outlined some viable skill builds and glyph builds for the Sorcerer that I have found to have worked quite well. Keep in mind that this guide only covers a small aspect of the Warrior. If you want a full Warrior guide to show you the perfect builds and how to completely max out your character in every way, I highly recommend the Argon's Guide.

When you level up when playing the Sorcerer in Tera, you will be able to unlock a vast variety of different spells and abilities. However the downside to this is that you will only be able to use a limited amount at a single time. This means that having the proper skill and glyph build is extremely important if you want to learn how to dominate each situation that you may encounter in Tera Online.

The build that I will be exposing to you today is a AOE DPS inspired build that I have developed after countless hours of research. I will show you the skills that I chose plus a couple of glyphs that you can use to compliment that particular skill with the pros and cons of each. Keep in mind that the skill build I created was designed around my own play style. Feel free to change or add new skills according to your liking.

Arcane Pulse is spell that you are able to charge up to deal heavy AOE damage to targets within a straight line. When activated, you will be able to charge up the pulse attack by holding down the skill button and when released, will hit targets in a 21 meter straight line. Maxed out, it costs 248 mana to activate, has a power level of 3101 and has a 10 second cool down.

Glyph of the Slick: This glyph will eliminate the movement restriction when you are charging up your Arcane Pulse. Important glyph to consider when fighting in tight spaces where your character will always be focused by mobs or other players.

Glyph of Carving: This glyph will double the chance that Arcane Pulse will score a critical. An excellent glyph to get if you need that extra DPS for bosses or more difficult mobs.

Fireblast is an excellent AOE ability that you will be able to unlock at lower levels. When activated, you will be able to blast enemies that are 10 meters in front of you with a flaming circle that has a 4 meter radius. An excellent ability to use to kill multiple mobs quickly and easily in PVE. It has a cast time of 4.4 seconds, cost 1000 mana to activate and has a cool down of 12 seconds.

Glyph of Impulsion: This glyph will give you a 30% chance to eliminate the mana cost to cast Fireblast. This is a very important glyph as saving 1000 mana on the cast can definitely add up and you will be able to use your MP else where.

Glyph of Brilliance: This glyph will decrease the mana consumption of Fireblast by 250. This is an important glyph to consider if you would like to reduce your overall mana usage in the battlefield.

Glyph of Haste: This glyph will increase the cast speed of Fireblast by 17%. Although number might not seem like much, by increasing the speed of the cast, you will be able to build your combos quicker allowing you to maximize your damage output.

Void Pulse is a very powerful single target DPS spell. When activated, you will launch a powerful sphere at a target that is within 21 meters. Void Pulse has a power level of up to 4086, a cool down of 15 seconds and costs 1000 mana to cast.

Glyph of Brilliance: This glyph reduces the mana cost of Void Pulse from 1000 to 750. This reduction in mana cost to activate the ability is great for those who want to create a conservative MP build.

Glyph of Energy: This glyph will decrease the cool down of Void Pulse by 20%. An excellent glyph to consider if you want to focus on spamming this ability to increase your overall damage output.

Burning Breath is another single target ability that deals heavy DPS. When activated, you will shoot a blaze of fire on a single target within 15 meters of you that will deal up to 2305 damage every 2 seconds for 10 seconds. It costs 500 mana to cast, has a cast time of 1 second and has a cool down of 30 seconds.

Glyph of Interception: This glyph reduces the targets HP regeneration effects by 50% for 10 seconds. An excellent glyph to get for PVP as this only works against other players.

Glyph of Lingering: This glyph increases the duration of Burning Breath by 20%. If you want to add more DPS, you may want to consider this using this glyph.

Having the right crystal build for your Sorcerer in Tera is just as important as the right skills and glyphs. Below, I have outlined the crystals that I find to be the most effective for your weapon and armour in support and healing situations.

WEAPON Fine Carving- Increases your critical chance percentage by X

Focused- Increases your critical damage to enraged monsters

Savage- Increases your critical damage when attacking monsters/players from rear

Backbiting- Increases your critical damage to normal monsters from rear

Acrimonious- Increases your critical damage to medium monsters from rear

ARMOUR Relentless- Will increase your overall HP by X amount

Vigorous- Will give you hit point regeneration by X amount per 5 seconds.

The builds above for the Tera Sorcerer should be used as a guideline. The reason I say this is because these builds are targeted towards my own personal preference, play style and of course builds are never set in stone. Builds for your Sorcerer will always change depending on the situation/scenario you are in and also differs depending on factors such as your own play style, equipment and hot keys. However, there is a way to know exactly what is the best build to use in every situation as an Sorcerer.
