As a true-blue Sorceress at heart, I can say that the Sorcerer/Sorceress is one of the best classes inDiablo 4. However, unlocking the Enchantment Slots system early in your game playthrough can make this class even more powerful. This requires undertaking a specific quest and knowing how to use Enchantment Slots.
Don’t worry if this all sounds confusing. I’m here to step you through unlocking Enchantment Slots in Diablo 4, showing you how to assign skills, and explaining what each skill does.
What are Enchantment Slots in Diablo 4?
The Enchantment Slots system is a unique mechanic specific to the Sorcerer (Sorceress) class. Placing a skill in the Enchantment Slot unlocks a passive perk or other bonus related to that skill. In general, Enchantment Slot perks tend to provide offensive, defensive, resource, or utility effects.

How do you unlock the second Sorcerer Enchantment Slot in Diablo 4?
If you’ve already done the Legacy of the Magi quest that unlocks the first Enchantment Slot, then all you need to do to unlock the second one is reach level 30. The second slot will unlock automatically at that point. You’ll just need to go into your Skill Tree and assign a Skill to the Enchantment Slot to take advantage of it.

You’ll eventually be able to assign up to two Enchantment Slots if you continue to level up in Diablo 4. The very first Skill I suggest you assign is Fireball since it makes defeated enemies explode and damage those around them. Many people compare it to Necormancer’s popular Corpse Explosion and find it similarly deadly.
After Fireball, it’s good to assign a protective skill like Flame Shield, which automatically forms around you if you take fatal damage but will need some cooldown time before it can be used again. Blizzard is also an excellent choice as it causes a blizzard to appear over your head often and inflicts damage on enemies.
Many people also find Arc Lash and Ball Lightning to be instrumental in bringing loads of enemies down quickly. At any rate, I recommend assigning an offensive Skill as well as a Defensive Skill to your Enchantment Slots to all-around boost your power as a Sorcerer.

Diablo 4 Sorcerer Enchantment Slot FAQ
It’s very possible you still have some remaining questions surrounding Sorcerer Enchantment slots. As such, this section is meant to catch all other related quandaries you might have.
How many Enchantment slots can you have in Diablo 4?
Sorcerers can have two Enchantment slots total in Diablo IV. The first one can be unlocked at level 15 after completing the Legacy of the Magi quest. The second slot immediately unlocks when Sorcerers reach level 30.
How many skills do Sorcerers have in Diablo 4?
Sorcerers and Sorceresses in Diablo 4 have 24 skills that can be unlocked within six magical groups — Basic, Core, Defensive, Conjuration, Mastery, and Ultimate Skills. Many of these skills can be upgraded or otherwise made more powerful through being “enhanced.”
How many times can you respec Skill Points in Diablo 4?
The good news is that you can respec as often as you like and basically whenever you like in Diablo IV as long as you have enough Gold to do so. Obviously, you’ll want to be strategic about this since this can quickly drain your pockets.
Enchant your Skills as a Sorcerer or Sorceress
The Sorcerer (and Sorceress) offer powerful ranged attacks to keep enemies at bay with elemental damage. In order to get the most out of your Skills, you’ll want to make sure to assign as many as you can to any unlocked Elemental Slots. It’s rather easy to unlock the first slot, but you’ll have to put some work in and level up before you can unlock the second one.
Good luck gaining more abilities and powers. Eventually, you’ll become a powerful magical force to be reckoned with, and Lilith’s hordes won’t be a problem at all.
