Build Summary
DPS (Magic)
![Dragon's Dogma 2 - Sorcerer Vocation Icon]()
The Sorcerer vocation is best built as a magic DPS powerhouse with its arsenal of wide area-of-effect (AoE) spells to easily deal with mobs in the game. Your first priority when building the Sorcerer is to gain increased stamina and stamina recovery speed to be able to cast spells continuously. Afterwards, you will want to learn all magic damage-boosting augments and core skills to get the most returns, especially against bosses.
