SWTOR Lightning Sorcerer Best Solo Build Video Guide

START

0:00 Welcome, to the best Lightning Sorcerer Build, optimized to perform extremely well in solo content by utilizing effects designed specifically for use against trash mobs.

Skill Tree and Gearing

0:13 The Gathering Storm and Unmatched  Haste legendary implants provide the best boost when playing solo content.

0:20 The solo Lightning build revolves around using  Chain Lightning to deal damage directly and apply Suppressive Current, which will  make affected targets take additional damage from your next Force Storm. Then  you have Affliction, Thundering Blast, Lightning Flash, Crushing Darkness, and  Shock to finish off stronger enemies.

Ability Priorities

0:44 There are 2 mini-rotations for Lightning  in solo content depending on whether you want to deal a lot of single-target  or AoE damage. With both rotations, make sure to reapply Static Barrier as  soon as the Deionized debuff wears off.

0:59 This rotation will be enough to take out groups of trash comprised exclusively of standard and weak enemies.

1:09 The AoE Damage rotation deals enough damage  to bring everything low enough that these abilities will be enough to take out any of the stronger enemies that are left standing.

1:21 You really only need to include  Crushing Darkness against Gold NPCs, Affliction, Thundering Blast, Lightning Flash will be enough for most Silvers.

1:33 Thundering Blast deals more damage than Lightning Flash or Crushing Darkness, but Crushing Darkness needs time to tick, makes the target take a bit more damage from Force attacks, and the rate limit on the Lightning Storm proc that makes Chain Lightning instant won’t always be up if you  use Thundering Blast that early. You’re not gonna need to use more than one Thundering  Blast anyway so delaying is irrelevant.
