ONE BAR MAGICKA SORCERER

PURPOSE

This is a 1 bar Magicka DPS build using cheap crafted and purchased gear with no monster set.  It parses 50+k with 2 buttons and has an optional back bar for simple AoE. You can either very simply learn the mechanics of DPS, light attack weaving, and animation canceling with this build as a new player, or improve your game play if you are struggling with dps rotations by stripping everything down to basics and building from a solid foundation!
