AION 2 Sorcerer Class Guide
The Sorcerer is the ranged magic DPS of the AION 2 launch roster — huge AoE damage with the fragility of a glass cannon.
Role & weapon
Role: ranged magic damage. Weapon: staff or arcane focus (series tradition) — devastating from range, vulnerable up close.
Combat style & core mechanics
Combat style: AoE burst with careful positioning. Core identity: enormous area damage for farming and dungeon clears, balanced by low survivability.
PvE
One of the strongest AoE farming classes in the series tradition; a star of dungeon clears. Fragility is the trade-off.
PvP
Glass-cannon burst with control, per the series tradition — devastating if protected, focused down quickly if caught.
Beginner difficulty
Powerful but positional. Damage is easy to produce; staying alive takes practice. Not the most forgiving first class.
