 Spark Stormweaver Build |
 Spark Launches a spray of sparking projectiles that travel erratically along the ground until they hit an enemy or expire.
 Flame Wall Creates a wall of fire in front of the character, which ignites everything within its area. Any projectiles fired through the wall by you and allies deal added fire damage and inflict ignite on hit.
 Orb of Storms Creates an Orb of electricity that fires Chaining Lightning bolts at nearby enemies.
 Conductivity Curses all targets in an area after a short delay, lowering their Lightning Resistance.
 Lightning Warp Teleports you inside the target's body, causing it to violently explode. Highlights enemies that can be culled, and can only be used on these enemies or Ball Lightning projectiles. The target is destroyed, and the explosion deals Lightning Damage to surrounding enemies and creates Shocked Ground.
 Mana Remnants Conjures surging lightning to restore your Mana. While active, Shocked enemies you kill have a chance to spawn a Mana Remnant, and Critically Hitting a Shocked target spawns a Mana Remnant every few seconds. Picking up a Mana Remnant grants you Mana which can Overflow maximum Mana.
 Archmage While Active, causes your Non-Channelling Spells to cost additional mana and deal extra lightning damage, both based on your maximum mana.

This Spark Stormweaver build is the enhanced version of the Spark Sorceress leveling that continues using Spark as its main damage tool. Flame Wall remains to support Spark along with huge damage upgrade with Archmage.
Even after getting hit by huge nerfs from patch 0.2.0, Spark and the synergy with its accompanying skills are still among the best builds to clear maps and melt bosses in the game.

It is still recommended to equip a Wand and a Focus instead of a Staff to maximize modifiers on both weapons. Prioritize getting damage, level, and cast speed modifiers to boost Spark's damage output. Keep an eye out for higher level wands and focus.
It is still recommended to prioritize Increased Rarity of Items Found on equipment to increase the chances of looting better items. Movement Speed is also highly important as this builds mobility is low and it would also speed up map exploration.
Elemental Resistances and Energy Shield modifiers are needed to build up survivability as Energy Shield will continuously be translated as Mana, effectively giving survivability with the Mind over Matter and Eldritch Battery passive nodes activated.
Since Archmage will drain a lot of mana, Lazuli Ring and Azure Amulet are important to sustain it.
Prioritize getting any mana and Energy Shield modifiers along with Increased Rarity of Items Found to increase the chance of better loot to prepare for the endgame. Increasing damage and mana modifiers also improve Spark's offensive output.

・Increased Projectile Damage

It is recommended to equip Emeralds as it can enhance the damage and speed of Spark projectiles, which is the main skill used in this build.
| Equipment | Sockets |
|---|---|
| Weapon | |
| Armor |
It is recommended to equip the Soul Core of Zalatl for both Weapons and Armor rune slots because the Spark Stormweaver build's mana is important to manage to maximize damage.
Soul Core of Xopec is a good alternative for Weapons as it increases Shock. For Armor, Iron Runes are also recommended to increase Energy Shield.
| All Runes and Soul Cores | |

 Grounding Charm |
・X% increased Duration
・Gains X Charges per Second ・Recover X Life when Used |
Since Cruel Mode is a more difficult version of Acts 1 to 3, the Charms pretty much stay the same. Equip a Thawing Charm and Sapphire Charm when facing Count Geonor since it negates Freezing and offers Cold Resistance from his Chill attacks.
In Act 5 and Act 6, replace Thawing Charm with a Grounding Charm as it helps negate both Jamanra, the Abomination and Doryani's Shock from their attacks. Keep Sapphire Charm as it still helps against Chill attacks from Doryani in Act 6.
※ The Support Gems' priority are arranged in a descending order. The first one being the most important and the last being the least crucial.

|
Use Jeweller's Orbs or a Vaal Orb to increase Support Gem slots of Skills equipped. Note that Vaal Orbs corrupt Skill gems for a random chance to increase the slot.
We remove Mana Tempest and other buffs from the leveling build for the addition of Archmage as it greatly increases the damage output of Spark at the risk of a higher mana cost.
Flame Wall allows Spark to be imbued with fire, making the projectiles stronger. Orb of Storms becomes a mana regeneration totem with Font of Mana while Conductivity reduces enemy's elemental resistance. Lightning Warp is used to teleport around and cull mobs to avoid being trapped.

Once Ascendancy has been achieved, focus on unlocking the Constant Gale and Force of Wind to gain Arcane Surge. Arcane Surge gives the Stormweaver a buff that increases Cast Speed and Mana Regenaration, which helps improve Spark.
After following the Spark Sorceress leveling build and progressing towards the later stages of the game, it is recommended to refund the early damage passive nodes from the leveling build to switch over mana and Energy Shield nodes as a priority. The damage that Spark does at this point will be great enough that the build will need all the survivability.
Activating the passive skill nodes Mind over Matter and Eldritch Battery essentially makes this build a tanky with enough mana, since damage is applied to mana and energy shield before it goes through HP.

The playstyle in this build will remain the same as in the leveling build. Remember to activate Archmage and use Spark your main damage skill.

The skill rotation is simply the same with mobbing minus the usage of Lightning Warp since you are mostly targeting the Boss.
