SWTOR Lightning Sorcerer Rotation Demonstration | 2021 Gameplay | Elemental Convection Tactical Item
Star Wars the Old Republic
Lightning Sorcerer Rotation
Class - Sith Inquisitor
Advanced Class - Sorcerer
Spec - Lightning
Role - DPS
Level - 75
There are many ways you can play your Sorcerer. There is no "right" and "wrong" way. Everyone has their own play style. It's important to find a rotation that fits your needs. While one rotation might offer up more DPS than the next - there are other things to consider. Are you enjoying your rotation, are you able to pull it off consistently in combat? Etc.
A lot of Lightning players choose Stormwatch as their tactical item. I prefer Elemental Convection. It mixes up the rotation by adding another attack (Volt Rush) and it allows for more Chain Lightning. I also find it increases my overall DPS, especially if I time Chain Lightning to utilize its AOE damage.
There is wiggle room in our rotation thanks to all of the instant hit procs. Don't feel overwhelmed by trying to remember the entire rotation. Certain attacks are grouped together - trying to think of them in segments helped me to remember.
