How to Unlock Sorcerer Enchantment Slots – Diablo 4

In the dark and magical world of Diablo IV, the Sorcerer class possesses a unique and coveted ability: Enchantment Slots. These slots offer a means for Sorcerers to amplify their purchased skills in unprecedented ways. Unlocking these slots is the key to unlocking the true potential of a Sorcerer character. In this article, we will unravel the secrets behind accessing these slots, empowering you to wield unimaginable power and become a formidable force in the realm of Diablo 4.

How to Unlock Sorcerer Enchantment Slots

To unlock Enchantment Slots for your Sorcerer in Diablo 4, follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Reach Level 15: Enchantment Slots become available once your Sorcerer character reaches level 15.
2. Initiate the Quest: At level 15, the quest “Sorcerer: Legacy of the Magi” will begin.
3. Locate Mordarin: Head to the southwestern corner of the “Desolate Highlands” region in the Fracture Peaks. Here, you will find Mordarin, who is searching for the “Forgotten Codex.”
4. Obtain the Forgotten Codex: Mordarin requires your assistance in retrieving the Forgotten Codex, a book that holds great significance. Make your way east to the Lost Archives dungeon, where the tome has been hidden.
5. Progress through the Dungeon: While you don’t have to clear the entire dungeon, you will need to advance inside. Complete the objective “Slay the Demonic Vanguard,” and then proceed to the next objective, “Return the Mechanical Box to the Pedestal.” Instead of focusing on the boxes, concentrate on defeating the demons and search for a “Dust-Covered Chest” within the dungeon. The Forgotten Codex will be found inside.
6. Return to Mordarin: Exit the dungeon and return to Mordarin’s location. He will eagerly put the Forgotten Codex to use.
7. Participate in the Ritual: Follow Mordarin into his shack and assist him by lighting braziers as part of a ritual. However, be prepared for some unforeseen complications during the process. Deal with the demons that appear and then speak to Mordarin once the chaos subsides.
8. Acquire the Forgotten Codex: Mordarin, realizing his mistakes, will give you the Forgotten Codex. He expresses his intention to return to Kurast to rectify his errors.
9. Unlock Enchantment Slots: Thankfully, Mordarin’s error becomes your advantage. The possession of the Forgotten Codex will unlock your Sorcerer’s Enchantment Slots, allowing you to further enhance your skills and wield greater power.

By following these steps, you will successfully unlock the coveted Enchantment Slots for your Sorcerer character, gaining access to a new level of arcane customization and the potential to unleash devastating combinations upon your foes in the world of Diablo 4.

What are Enchantment Slots?

After unlocking Enchantment Slots in Diablo 4, it’s time to harness their power and enhance your Sorcerer’s skills. Here’s a breakdown of how Enchantment Slots work and the passive effects they offer:

1. Accessing the Skill Equipment Menu: To equip skills into your Enchantment Slots, navigate to your skill tree and press DualSense-L3 / Xbox-Stick-L-Button to enter the skill equipment menu.
2. Identifying Enchantment Slots: In the skill equipment menu, you will notice two slots located below the skill icons, accompanied by the helpful “Enchantments” text. These are the Enchantment Slots that you can utilize to enhance your skills.
3. Equipping Skills: To utilize an Enchantment Slot, select any skill that you know, regardless of whether you have access to it through gear or other means. You can equip this skill into one of your Enchantment Slots. It’s important to note that one Enchantment Slot unlocks at Level 15, while the second becomes available at Level 30.
4. Passive Effects: Each skill offers a unique passive effect when equipped in an Enchantment Slot, providing a different benefit compared to using the skill in its regular form. Here are some examples of skill enchantment effects:
   • Spark: Killing an enemy has a 10% chance to form a Crackling Energy.
   • Fire Bolt: Direct damage from Skills applies up to an additional 23% Burning damage over 8 seconds.
   • Frost Bolt: Direct damage from Skills applies up to 15% Chill.
   • Arc Lash: When you use a Cooldown, enemies around you are Stunned for 0.5 seconds.
   • Fireball: When you kill an enemy, they explode in a Fireball for 50% of its damage.
5. Experimentation and Flexibility: There is no cost associated with equipping a skill as an Enchantment, aside from the skill points required to unlock the skill itself. You can have a skill equipped both as an active skill and in an Enchantment Slot simultaneously. This allows for maximum flexibility and experimentation with different combinations. Feel free to swap out skills in your Enchantment Slots as new opportunities arise to optimize your gameplay.

By strategically selecting and equipping skills into your Enchantment Slots, you can unleash their passive effects and amplify your Sorcerer’s capabilities in Diablo 4. Explore the possibilities, find what works best for your playstyle, and adapt to the challenges that await you in the dark and mystical world of Diablo 4.
