I am just about to make the jump to WT4, and starting to look at options other than my rend/ bleed barbarian. So what is everyone else playing? What do you like / dislike about your build so far?

I'm currently level 54 on a sorcerer, in WT3 - I'm currently using a Frost Nova build and am definitely having some issues. I can get a decent amount of enemies cleared when Frost Nova is up, but when that is on cooldown I suffer tremendously. I'm also using Ice Shards with the aspect that gives you additional damage when a barrier is up (running Ice Armor + Flame Shield) and that helps a little bit, but I've gotta say it doesn't really feel all that great.

However, I'm fairly new to ARPGs in general - I'd just started getting the hang of D3 (I played as Wizard for my first season, and then fell in love with Monk)... So in general I think I just have a lot of learning to do.

Make sure you have the thing that gives a chance to reset defensive skills when you’re hit.

Frost nova is a defensive skill technically. Short circuiting the cooldown is hugely helpful.
