Sorceress in Diablo 4 utilizes an Enchantment system as a unique class mechanic. With this system, the Sorceress can gain up to two special passives that enhance the use of their Skills.
Sorceress Enchantment System in Diablo 4
Obtaining Enchantments
Once you reach level 15 as a Sorceress, you automatically acquire the Priority Quest Legacy of the Magi. This quest line is a requirement to unlock the Enchantment Slots system.
Upon completing the quest, the Sorceress has access to one Enchantment Slot, with the next and final one becoming available at Level 30.
Enchantment Slots can be accessed from the Skill Assignment menu. From there, any non-Ultimate Skill of Rank 1 or higher can be applied to a Slot, causing its special Enchantment passive effect to become active.
Enchantment Rules
Enchantments are small but powerful additions to your build which can bolster its strengths or add versatility. The following should be noted about Enchantments:
- Skills must be non-Ultimate and have at least one Skill Point in them to be used (either from the Skill Tree or through gear).
- You can use a Skill on your action bar and in one Enchantment Slot at the same time.
- A Skill's Rank, along with its Enhanced and Upgrade choices carry through when placed into an Enchantment slot. For example, the 5-headed Hydra spawned by the Hydra Skill's Enchantment will inherit the same boosts as a normal Hydra.
- Enchantments can be swapped in and out at any time.
- The first slot unlocks at level 15, the second at level 30.

This information is completely false.
So much of this information is outdated and wrong…
