To make this build work, you must spend all 58 skills points wisely. Below you can find the layout of all skill point distribution for the best Firewall Sorcerer build in Diablo 4 Season 2. 

If you invest all your skill points as shown above, you will create a template for a solid Firewall Sorcerer build. The goal is to have just enough mana all the time to inflict burning damage on enemies with Firewall while making them vulnerable and freezing them in a place with Frost Nova to deal devastating damage over time.

Teleport can help you avoid most attacks while also preventing CC. On the other hand, Ice Armor and Flame Shield will ensure you don't get trampled by Elites and Bosses, especially in Helltides and Nightmare Dungeons.
