    Staff into Rifle Mortar, It gets you all the ticks from Weapon of Destiny. Two handed into arrow storm can work aswell.

    Depends on how you play. I would say what ever weapon you are good with.

    I think there is 3 kinds of weapons you could choose. Melee. One handed for the most part. Risk reward playing melee. Your on your back alot. Range speed. This would be a two step combo. Hold hold or tap hold. Staff/morter, brawl/ma, 2H/bow, 1H/HB. Range big hitters. HB/Bow, there are others but you get the idea. Use the weapon your best with.

    I would say speed melee, but have yet to find a fast melee combo that hits good.

    Black Prime is right, choose what you're good at.

    Personally, I've seen kick *** Sorcerers using Dual Pistols WM into Dual Wield or Hand Blasters. I favour the Dual Pistols myself but I'm not good enough to really get into WM combos (not to mention my mouse is broken). Bow and Arrow is a good one too, lots of people saying that its WM is great.

    If you're looking for stuff that hits a lot really quickly, your options are

    Brawling --> Shuriken Storm (low damage, ranged cone AoE; very fast with amazing power regen)
    Dual Pistols --> Ultra Flurry (melee area AoE)
    Dual Wield --> Flurry Shot (good damage single target; ranged)
    One-Handed --> Pulse Beam (hard hitting single target, melee)
    Rifle --> Full Auto (okay damage; ranged wide cone AoE)
    Staff --> Mortar (ranged area AoE; great damage)
    Two-Handed --> Arrow Storm (ranged area AoE; great damage)

    All other combos don't really provide a lot of hits for weapon procs, and the damage is pretty much similar on most of the weapons, except Staff and Rifle are really underpowered, or their WM attacks combo off really odd normal combos that just doesn't work well for their benefit.

    Hand Blasters into Bow WM is still best. For some reason, the output on that combo + burst power crit damage bonus is still insane.

    What makes that loadout for sorcery optimal? What loadouts did you compare with?

    I personally prefer 2H into Arrow Storm. It's slightly faster and you get 4 hits instead of 3 from Staff into Mortar.
