Upon chosing to be a sorcerer, i selected the orb, and i equipped it, put inn manastones, and power shards, but when in combat nothing happens, it do not fire at the mob, also the "attack" button is greyed out all the time,.

How do i get it to work, and fire at the mobs..

Thank you.

    The Orb is a melee range weapon. Meaning to use it's attack you have to be in melee range. It's good for adding damage to your spells, but otherwise I would avoid using it's attack..... you know melee range and all.

    to that point, I use it as a finisher. Well, I also use an orb over a book anyways.

    But when your mob has a sliver of health just hit the orb attack andit will bounce out and take that little bit off very quickly as opposed to casting an entire spell.

    Like Skyrim? Need more content? Try my Skyrim mod "Godfred's Tomb."

    While the orb hits harder, the shorten range and the lack of being able to kite multiple enemies while CC skills refresh is overall negative in my book.  Being able to strafe and out range several enemies seems like the better utility of the item.  Though for stat usage, I think the orb had better raw spell damage and crit.  While the book had more spell hit if I recall correctly.
