Sorcerers are becoming the next Bright Wizards

no sorc is the class that is popping bubbles every 20 seconds, spamming their slow every 4 seconds, pulling their teammates up onto ledges, and incombat speed bursting away from combat and through burners. name one class that can cc that much

btw, this "spamming 1 ability" ******** is getting old. go learn to read and then come back and make a valid argument against merc

False logic. Ops by far had the highest burst dmg and kill rate and they weren't overly numerous.

There's also far more DPS Sorcs on Imp side than there are DPS Sages on Repub side. But everyday there's more and more Sorcs and Sages.. not because they ARE OP.. but because they keep reading these threads that say they are, which are written by people who have absolutely no understanding of the class whatsoever.

The majority of the people who play this game are terrible at PvP. They don't use their own CC correctly, they BREAK the CC of others that IS used correctly, nobody interrupts anything, and you see someone try to break LoS on a Ranged Class once in a blue moon.

The only common skill I see is the ability to spot a low enemy health bar and dogpile on it to try to get the KB.

Getting hit by Lightning or Rocks? Interrupt the channel! Now they're locked out of it for a bit and can't Proc their highest dmg DoT instant cast!

Got CC'd? Wait it out! If you don't blow your escape immediately you won't get CC'd again!

Tried the above and still got "chain cc'd?" They're smarter than you and realize that Roots aren't on the Resolve List so they mixed it up and kept you from going immune. Don't like that? Me either. Whine to Bioware about THAT instead of claiming a class you know nothing about is OP.


And honestly a team of Sorcs/Sages can be countered by a team of JK's and SW's. Force Leaps 2 second root doesn't set off resolve so just have your team of Leapers chain leap and attack and the sorcs will drop FAST.

it's not just you. For over a month ppl have been saying the mercs and sorcs are op. Ops got the most yelling, so they got nerfed first. Mercs just go "uh uh... Look at the sorc ****" and sorcs go "**** that ops just 2 shot me". Now that the ops nerf i think sorcs will be looked at next.

I can very comfortably say that over 50% of people in warzones will be sorc and merc. This is sad cuz if everything was equal and people could just play what they want they would make up 25%. I myself rolled assassin and find huttball the most painful thing in the world. Rerolled a merc and find it too brainless. So yeah, i will roll a sorc. It's like wow when arena came out. Wanna be good? Roll druid or warr.

But let's not forget, it's a l2p issue when 2 classes make up 50% of warzones.

I read the forums a lot, and it's funny how many people complain about nerds being needed and classes being overpowered.

I PvP a bunch, more than questing/grinding by far, and the classes seem to be holding up to their roles pretty well.

I play a burst dps operative. I stealth, find a squishy, and unload on them. I have to wait till I see their shield go away, and interrupt their heals.

If I get caught out of stealth by a sorc I can be ranged and kited down fairly easily.

Tanks can take a beating, but their DPS isn't on par.

Healers can stay alive too, but their DPS is not much.

It seems like everyone wants to be able to eat every other class. That's not how it works, know your roll and play rock paper scissors to pick your battles.

I like how all these sorcs tell you they insta die to interrupt. Which is a blatant lie, lol. Are you just going to stand there after i interrupt you and do nothing for 4 seconds, and also wait for my 9 seconds interrupt to cool down before you do anything? Or use your knock back that roots me and force speed off or use one of your 2 cc abilities? 4 seconds pass and its back to spamming force lightning with your nice bubble before my interrupt cool downs.

Sorcs arguably have the worst single target of any spec in game and are BY FAR the squishiest.

Bright Wizards were a problem because their mechanic of building up heat and exploding wasn't hurting them bad enough and their AoE was absolutely smashing the crap out of everyone it hit.

Sages/Sorcs have no such ability to become more powerful the more they cast and the AoE isn't a death dealer unless it's multiple AoE's or you're already being hit by other classes.
