Easy mode instant cast and channeled.

Knockbacks, a sick regen rate, and the ability to heal themselves.

So yeah, basically if you combined a disc priest with an arcane mage.

Yup, thats sorcs in a nutshell.

I really don't understand... Just grab your sorc friend and duel them where they don't fight back at all. Watch how fast they drop.

Do people not understand that? Low survivability gets high utility. They need their shields, high healing, pushback snare. Without them, they're a joke. It's like everyone is hellbent to make every class but their's useless...
oh now I see why my gunslinger has so many ccs and defensive abilities that actually work. because compared to that ****** sort shield my defence screen absorbs about 43583468 damage

Well the issue is also that its obviously the easiest/most rewarding class to play as everyone rolls one in pvp.

I haven't ever seen an all warrior, bh, or agent group but i've seen TONS of sorc groups across different servers.

1 attack that does damage and slow and you can skill that it has no cooldown with ONE point spam it all over, buff it to hell and back with few more akillpoints is just beyond anything.

"In order to stay alive"?

Well, alot of other classes have less healing and DpS output and about NO ways to stay alive. As a Commando I can however rank pretty high up on dmg if i get some lucky AoEs, but it involves ALOT of spawnrushing as we dont have any of the utility sorc has. Heavy armor counts for about nothing in this game. Im basically playing a sorc with no force speed, no bubble, no dots, no interrupt, no fetch. For commando its just spawn.. pewpewpew, die, spawn, pewpewpew, die. I would very much like any utility to be able to escape or reduce dmg to a survivable degree (25% for 10 seconds every 2 min doesnt cut it as you are still fried down in a couple seconds even with 600 expertise). What is also annoying is that even your KB is better, as we only get a 50% sloweffect for 4 seconds to go with it, you get a 5 sec ROOT..? What gives?

And before you say most of your dmg is dots. DoTs is the most OP form of dmg in this game with the current state of WZ. You can make an entire team being unable to cap for 20 seconds ffs. Not like that ***** is removable with basic cleanse like firebased dots.

What bothers me with sorc/sage isnt the raw dmg output (though it gets ridiculously high when they start dotspamming), its the versatility of the class. With so much versatility/utility, it should be way, way easier to kill to only make players who are utilizing their whole aresnal shine. Which as you all know it isnt.

If you spam force lightning you're doing it wrong. Force lightning is used as an 'auto attack' or free spell when you have nothing else to cast.

I also like how it took you 10+ minutes to reply to my post after you started typing, I know this because I edited twice and you were either too embarrassed to add the last part or took 10 minutes to respond.
Is posting a race for you? Did you think you won, because you can type faster?Are you always quicker than others? Maybe your girlfriend doesn't like that you are always quick to finish?

But actually you lost, because i had a bet with a friend if i get you to post your WoW informations. So he lost the bet.

He said: "nah he wont fall for that"
And i said: "Look that guy is so full of himself, if i taunt him a bit he will surly post his WoW informations and look like a douchebag."

Guess who won ^^

You took 10 minutes after hitting reply to finish your post. Yawn. Running you in circles is really funny. I doubt you have many 'friends.'

Now you have to result to ad hominem. I've already won.

Bro. That's before rating inflation in Season 6. Didn't play after that because pvp in that game sucks. I love how I'm 'nerd raging' in this thread.

I said sorcs have the highest skill cap in the game.

Also. I'm not the one 'writing the guide' I'm not the original poster. Feel free to stick your foot directly in your mouth.
Glad title, along with every other arena title. 4/21/2009.

Gained in 3v3 or 2v2

Highest 3v3 Personal rating 2,483.

2009. This was season 5, which if I recall correctly had the most Gladiators ever from 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5, especially Rogues and Death Knights. I know, I played a DK Dead Glad season was also why they started to inflate things since it was the most gladiators then all Arenas during BC combined.

Does not impress me, since playing casually I hit 2419 and all I got was Challenger, since it's based on Battlegroup. Again, during Deadly Season, Season 5.

Now, also to point out and prove it was BG based, look at when you earned your 3v3 2400, 11/23/2010. More then a year after your Glad Title. I also see a 2200 2v2 rating.

Know what this says to me? Priest Rogue, got your title before they removed earning it in 2v2 due to how simple it was.
