The reason Sorcerers/Sages are OP in PvP

I'd say that's balanced if your main weapon is a slingshot while everyone else has Angels.

Rage/Annihilation is so far and away worse then ann/watchman I have no idea why these sorc/sages would even mention it.

Oh yeah...it is cus they actually think their class is balanced and have no idea what it is like to be melee playing against all sorc/mercs.

FYI simpletons. The "second charge" isn't a charge. You end up like 2-3 yards from your target. When we ARE BORED and spec rage/focus? We use that thing mostly as part of our dps cycle.

Rage/Focus was good on servers before everyone had experitse, and could possibly be good on low pop realms with fresh 50's.

On a server where everyone is geared it is possibly the worst pvp spec we have. The ONLY reason to run it would be rated warzones for perma transcendence and that will be nerfed to the ground once people figure it out.

So far as I know, channeled abilities are not in fact periodic damage. Weird, I know. But in a way, it makes sense not to have that talent affect the channel because there is one in the 2nd tier that does.

As far as that spec, you're kind of gimping your dps a bit. I would change to this one for maximum CC potential. I know the point isn't necessarily to maximize dps, but you should still do pretty well there. Most of your damage will come from tab-dotting weakened mind and taking judicious advantage of procs.

Did nobody read what I posted? It's fine if you want to move cc talents up trees, but at least admit that going up a full sorc dps tree is gimped as hell.

Seriously, go thundering blast for pvp and come back and talk. You won't even remotely compete with it. Even with all the cc, it's still terrible. Do you honestly think the only reason we go hybrid is to be op? It's seriously because doing a one tree specialization is AWFUL.

lololololololololololololololol

Not sure what you're laughing about. If you're going to argue with me, at least try to be coherent.

Quite simply put, 31 mad is 3% behind the hybrid spec. And is actually a better PvP spec for a good player.

Fair enough. Just looking at pure numbers though, hybrid puts out more dps if you ignore some of the cc.

My point with lightning sorcs still stands, though.

31 madness is the kite spec, and does well. It trades the utility of the hybrid for the excellent damage talents at the top of the tree.

Chastising him w/ "lolololol" does not, however, make you sound like you are making an intelligent argument and really hurts your credibility if you were trying to make any real point.
