Sorcerer Changes Brainstorming

Sorry, I forgot some people haven't played since launch. Assassin tanks have been nerfed nearly every patch since launch, (largely due to PvPrs...) and have been nerfed so much, that they're re-tooling the class altogether.

Though...not sure why you run madness if you want burst. You'd be far better with hybrid for that. You do miss out on the slow though. But, to each their own and it's a different conversation altogether now isn't it? lol.

Maybe they'll re-tool sorcs as well. Seems to be the only fix to them, as everyone claims their damage is fine but power management is horrible. Which...ugh...it's not lol.

As for the healing issue, I'd argue it's your own fault for bringing a pad healer in replacement of a quick healer. They're designed to be fluff healers. (why do you think Sins hate sorc healers? Because when we spike we don't want to have to wait for a sorc to heal us, when 2 other classes can do it on demand.) They still have their place, and it's what they were designed for. If people don't like it...re-roll, bring another healer, or argue for sorcs to be redesigned.

Anything else is a bit...silly. To want the best aoe / fluff healing -and- have the same responsiveness and mobility as a merc / op.

Go hit consumption in PvE and stop posting here.

I'm pretty sure he has every right to post here, besides I don't see you bringing anything to the table.

1. What is the purpose of class balance? You've been arguing this whole time on a class balance thread only to give negative comments and in the end tell those who have problems to go reroll/bring another healer as a solution.
2. Sins hate sorc healers...sounds like your sorcs don't prebubble followed by instant aoe on your stun locks. L2p issue here if you're dying with your sorc healers having plenty of force. By the way, since when do you speak for sins?
3. Ignoring people is one way to admit defeat when dissected and questioned in an argument.

His view on class balance is:

"Sorc is fluff, the class is designed to be fluff. Its designed to be wrecked in PvP because fluff. Rerrol if dont like".

The problem is that this disastrous view is somewhat shared by the combat team (LoS heal to full play defensevely learn to play YOLO).

They seem to think that DPS sorcs are skirmishers. Which is actually cool. Skirmishers are a valid warfare tactic, if you are playing ROME 2 think about quick velites versus a slow phalanx. You can circle them and kill with javelins and they cant reach you. Youre faster, lighter.

The concept is nice and has been used by every military commander since the dawn of men.

But it doesnt work in MMOs. Why?

Because in real life the heavy greek phalanx didnt had the teams to magically jump 30 meters and get in the skirmishers face every minute. Thats why. If that happened in real life skirmishers wouldnt exist and military leaders would develop new tactics.
