Sorcerer Changes Brainstorming

When it comes to pvp madness, together with baseline fadeout, insta ww, some minor help with force management, long dots like affliction and creeping terror don't break mezzes, it would be great to swap the places of lightning barrage with subversion for that added little bit of burst, which is rng with a lockout of 10s.

With these few changes madness would be perfectly fine.

You realize pvping is far easier than raiding right? Specifically ranked, with no objectives...at all. If you really want to go down that path...you might do something that has objectives rather than "smash my keys to win!"

It is also clear you do not understand how Sin tanking works...in any aspect of the game. I suggest to stop posting on it. Also...are you really going to say merc heals are bad in PvP now? Really? lol. Yes, it's raiders who need things dumbed down and boosted...clearly.

I would argue that madness is the fluff spec. Certainly while your dots can be cured instantly. Hybrid has more burst. But, go on PvPr...continue thinking you understand Assassin tanking mechanics lol. Or the changes they've gone through. Launch...sure.

But really, if people want sorcs to have the same mobility and fast recovery heals, it will involve a total class change. You can't (well, shouldn't) have both.

Yeah, I don't play a healer. They're boring :P And yep, I meant root. My mistake, I don't play full madness anymore, as there are better specs. L2P If you're having resource problems as a sorc.

About healing...which they're fine in for PvE, and need some minor tooling in PvP.

Sorry for being sarcastic about that part

so merc heals are good in pvp? lol

keep s keying and clicking. don't stand in fire baddie

Not sure if serious... Cause, if you are, you have a very limited understanding of pvp.

Pretty sure almost everything you've said since you came into this thread is bad or wrong or both. Stop posting please. You clearly have zero clue about...anything relevant to this thread.

Lololololololololololololololololololololololo. Listen to this experienced and expert sorc and learn from him. Lolololololololololol. Between us we both know you don't play a sorc. And please stop posting about sins on this sorc thread, they have their own subforum.

Madness does need some work, and the changes that are being made are for PVP, well what if you do not PVP? The barrier is bad for PVE as it just drops your aggro and the mob attacks another player, however it does have it's uses to block certain big AOE attacks which can be nice. The DPS is still low, if you look at the server threads for DPS leaders they are much lower than the top classes.

I know someone might say utility,,,,great they can cleanse themselves, the other things they have like self heal is to simply make up for their severe lack of real defensive cooldowns in comparison to the other classes.

Fix Deathfield! When you use it, it normally makes you lose your target...why? I was targeted on a mob I used my AOE, the target is still alive, but I must re target? That is stupid, and a very bad design...fix it! Also if you look at the damage deathfield did before 2.0 and look at it now...it seems to have not scaled very well. At top end gear at lvl 50 my heatseekers crit for around 7k, I am at top end gear now and sometimes they crit for 11k...Daethfield looks like it went from 6k to 7.2k...buff it.

Also making sorc DOTs uncleanseable is stupid! what about bleeds for Mara's, they can be cleansed, fire for Pyro's they can be cleansed....so ***? you are kinda breaking a fundamental law. Find better ways to fix stuff.
