The reason Sorcerer/Sage CC is OP in PvP

Yes lol. So far the best I've done was ~530k in Voidstar in full PvE gear. I don't use a single piece of expertise gear because I ripped some of the mods out of whatever champion gear I got. No doubt I'm at a pretty severe disadvantage but it doesn't stop me much. I always beat the fully geared battlemaster Marauders on my server. If I'm up against a battlemaster geared player 1v1 I typically don't win since they get like a 30% advantage but I can typically play it smart and bait them into making mistakes that allow me to get kills(teammates FTW) or allow me to kill ball carriers(They chase me and I turn around and go after their ball carrier when they're far enough away). I had a Gladiator Hunter(S8 and S9) in WoW so I'm no stranger to PvP and Skill>All.

When I made this thread I didn't really think about my own person struggle against them. 9/10 of players fall over against me regardless of class. I just saw people using this amazing spec with incredible CC and that made me do my research. I found the spec incredibly overpowered and made this thread in an effort to rebalance them without killing the spec in PvP. I only suggested the most minor of changes because I'm not a fan of over-nerfing classes

So here's my issue. You play in PVE gear, ok whatever your choice. But you don't even play a Sorc. All you did was read tooltips and decide that they are OP. Seriously ***! Based on tooltips alone I could create a story for ANY class and say that they are OP.

You don't have any issue killing Sorc's, yet you call for nerfs to the class? You said it yourself that they pose no issue to your playing. Why do you want them nerfed?

I just don't understand why you would read tooltips and then decide the class without even playing it first.

There are so many flaws in your arguments that you still refuse to acknowledged. But you created an engaging thread. People from both sides of the fence have something to say.


----------------------------------------
Here's what I would wish, go play a sorc to 50. Get at least your cent pvp set and then come back with comments and suggestions.

Right now you don't have all the information. Your posts are all opinion. Even with tooltips, your still only getting half of the story. Become a better player and get all your information.

Bioware has stated that every class has a scale. Everyone is judged by that scale so they are balanced. If they feel abilites are performing not as intented then they will do something.

BUT they play the classes, they don't just read tooltips.

Again this is getting to that Sorceres and sages Need to have

4 sec cast time on all spells!
One CC with 5 min CD
Breaker with 5 min CD
30% Dmg debuff vs Melee


all you damn whiners want are spell casters that are upfront with you all the time and cant run away

Funny you dont see ppl with blasters and missiles ofc the moves they have arent verry flashy ... and the melee classes have it bad.... gees get over your self

pvp is Fine L2p! all classes are fine L2P!

Dude you're dumb. I can't wait till you play vs an all sage or all sorc team in huttball.

Blukz if you cant kill a Sorcer or come close you Rly need to L2P
