The Sorc does a lot of "minor" dmg, has some CC's, can heal. What is all the QQ over nerfing them? They are good in Hutball, decent in the other two and will be non existant if arena's come out. 1v1 they are a joke vs. BH, OP, Melee if similar gear and players. They have no burst dmg and a 2 min. CC breaker.

Maybe you should wait until real PvP comes out before you start these OP Hutball threads. There is no way in hell that anything but a pure heal spec Sorc will be viable for good arena teams.

Over and over people run out of arguments for Sorcerer being balanced in the CURRENT game environment so they talk about future potential game environments where they MIGHT be balanced. People have talked about a resolve rework, arenas, and even an alternate universe where WZs are 1v1 matches.

1v1 a Sorcerer is middle of the pack in terms of usefulness.

Group PvP is not 1v1. In Group PvP Sorcerers are by far the best class in almost every situation. Their utility, CC, escapability, and AoE potential make them monsters in Warzones. Warzones are the ONLY PvP we currently have. Do NOT talk about potential Arenas they may or may not ever release. This is irrelevant.

Their CC needs to be toned down so that they are not such monsters in group PvP. They have more utility than any other class by far and to top it off most of their utility abilities are on SHORTER cooldowns despite being BETTER than similar CCs from other classes. It's not balanced for them for have Backlash on a hybrid spec build. It's not balanced for ANY class or spec to be able to toss out 4.5s CD Bubbles that have AoE CCs attached.

Can you at least try to make a decent argument instead of just saying "But we'll DIE!"
