Sorcs are BROKEN!!!

3.0 juggs and PT's are easy mode. Sins are easy too, plus they hit hard and make a clean vanish if they get into trouble.

I think what people are saying here:

PT's have the damage and control, but not the survivability.

Juggs get the survivability and damage. But they don't get the control. ypu could argue that ED is a little too much survivability.

Sorcs and sins get all three, along with almost zero energy management. This is why people complain.

I agree. But it's not just Sorcs. It's sages as well the whole god bubble heal back to max stuff is stupid as crap. They can be killed but it takes very talented to do it. Also frecking Forcestorm needs a nerf or a cool down just a 2 sec t 3 sec cool down would make a world of difference. Or you could just give shadows and Assassin's the god bubble. After all we also wear light armor and are super squishy.

Have you tried bursting down a sorc to see how quickly he goes down if the barrier option is not available?

Like I said in another thread, reduce all healing received while Force Barrier is active (and maybe for 5 seconds after it drops). The immunity to EVERYTHING from that ability is enough, hell it even wipes out all debuffs and a well timed use will completely negate any bursts from infinite number of DPS classes (not to mention it also allows some of their CDs to recover). They dont need the ability to drop HoT on themselves, use a god mode and come out of it at frickin 100% HP and force armor/static barrier ready to use.........

If you want to nerf it to undying rage with a purge, then remove the self stun from it and then we'll talk...

It's not like we get to do anything during that immunity. And if we have to use it as a counter to burst, we probably don't have time to spend 2 globals setting up our perfect little hots to h2f during its duration before we pop it.

Hell before Enduring Bastion FB was practically a force taunt in that the entire enemy team would circle around you waiting for the barrier to drop so they could get their free kill. I had to save my grenade to cover an escape after using it, which prevented me from using it as a separate cooldown. That was clearly never intended by Bioware.

If you don't believe me, they gave stealth classes access to utilities that automatically purge on combat stealth--it's pretty clear they don't intend that you should HAVE to save one of your cooldowns just to make another cooldown useful.

I should clarify that I speak as a healer, not a DPS. Madness has long had...separate balance issues. Force Barrier is not one of them. (Mostly rather than spamming blatant dot immunity to cleanses they should have made it like the old lethality dot protection where you can cleanse to mitigate damage but they still get their procs and such from a reapplied dot...you know the counterplay Bioware keeps talking about.)
