Power Surge

Okay, who's bright idea was it to take away the healing Power Surge provided for MagSorcs? The stamina morph didn't even get touched it looks like. Even as a healer the skill would still suck... Now we have, like, nothing but the Twilight Matriarch or Dark Conversion for self-heals. I hate using a pet and I have *** for stamina (of course). It's been my main character since I started this game. I'm mainly a solo player except for occasional trials/dungeons.

Sorry, I'm just venting about my hate for this unnecessary nerf. It's the most useless skill ever now.

    They changed Crit Surge to also give Major Sorcery, so new Crit Surge is basically old Power Surge, with even more healing.

    Magsorc has been buffed in this regard. Surge and BOTH morphs now grant spell &&& weapon damage buffs. So there is no "stam morph" and you can now use Critical Surge, which heals for more than Power Surge used to

    Ohh, I just checked. I was thinking Critical Surge was the stamina morph... I swore it was.

    I wouldn't have known if I didn't post this; I was oblivious to the other morph. Thank you. 😭

    Power surge is very solid healing morph, used it many time in trials and it was top healing skill on my combat metric, it was doing around 25% of all healing. I still think that it needs cooldown of 2 secs instead of 3 secs.

    I felt exactly the same and commented as such at the time.

    However I just bit the bullet and run the stam moph even on my magsorc. Its still procing a ton of healing and helps keep me alive.

    I actually love Power Surge paired up with Radiating Regeneration in BG's. With Radiating Regen on 3-4 people, you're almost guaranteed to be critting every second thus getting Surge procs on cooldown. And it heals everyone within 28m which is a pretty huge range. If you happen to be wearing Troll King or Earthgore.. That's a pretty nice safety net you're passively providing for your team, while still being able to put out a lot of offensive pressure.

    Crit Surge USED to be the morph used by stamina types. Now a days though, Crit Surge is universal for both stam and mag and Power Surge is supposed to be some tool for Sorc healers...... LULZ
