    You mean sorc easy mode?

    Those stacked shields make you stronger than a tank.

    When your shield finally get low, you just streak away and reapply. Oh and what about the uncleansable timebomb velocious curse and ranged execute bomb endless fury? Crystal frags that proc for 15k?
    This comment is ridiculously farfetched and over exagerated. Stacked shields make you stronger than a tank? Maybe stronger than a bad tank but a good stamina tank with gear, cp, enchantments and attribues all specced for perma blocking, i don't think so. When your out of resources or stunned you're the complete opposite of a tank and die easily. You can just streak away and reapply? True, but at a hefty cost. Oh no, not velocious curse :open_mouth: 'the time bomb', averages between 4k-10k damage after 3.5 seconds. Thats 3.5 seconds you have to find your block button. 'Endless fury execute bomb' only executes below 20% and deals low damage for an execute, i have never seen it hit for more than 10k. Compare that to the average jesus beam or executioner which deal more damage and execute at a greater percentage of health. Crystal frags that proc for 15k? Only on high damage low sustain builds but wrecking blow, focus aim, jesus beam and maybe some other skills all hit as hard.

    Yes if pets is considered OP, then Sorc has it made. Pets, you know the abilities that need to be on all weapon bars or they desummon.

    If were talking about Bound armor that's basically 60% of entire slots given to something that isn't even worthwhile or effective compared to other classes.

    No i honestly agree wrecking blow needs a nerf it's just there isn't any other moves for a stamina sorcerer to use lol at least nightblades have other options but the ones they choose is op and seriously needs a nerf i know this is a troll post but let's be serious here people know nightblades are op and need something changed to it

    Why play a stam sorc? The class was obviously meant to be magick based

    The class passives and abilities act as a support of sorts. Daedric Protection in Daedric Summoning gives increased health and stamina recovery for having a daedric summoning ability slotted. Unholy Knowledge in Dark Magic decreases magicka and stamina costs. And Expert Mage in Storm Calling increases weapon damage for having sorcerer abilities slotted.

    I'm still working on my stam sorc and am experimenting with my build, but I do think stamina sorc can work.

    Not sure if OP is serious, but I would disagree with the nerfing in general. In the past, I would agree with nerfing the nightblade, but only when I played as a nightblade myself did I understand why they need to hit hard with SA or be able to go into stealth. I had a hard time as a low level since I am very vulnerable without any good sustain, and getting used to having big chunks of my HP disappear was something I had to get used to.

    @TheRubiksCube well my fellow guildmate you do know this was all when there were soft caps so you could run hybrid builds now without them you need go dump everything into one resource making stam sorcs useless because their is no cap on magic so no need to use stam

    This is a mostly L2P issue, many of you may not acknowledge this but the people on here referring to that dreaded abbreviation were once where you are today: frustrated. They know from experience that there is only one way to turn that around: practice, practice, practice.

    I would highly recommend the next time you get ganked by a NB or any class for that matter, instead of coming on here to whine, message the person who ganked you and ask them if they would like to duel so that you can practice, 80% of people I have done this with have been more than happy to, I mean it benefits them as well. The Arena and Arboretuem areas are great places because you can respawn fairly close to each other; invite them to chat, you'll learn alot, they may even give you some really great advice and no matter how many times you die keep getting up and going out there. I guarantee not only will you become a better player but you'll realize that alot of the whining you are reading about on here is a bit overblown. Im not saying your gonna win every fight after that but you'll definitely win more. YES, there are some glaring imbalances that currently exist among the classes in this game, but there are also a *** load of lazy people that will continue to be bad because they don't practice enough and no, running around in a mindless zerg isnt practice. So give it a try, you have nothing to lose. Let no man forget how menacing we are, we are lions! Do you know what's waiting beyond that beach? Player Tears! Take it! It's yours!

    Stam Nbs tend to use SA more than WB as SA is instant and does (arguably) better damage. And not every player are gods like others. Im decent player on console and sometimes i can kill Dks, and Nbs, in sec and other times i screw up myself and end up dying. To be good you must practice. WB is easily avoided with snares, cc, dodging, and stuns. People often forget that the game has ways to prevent being attack. Blur, Evasion, Wards, Mitigation from skills or CP.

    And if anything should be nerf it is the idiot-icy of no-skill wimps who only wish to make the lives of other decent players hell cause they are physically unable of learning.

    i find it curious that most people that tell others to L2P never give advice of their own besides "dueling". what if that player is not built for dueling? I learned my class thru normal PvP, I have dueled maybe 3 times total in the last two years. Maybe instead of giving the generic "L2P" response, you can give some actual advice?

    I have been more wrecking Blowed by Dk's than NB's... lol..

    most stamblades use Surprise attack, which is honestly superior. it is instant, more accurate and easier to use, and costs less and is more manageable.

    No Nb aren't OP. they are the squisiest class with a decent burst.
    Yo what about stam sorc? They basically have the same amount of protection but stam sorc can't even stealth. Not using this argument to nerf NBs by the way, I just feel like stam sorcs could use a buff in areas.

    poor stam sorcs. lol. I tried one, and deleted her soon afterwards. Great damage, but almost zero protection or sustainability.
