Funny part is, I have a full magic DK that can do more damage with spells than my v10 Sorcerer using crystal shard.
Not only are the DK spells instant cast (Crystal shard 1,5 seconds) they cost less to activate and can actually be spammed when combined with warlock set. (Lava whip ftw) Only downside is the range limitation, but a DK can pull targets towards them using the chain.
My full magica DK started to out damage my v10 sorcerer at around level 40, making me regret starting out with the sorc, as the DK is obviously more effective in terms of damage and leveling speed.

Elemental Drain only works for Cold/Fire/Frost, Crystal Shards is Magic so it shouldn`t benefit from that.
There are other plenty ways to prevent magicka problems:
1. Gear - Seducer set for example, reduce the cost of a spell with 3% + magicka glyphs and cost reduction jewels (im V7 now, 1 piece gives me 17 reduction, 3 together is 51 already and it's pretty much!)
2. Abilities - not just equilibrium gives you magicka. The Overload ultimate after morphing restores 75 magicka after every light/heavy attack. Dark exchange: 3 sec casting but it restores 1200 magicka + health!
3. Races - choose the fitting race for a pure mage.
And it's just a few stuff from the plenty what exist for magicka problems, you just need to take care about your attacks and the rotation.

Yeah good point, I just checked. You should still get a tick from light attacks.

You use the resto staff for dps sorcs... for the 10% damage passive:p It does magic damage too, not elemental.

Compare this to a melee who can just keep one button pressed and do heavy attacks until the server goes down. Or to a NB who loses 10% damage(the 22% part is spell power, it is only a 10% damage loss for abilities) and has infinite resources or a DK who has spells costing 1/3 of what the Sorc ones cost and you will see the problem.

Yeah... can't tell if this is a troll or not.
Man if you really think Nightblades have it easier because we can spam heavy attacks (lol?)... well, get a clue, really.
There are only two competitive classes in this game and you are playing one of them.
If you cant manage your magicka with a sorcerer i dont know what to say... but it sounds like a matter of l2p.

Yeah... can't really take him seriously when he uses a NB for his argument.

The NB is doing 700+ dps... the Sorc CS spam does 500.... now do you take it seriously?
EDIT: When the NB gets fixed the gap will be even bigger...
