That's not true. Sorcs invariably bring that up whenever people point out their unique ability to have a damage shield based on magicka.
sorcs bring it up (and not just sorcs) because it is far easier to spend 1% of your stamina pool to dodge roll and before that dodge roll is done recover your stamina for another one. Not to mention the fact that you can dodge cancel attacks. I have sat back and watched so many people get killed by perma dodge wb spam it is hilarious. So yes, I will bring it up.
Dodge roll can dodge ALL attacks coming at them but a very select few that are meh in damage, whereas a shield stacker has to constantly keep spamming their shields that cost 7-9% PER cast. We take the damage. Both play styles have downsides, but shield stacking has far more downsides to it than perma dodge rolling. People just dont acknowledge that.1 -

"meh in damage"?
so you have never been hit by a flame whip before?
let me tell you, its definitely more than "meh" damage.
i have seen people stack endless shields while putting out absurdly high damage at the same time. Both play styles have both high offense and high defense. There is no balance to them; hence is the problem.Edited by Cody on 10 April 2015 14:450 -

Wouldn't a "nerf damage shields" thread be really a nerf sorcerers thread by default.. you know being sorcs are the only class with a really good damage shield?
templars have a really good damage shield too, so much so i can barely kill one.
DAMAGE SHIELD HAS BEEN SAID!!! IT IS NOW A NERF SORC THREAD!!!:D

so because you havent figured out to weave/alternate defensive and offensive abilities while fighting like others have it must be OP then lols. the balance is there, im sorry you havent figured it out yet.Guild UMBRA Chapter Lead
