Stamina Sorc buff (Idea)

this idea was sparked by the recent hint at a stam upgrade for sorc but i find zeni's to be... bad...
as someone who has played a stamina based sorc since the first stamina buff and made a guide on it (for DW). this is barely going to make a difference. we need an instant damage melee range ability. and an initiation that works in stealth. otherwise we are pressured into magicka builds by nature.
my solution is make streak into a new ability morph, one that works in stealth and increases next melee abilities damage by 20%. and also changing the AoE morph of shards to a melee "slam punch" that has AoE damage but melee range, can still stun.

    Stamina doesn't just mean melee, consider the bow users too.

    Personally I think encase should have a stamina morph, that ability has been super useful as an archer for rooting enemies and keeping them at a distance.

    Conjured ward could use a stamina morph as well, and the daedric summons should scale to your highest stat (weapon or spell damage) to be equally useful to all builds.

    hadn't really considered bows since they have some pretty decent stamina abilities that synergize with things like frags and encase so gives them a pretty viable setup

    If I had to choose only ONE Sorc ability to have a stamina morph, it would be Conjured Ward. It's THAT important... at least until they get rid of the horrible cooldown on Surge heals!

    Stam sorcs need morphs for bolt, ward, and a long range stamina attack to be on par with other sorcs.

    and what of the melee range stam sorcs? we currently lack any form of stam instant for close range while range ha many tools that can support sorc

    They could make a crystal fragments or mage's fury morph for a sorcerer stamina instant nuke in between weaving.

    Also, the damn summons should scale off weapon or spell damage, whichever one's higher so an entire sorcerer tree isn't utterly useless.

    every skill should have 1 option for magika and 1 for stamina! imagine a stamina sorc :smiley: thats a paradox.

    @dsalter actually its the other way around.

    Sorcs only have bow abilities for range stamina (or the dual wield throwing weapon skill)

    They have magicka range skills that are both weapon and non-weapon dependant
    They have 3 different weapon based close range stamina ability trees.

    They do lack both a long range and short range non weapon based stamina ability, but a long range stamina ability could be used in short range situations, and sorcs by nature tend to be long range fighters.

    Hence the higher priority of a long range Stam ability over a short range.


    And sidebar if you want a close range nuke, basically the entire 2 hand tree fills that void.
