    I'm shocked @Xsorus is such a big fan of putting his incompetence on display over and over again.

    Running away is a legit form of defence.

    Because both dodging and fearing do such insane amounts of damage...

    So does the BE. Nice that you understand this thread is about damage ;) im curious why didnt you noticed part about tanking, it deals also looot of damage eh? But no, perma roll dodge and fear are perfectly fine, arent they?

    Don't see anyone complain that they are Bolt Escaped to death. No clue what you mean about tanks. I've always stated that dodgetrolling is broken and I've also always stated that Fear is fine, but it's CC in general that is broken.

    On top of that, I'm a Magicka build! Now what!?

    Be needs a stamina morph, not a nerf bat. Just getting my two cents in.

    No sorcerer would hold block while bolting. Even if it were possible, it would get him killed because block costs drain stamina on a sorc faster than anything else. But hey, let other people tell you what they "think" they see from friendly sorcs. Don't take it from us who actually rank a and play the class. [/quote]

    It is possible to block-cast bolt, and is actually a good idea in some situations, like when you're streaking someone charging you. But you're right in that it's not usually a good idea to hold block as a sorc. I've stopped animation cancelling when swarmed cos it drains too much stamina. But just to clarify; it is possible to hold block while streaking, and it is a good idea sometimes.

    It can be useful in some situations but in my experience it works better to dodge roll in between BEs. The problem with blocking is that they can charge in to you every time you BE, dodge rolling usually prevents them from charging in.
