I use stat-based sets in the game (I know, archaic and underpowered) so I'm not among those who used certain procs which became a problem when combined with sorc skills. I honestly feel like I'm being punished with the Crystal Weapon nerf for someone else's decisions. I wear Titanborn and Wretch Vitality. It's bad enough that light and heavy attack damage is decreasing but with crystal weapon being nerfed, I am seriously concerned about my ability to do damage. I've attached below random footage of me playing in battle grounds to show how I play. You can see that I'm not the strongest player on the field. Now imagine how much worse I'll be with these nerfs.

✭✭It's time for an update. I have to say that this character feels absolutely HORRIBLE now. I don't know if it's the light attack nerfs or if it's Mara's Balm but I used to be able to chunk people with Curse + Crystal Weapon. Now, I'm barely seeing health bars move. I'm really sad because i loved this character. I have probably one (maybe 2) kills in about six BG matches with this character SINCE I STARTED COUNTING the number of matches. Below is just game play of my most recent match with no commentary. I didn't pick any clip in particular, just my most recent match.

✭Hey you're an Xbox right? I ran a dungeon with you a week or two ago. I remember because I've always thought your name was cool. I was fake tanking but with a taunt. I remember thinking I better do a good job or I won't be able to talk crap in those topics anymore.
Lol okay, that's all, not gonna fanboy you anymore.
Unfortunately I gotta kinda disagree with your plight here. The stat based shield sorc has been dead for a while now, not because of any specific nerfs but just kinda because the game went a different direction. And now yes its gotten even worse and sorcs are widely acknowledged as struggling in PvP.
It sucks and I hope they get buffed. But savage werewolf wasn't the only reason why crystal weapon was over performing. And honestly, don't you have another toon you could play for a while? The PvP echelon gets mixed up constantly... It just kinds is what it is. Sometimes a class you really like falls out of favor and that sucks, but don't you think it keeps things interesting in the long run?0 -
Bowsorc was overperforming on pure stats too @StarOfElyon. If you used Kinras instead of Savage Werewolf your damage output wouldn’t be too different than Savage Werewolf. Crystal Weapon had ridiculous damage, it was about 35% of your damage compares to the 20% now on bowsorc. So the nerf was justified.
It might have been slightly overnerfed, in my opinion stamsorc could use a slight increase in damage again, specificly on Bound Armaments. The main problem is that you play a melee stamsorc which just isn’t the current design of stamsorc which is build around kiting so obviously you will get different results.Stamina Sorcerer Main, guiding the decrepit melee fans to achieve basedness and become a bowsorc.

I have other classes, I just don't have other sorcs. I'm still playing it now trying out different sets. Still sticking with stat based sets though.0
