What the heck is a low health mage suppose to do? I just see a whole line of sorcs being unviable

Basically what your saying is, sorcerers. Which by definition are offensive magika users, simply sat there and spammed a shield to make them invincible, I mean, a dk for instance, or an Nb, or a templar wouldnt be able to do that.
Basically all the kids that decided spamming 2 buttons to win against 10 players at once are now moaning like kids that they can't do that, that they are now required to actively engage their brains to defend themselves, and have to make an actual choice between defensive and offensive.
Literially the game for sorcerers was, spam shield, then spam crystal frags when it proc for 20k damage, win.
I'm so happy from the salty tears, so so happy!
You want to heal? Play a healer perhaps? Like a templar? Hell look at the npc's for crying out loud! Tanks are DK'S, Assassins are Nb's mages deal huge damage but are weak, templars are healers...

You must be new here.
No, every class can and is supposed to be able to fill any role.
Besides that you are, of course, grossly exaggerating.

Umm. No he is not. Sorcs were broken. It literally was easy mode. I cannot believe sorcs are still denying that. But I am a Patriots fan. So I understand doing anything it takes to dominate.

Allow crits & dots on shields, disable shield stacking, burn that set.

Your ignorant, you can only cast the spell at 4 times before you run out of magicka. So if it's constantly getting taken out the sorcerer is already dead.
No people are angry because shield breaker does IRRESISTIBLE DAMAGE which is pure and UNMITIGATED for a 20 second shield that won't diminish the shield strength either.
Basically it kills the person with the shield faster then never having it on in the first place and that's not counting the group shields other classes use to help there group last longer in PvP either.
Eric Wrobel is punishing players for have a buff that absorbs damage so they won't use it.
That's not balance, that's vindictive hatred and clearly shows he is out of touch and needs to be taken off as lead combat designer.
If his idea of balancing a survival mechanic HE FORCED on LIGHT ARMOR MAGICKA SORCERERS is to reduce its strength in PvP by 50% and then create a set to give irresistible unmitigated from armor and spell resist PURE DAMAGE then he clearly is no longer fit to be employed in game design like an MMO.
Especially one concerning customers continually paying.
All I can figure out is he wants to force magicka sorcerers into stamina sorcerers, the damage is insane and because they can wear medium and heavy armor there survival and damage is far better then magicka can ever give.
Eitherway I am tired of his obviously biased changes against magicka DPS, not just for Sorcerers but other classes who like wearing light armor.
There motto will now be corrected as play as you want, but not cloth.
Mayebe its about the right time for the magical caster sorcerers to start coming to cyrodil with more than 15k HP, relying on their insane "all-out-magicka pool" for defense AND offense at the same time. Every other class and their respective Samina/Magicka builds actually use the other pool as well as some reasonable amount of HP.
My favourite sorc reasonings for nerfing/removing shied breaker set:
"4 (5,6,..) Light attacks killed me" - well, come to do some PvP with more that 14-16k HP, and move while when being attacked, dont stand and wait for yet another attack coming, you know we all have to do that. You play THE CLASS with the best mobility abilities in game.
"Shields are ONLY sorc's defense" - really? you can't roll or block? how so? I can do that on my magicka NB, and maybe invest a little in other stats than going nearly 50k magic
"Sorc doesn't have class heal, we have to rely on healing ward" - last time I checked my one year unplayed sorc he had a skill called Dark Exchange that trades stamina for HP and Magicka and self heal via critical hits with Surge on.
The set is fine. Good players will adapt ... "Best defense is a good offense" is very valid in case of sorcerer class more than enywhere else.
The set is fine.
