I can get by the det, curse, and frag bs, and even the god damn shields. but all that while camping in the mines is ridiculous. I'm playing Stam sorc rn, anybody have suggestions on how to get around that?

    Throw caltrops on the mines. Aside from that you just have to lead them out of the mines by making them impatient. Or stack cp into Hardy and suck up the damage. You could also use a bow. Mines are the best defense sorcs have against high damage melee builds.

    Edit: stam sorcs are still sub-par/tricky to play. As a magicka sorc I haven't found a stam sorc I should be wary of. Stemplars on the other hand are tricky for me when played well. Also was "frag bs" really neccessary? -_-

    Stand near the mines and spam steel tornado?
    Pull him out by getting out of range?
    Doesn't wb have a larger range?
    Only set off 1 or 2? Hold block!
    Cast vigor and rally before setting a couple off helps too.
    Throw rocks?

    Rolling through them sets them off and doesn't mitigate any of the damage. Streaking through them also sets them off. Blocking and only setting one or two off is probably the most effective thing to do.

    This is good advice.
