    I would favor that if you are out of combat for longer than a minute, the shield gets a duration of 20 seconds.
    "I still do not understand why I followed the advice of Captain Rana to bring the villagers of Bleakrock into safety. We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    Sure, I wouldn't consider magicka sorcs the strongest build atm, but I don't see how a longer shield duration would help them. Longer shields just allow you to be more lazy in easy fights, but they don't increase your damage output and they don't increase your survivability when you are actually taking a lot of damage within a short time.

    You forgot the balance part:

    On the triple duration: make the shields critable.
    On the double duration: make shields non-stackable (major/minor system)
    On the "keep shields the same": make dark deal an instant cast ability, so you don't need them.

    All of these options are viable. Nobody want to go back to the OP triple stack mess we had before.

    The problem with this pole is the fact that most people and i say most who choose" Do nothing with Sorcerer shields, there fine." do not play mage just have a look at the people who voted look at their other comments and you will see their posts are on "my templer build" , "my dk build" NB skills" ect they don't play mages as we do and they want us to stay weak and thus voting to get us nerfed these are the same people who probably cried to get us nerferd in first place cos and will keep on asking to get other classes nerferd when they get killed. and i hope if dev looks at this pole they will know who is voting.

    And of course all other Dk,Temo,Nb do not wish us to have shields as before we were challenge for them and now we are well... not existent.

    I wish there was a choise in this forum that shows your character and maybe time you played with ect thus removing trolls from poles and we can call them out on it no more hiding and trolling other classes.

    On the WoW forum the trolls simply display a level 1 troll as their forum display character ;)

    LOL holosoul lv1 troll that's funny

    but seriously yhea that's the problem.

    I am thinking and figuring out to make a stamsorc with medium armor twin swords ect but not enough stam ability and we loose allot of passives.



    Its a shame as right now my mage is placed on the shelf untill things change or we get to figure things out and ive been in a way forced to play with magtemp which im starting to like allot jabs jabs jabs so maybe that is the answer , the population of mages has decreased now days when i see one streaking its like seeing a unicorn

    This is how i fell now every time i see a mage.


    child's voice " grandpa grandpa i think ive seen a mage! "
    in old mans voice " They say seeing one is bound to give you good luck and fortune , see my little grandson back in my day mages were roaming freely you would see then everywhere with their lighting lingering and electricity snapping around their body they looked proud and magnificent"
    child's voice " what happen granddad ?
    grand dad " they went extinct... ALL the other races were jealous of mages ability and wished to have it for them self's they wanted to make mages weak , so they all got together and started to pray to the GODS and god Wrobel responded he had the most hatred for mages he heard their prays and placed a damnation on all mages making them weak making mages to be formal shadow of them selfs.
    child's voice " thats horrible "
    grand dad " all is well... as their joy did not last for long seeing how they made mages weak , blinded by greed and lust of power they turned against each other and separately started praying to god Wrobel to make other race more weaker then theirs. They say few mages who have barley survived are slowly working in secret and waiting for their day to take their revenge.

    I feel that sorcerer shields were fine how they were before. Perhaps they could have prevented the shield stacking issue that everyone complained about by allowing only one shield at a time or something... Many of my friends have a sorcerer as their main and it makes me sad that they are not enjoying the game anymore because of all of the changes to their class.They were fine how they were before, no?

    I don't have much of a problem with my shields - but it's an unnessecary change and doesn't address the actual issues of shieldstacking and versatility.
