No cp bgs, heavy or medium armor?

Aliyavana

What is most beneficial to run on a stam sorc no cp? I plan to run master axes, automatons to buff bleeds, and sloads in either heavy or medium for maximum lols with the possibility of procing implosion with all those dots.

Probably medium so you can run shuffle for even more lols (plus further bleed buff).

Was running heavy on mine but have been meaning to swap out for medium and try it for myself.

Run Heavy since you're a stam sorc you'll be fine with zero sustain CP

im not running cp at all. I am wondering if in no cp medium is worth it since it will buff my damage

From a Stam DKs perspective (since that's the only stam related class I've got) I'd use Heavy just because I could take more damage and dole it out. Non CP isn't a burn game unless you can sustain it & in BG it'll be best to use heavy especially if you use a set like duroks or fasalla (with reverb somewhere in play).

You're a stam sorc so you got dark deal as your sustain and the ability you stole from us i.e hurricane; those two abilities will be something that'll keep you afloat in BG.

My DW/Bow stam sorc uses 5 medium and 2 heavy (monster set) in BGs. Shuffle + Ball of Lightning to get out of trouble. Works like a charm!

Depends on play style & the need to be tanky or not. I run 5 medium 2 heavy on my stamsorc personally since I'd rather have the extra DPS and avoid damage rather than just eat it, but thats probably 'coz i run a NB main

You could swap this around and run 5 heavy 2 medium if you'd rather eat the damage and stand-and-bang them.

Since you are stacking cheese I recommend adding troll king on top. Your armor weight won't really make a difference anymore, nor your skill as a player.

Imo shuffle is trash, forward momentum is much better for snare immunity so might as well go heavy for mitigation. In CP I prefer medium on my stam sorc but no CP go heavy I think. There’s just so many snares. And definitely since you’re letting your gear do the damage go heavy. If you have a healer with you go skoria if you really wanna lay it on, if not go troll king. Honestly everyone else is gonna be using the cheesiest *** they can find or running in a premade group so just go for it.

This is a very unhelpful comment. If set combinations are overperforming, take it up with the devs. A so-called “cheese” combo in the hands of a skilled player will be far more effective than the same combo in the hands of an unskilled player.
