In the rotation of the dps is used less, but all classes are able to support the magicka? or stamina?
About me i had some problems with the sorcerer magicka and with the dk stamina, but maybe just a question of habits that i have to change.
For you instead?

    All classes can sustain for magicka and stamina by balancing abilities with heavy attacks.
    It's like a diet, resources in needs to match resources out. It's entirely up to you how you manage that.

    As a magicka Sorc you're actually in a unique position to benefit from a heavy attack build, more than most I'd say, thanks to Tri Focus and Energized passives with a lightning staff. This gives you superior AOE and sustain simultaneously.
    Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.

    I like my heavy attacks. Light attack weaving on my connection is painfull

    I’m not really sure I understand the question, but heavy attacks are important to me to regenerate my resources where they’re being heavily taxed. If my passive regen isn’t strong enough and I need a bit more, I’ll throw out a heavy attack.

    Light attacks meanwhile are more for short and simple, quick and effective single target damage. Personally I find heavy attacks more useful than light attacks.

    I hope that helps.

    My problem is how illogical this is. You want an attack that has a longer wind up to do less damage over-time whereas an attack with significantly shorter wind up, does more damage over-time.

    The problem with this system as well is that it vastly looks at PC players rather than console/both. Light attack/consistent weaving is easier on the PC in-comparison to consoles but w/e.

    Resources aren't an issue when your regen is higher than your usage...

    I use mag sorc and I do use Heavy Attack in my rotation (not that I can bar swap after summerset).

    The thing is that the heavy attack disappears... IT DOES NOT SHOW ANIMATION NOR GIVE RESOURCES BACK, all my character does is stand in the heavy attach "pose" and nothing, have to stop attack and re attack with heavy up to 3 times before it actually fires off.

    So to recap = as game is now on PS4 = no rotation to much LAG, no bar swapping because LAG, no vet contend of any kind due to to much LAG. Its now LAGGING because of LAG...

    I can however have a decent fight with a mud crab (maybe because I do not get to do a full rotation, crab dies with second ability used) but when his buddy comes the LAG follows and no more BAR swap...
