How do I spec an "easy" Sorc?

Cazzy

So my Erbs Palsy is getting the better of me and I'm finding certain rotations literally painful on my arm. I was told a pet Sorc would be good for me but I can't find anywhere that explains how to spec it. What skills/morphs do I need? Where should my CP go? What amount of dps can they hit?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Edit: PvE trials, mostly!

Pet sorc won't be easy on your hands. Yes you will have 2 pet toggle skills on each bar, but you still need to shield stack to survive, and that will require frequent bar swapping. I'd say the easiest on your hands will be a sniper NB - used snipe as the main damaging skill and - use cloak to retreat.

Don't bother with two pets. Just use the familiar. Front bar use inner light ( requires no button pushing), ward (put ward on easiest button for you to press as it will be most used), daedric prey, bound aegis (also required no button mashing), and familiar. Back bar use power surge (only need to use every 33 seconds), liquid lightning, blockade, inner light and familiar. You can do 2 heavy attacks every rotaion to help with not moving hands so much. Basically just use attacks when you can. With this build you can run necropotence with destruction mastery and just go around heavy attacking and using ward to complete almost anything.

have you tried alcasts pet sorc build?

they can do between 20k and 40k on a test dummy - depending on your ability to do a rotation

PvE, mostly. Sorry, I should have said! I enjoy doing trials (currently in a prog group for vCR) and want to be effectively useful, it's just a very difficult balance with my disability.

I adore my Magblade but her rotation is just too much for me

He's normally my go-to guide for builds but I wasn't sure if his pet sorc build would be rotation friendly for me. I'll definitely give it a go, though!

I can do 20k on my pet sorc easy by using just 3 skills and light attack weaving.

On my front bar I have lightning splash, blockade, volatile familiar, Flappy thing, inner light.
On my back bar I have power surge, crushing shock or daedric prey and hardened ward, Flappy thing, inner light.

Light attack, lightning splash, light attack, blockade, light attack, volatile familiar, heavy attack. Rinse and repeat.

Caveat: I live in New Zealand and deal with a latency of 250 on a good day.

If you haven't already guessed I don't personally like or use the flappy thing but it can be useful for better dps.

Mine's easy and packs a solid burst heal for others.

Bar 1: Empowered ward, blockade, Lightning splash, Twilight Matriarch, Inner Light.
Bar 2: Surge, Boundless Storm, EleDrain, Twilight Matriarch, Inner Light.

Only go to back bar every 23 seconds or so to refresh 3 skills. Buff up, put up ward & AoEs and spam heavy attacks in between.

Necrox5 + JulianosX5 + monster of your choice.

I'm not that skilled and can break 20k with her. More importantly to me is that she is very tanky and packs a strong heal for others.

May not be exactly what you're looking for as you won't pull amazing numbers with it, but this build might help with what you need.

Easiest magsorc build I've ever used.

I explain skills, CP, stats, gear, rotation or lack there of. Never need to bar swap with this build.

edit*

If nothing else it at least gives you a bit of an idea of how to go about it.
