It’s not honest to ignore the fact that sorcs are still strong in many other aspects of the game.

Shields will be worthless defense under any kind of pressure from someone who isn't a r3tard. Extremely aids cast time, if you get interrupted you take more damage (exploiter), being critable outweighs them having armor by far, and apparently enchants now proc easier on them or something (wasn't really aware of enchant/shield interactions being different from enchant/health interactions). Sorcs have weak healing (pets can die, have a cast time to summon, and are double barred on already strangled bars and are just stupid), and unlike other classes have no efficient cleanses, reflects, no cloak obviously, or HoTs. Also no reliable way to buff what heals we do have. Defile will be stronger than ever with indirect buff from shield nerf and the new broken "Soldier of Anguish" set. If you can't shield, can barely heal, and can't dodge (mag life) gl surviving any kind of pressure.
Sorcs still have incredible time delayed high damage. Sorcs still have incredible mobility with streak and control with runes and mines. The changes to overload allow for all sorts of new and interesting playstyles.
Yes. You can still use shields for mitigation. You just need to pick your spots. You won’t be able to shield stack at will AND apply massive damage at the same time. You either pick to be on offensive rotation OR defensive rotation.
Sorcs are still strong and very good in pvp AND pve. Take a deep breath.

Medium armor users received a urine odor-smelling attempt to changes.
Light armor users got straight pissed on.

Every single thing you said is false, I mean every single thing.
That should be an achivement or something.

These comments are not accurate. Mag Sorcs are incredibly powerful on both PvP and PVE. Their kit is one of the most complete out of all the classes. Good options for range dps, aoe dps, single target dps, mitigation and tankiness in the form of shields and control with runes and mines, Mobility in the form of streak. Sorcs complete VMA with one skill bar all the time. They are arguably the best class to solo with in PvP. Incredibly powerful.
