Frankly... You basically have to run Crushing Weapon because it is cheaper. Sustain is very hard on Stam Sorc, it's currently, by far the worst Stamina class when it comes to sustain (even on PTS). Its the only class to run Recovery Food + Ravager in order to have decent sustain (and health pool), whereas all the others can run Max Resource Food + Berserking Warrior and be perfectly fine.
Assuming you're weaving light attacks adequately, Crushing. Crushing is cheaper, deals more damage, heals you, adds a damage shield on that bar when blocking, grants a small source of damage through Spell Orb, and is much smoother to weave, making it function better as a spammable.
Personally, I use Shrouded, as while Crushing is better, I find it a little awkward to use due to the delayed nature of the damage. On paper, it functions very similar to other spammables, only the damage is shifted to the next light attack, but in practice, it just messes with my mind. I also value the cleave damage of Shrouded, and Shrouded can be weaved with heavy attacks, while Crushing cannot.

I am not asking if it is better then the options already discussed in this thread, I am asking what flurry would need to be used. Is this a hard concept?

It's a dps loss over the other skills listed. The only way flurry will make a comeback would be buffing the VMA dw weapons or overtuning flurry in a future update.
It does however work well in draining perma block tanks in PvP of their stamina.

Okay. So just uping the damage? Is that the only solution? How about they lower hidden blades damage, since it is supposed to be a buff/ultilie skill, not a dps.

No thanks, flurry can either go for healing or more dmg, it's single target and fits within the 1sec gcd, the reason it isn't used is because of cp. On paper rapid strikes does more dmg then flying blade for single target and flying blade is the dmg morph, it's also cheaper and hits 5 times which helps proc set procs and the sorc implosion passive. The problem is cp doesn't effect the +300% hit at the end of flurry/rapid strikes and it doesn't count as "Melee dmg" for sets like ravager and selene.
Fix the bugs and the skill will be better to use again. I use rapid strikes in battlegrounds, there is no cp so it works great.
Crushing weapon is the dumbest skill in the game. It should be removed. The dev who thought it up needs to be knocked across the head. The animation is cancerous and anything buffing light attacks is downright 100 percent stupid. Literally the worse thing EVER implemented in this game. I've never asked for anything to be nerfed and this skill shouldn't be, it should be removed from the game.
