Bucket list for solo Pet Sorc...

SirLeeMinion

With the changes to pets and shields, it appears that challenging solo content may soon be out of reach for pet sorcs. So, I've been trying to enjoy the good times for a few more days before moth-balling this toon and dusting off a stamblade or the like.

Part I: What are your suggestions and challenges suitable for a solo, mid-tier sorc player to attempt before the hammer falls? Any thoughts of other content that could belong on the bucket list? I'm looking mostly for experiences that will fit the: "I remember when you could do.... on a pet sorc" This is the list I'm working on (not completed, mind you, just working on):

Veteran Maelstrom Arena (of course)
Craglorn world boss of choice
Craglorn celestial rift
Wrothgar world boss
Morrowind world boss
Assorted normal, non DLC dungeons
Normal City of Ash II (putting dungeons in due to taunt loss, maybe they don't belong... )
Vet Fungal Grotto I



Part II: What's one of your top solo Sorc achievements or memories? Finishing VMA was likely mine. Pet-sorc was my first clear. I was running like mad, pushing who knows what keys in an effort to get away from some mob. Resources were gone, health was steadily dropping, and suddenly it was over. The boss died to a DoT, or maybe a pet, and I didn't even see it. Good times!

Single bar pet is needed now. Even if just the matriach and clannfear. (heal morphs)

- Pet sorc healers can't operate easily with the lack of OL bar space post patch
- clannfear might be a viable option not to run restro back bar (PvP)

I ran pets on my alt from launch when they weren't cool. They were a bigger joke than Argonians but tables turned when they hit the DPS dummy post scamp buff. It's cool they fixing mechanics to be able to run them but it's time for single bar now.

If you haven't run vMA, or aren't all that good at it yet even after a few clears, you best get to farming the heck out of it before nerfmire drops.

That place is going suck hard for those who are in that beginner area of still working on a leaderboard clear and its going to suck even way harder for total noobs.

get it done while you can.

Yeah, do vMA and get the weapons NOW, because on PTS (see video posted today on PTS magsorc feedback thread) pets die so much that you take more time to resummon them than doing the content itself.

this is not serious, right?

r u saying u cant do the stuff on the list on magsorc after patch, but will still be able to do it on your stamblade?

I really hope its going to be not as awfull as it looks now or maybe get few changes in last week to make it better.
But i also think i am being very naive for even hoping so much, i also started gearing up my nightblade already.

Really dissapponted because i am so close to vma finish just need bit more time to get passed crystal phase but even just the knowledge of the deadline approaching makes me not want to play much.

It sounds bit overly dramatic i know but i would be delighted if murkmire got postponed lol, gg
