Sooo the frags and overload..

I’m not sure what you have against the sorc but these frags are worthless lol ty for the extra damage buuuut they are worse now than ever. The animation alone creates lag time between your next skill and you can’t cancel it. Basically like using ele weapon where before it was instantaneous. Kinda messes up the rotation. Not a huge deal but overload, possibly the only thing that could have saved the sorc this patch is worthless. You removed the “world cooldown”, it’s like pulling teeth trying to weave that clunky ultimate. As it stands now, the difference in DPS vs any other is beyond acceptable in PVE. Luckily I’m prepared to play another dps class but I really wanted the sorc to have a chance and now.. it’s dead.. RIP trials dps sorc

The lose of 3rd bar killed Mag sorc in PvP for me. It was nice and love using last night.

I should have appreciated it a little more

I know the feels.. I know the feels, ZoS, you’re tearing this family apart!!!

I switched to stamsorc after that hit the PTS because imo it killed magsorc. Not sure how much "better" stamsorc technically is, but It's certainly a lot more fun for me. The magsorc was boring by comparison.

I do see a lot less staff sorcs running around now. Plus I don't think I've seen an overload lightning ball since the patch either.

Kinda sad, but that's mmos. At some point they'll be king again and nightblades will be bottom. It's all cyclical.

Everything on magsorc is slow AF. People will deny it up and down, but it is sub-par class spec in PvP now. Cast times and rotation feel so debilitating, and when I go up against any stam build, especially NBs, my god the speed gap between the two is not even in the ballpark of comparison.

I play a stamblade sometimes, and as long as I melee a magsorc, and keep the distance tight, I will obliterate them in under 2 seconds. Casting and animation times have forced us to think about our fight 5 seconds before entering it. In most fights I am ranged from someone, and in the time it takes to spin up all my buffs, and fire off 1 shot, most stam builds have already closed the gap, and have initiated a huge amount of damage up front. I can't pull away fast enough, heal fast enough, or get off any substantial damage because of the slowness of a ruined class type.

ZOS and its players brag about how it's the only MMORPG that doesn't utilize cool-downs, and that just straight up BS, because cool-downs are basically what magsorcs have to put up with in contrast to other builds that are not being hindered by time.
