Sorc seems like an overall better dps class than templar.

The skills and passives seem more directed towards higher damage.

Am I wrong?

    I think top tier pve dps is magblade. There was a time when magsorcs were the top dog. However, I think if you play well you can be very close to the top class with any other class.
    Gulp down a detection pot, find a sneaky little cloaking Nightblade, murder them in cold blood. One of the finest pleasures of life.

    They’re similar in terms of kit and output. Both magsorc and magplar are in a pretty good spot atm.

    Do you have any idea how PvE has *** over magblades in PvP? Cost increase to swallow soul, losing minor vitality, getting the heal nerfed, refreshing path losing the damage component, etc. all because magblade dps was "healing too well while doing too high DPS."

    PVE complaints also ruin it for PVP people too.

    pet sorc has easiest possible static rotaion with heavy attack, so infinite sustain with blue food, no atro mundus, no recovery glyphs. All damage is AoE, ton of health (pet passive and blue food), reduced ulti cost, super strong burst heal and selfheals, especially if you go Necro + Sorrow. Crafty Alfiq viable too this days and with Horn you pretty much end by having 70k magicka pool :trollface:

    45k+ dps with just 4 skills in rotation, full self buff. It's cuz pets have very strong passive damage. If you do parse with just Daedric Prey and pets (no light/heavy, no other skills, nothing, just pets basic attack and Prey), you will see about 13-14k DPS. You almost literally do nothing and get 14k dps.

    Like always if got to say on DPS:

    1-Nightblade
    2-Warden (Stamina for godsake)
    3-Sorcerer

    But the update is coming, this can change

    Magplar certainly puts the magsorc baby in the corner (non-pet), but shhhh --- don't tell everyone.

    PvPers will always whine, and PvEers will always get the shaft because of it.

    Asking for balance between classes and not wanting to get killed by something too powerful isn't whining.
