    This is nonsense. Did you EVER play a Sorc?
    Using 2 pets, already 4 slots of 10 are gone.
    With an additional 3 shields, only 3 slots would be available for everything else.
    This does not work at all. Even only 2 shields do not leave enough slots with 2 pets.
    For effective gameplay with 2 pets, a Sorc can only use 1 shield.

    Therefore, having to double-slot pets for creating a "zoo" does not allow shield stacking.
    At least not if you want to kill anybody - because shields will not do that...
    A pet zoo combined with shield stacking is only good enough for trolling, not for killing...

    I have about 22k health, 24k resistance, and 38k magicka. I’m a TANK in PvP. It takes s lot of people to kill me. The thing is to stack Hardened ward, Annulment and Healing ward. With this you should have high defense and slot Panacea.

    Im sorry.. but why are you stacking healing ward? Literally a waste of magicka unless you are low health...and even then its terrible unless you run brp resto.

    they feel bad, I have at 2.6k crit resist and 15k resist which should be adequate(tell me if I'm wrong) . seems like other chars do so much damage like I see guys spam cliff racer for 7.5k damage per shot or surprise attack does the same for measly 2k stam.12.5k hardened ward shields are just gone in a blink seems you have to continually cycle shield . and then when it comes to flame reach which it seems people can just spam with master weapon and sorc cant dodge that many times and ball doesn't work for that which makes it so hard to add a modicum of pressure. on top of that you have build in damage and sustain. I've no idea how people make sorc effective put a pet on the bar then you loose two slots makes combat very boring. sorc needs something else as its a mere shadow of its former glorious self.

    15k resistances are really low. I run 11k pen on my mDK, and my flex spot is sometimes occupied by ele drain. That would mean you have no effective resistances against my build. Add to that 80% crit damage, and that means I'm dealing true damage to you with 38% crit modifier.

    problem is pet sorc is over preforming and non pet is barely preforming. Also ps4 na. Ya the pet sorcs are annoying (even on your own team). Non pet is doing pretty bad though and has been for a long time. Obviously havent played the new expansion so idk if anything has changed but non pet sorc on wrathstone could use a sustain up at the very least.
