Sorcs have an unfair advantage.

Crystal shards, but you removed, counters like reflective scales.
Bolt escape, but you removed counters like immovable.
encase, can not be blocked.
Ruin prison, can not be blocked.
4 advantages you have give Sorcs, and removed counters to these attacks, please explain to me. why you feel Sorcs should have this advantage while you nurf everyone else?
I never though the game was to be dictated, on what race, or skill line you had to play to win. Do understand I am speaking about PVP, non CP.
The game had been balanced over the past 7 years, and in one fail swoop you come in and disrupt everything instead of focusing on the op skills.
I will never agree to what has been done to your customer base. they have trained, and used their skills for years, and all of a sudden somebody has the bright idea to turn everything up side down. Zos had broken armor sets, broken weapons, created so many bugs, and problems you can't count them all. not to mention pissed off a lot of people.
I do not agree with your common core, [snip] approach to balance, because there is no balance, and the entire idea was stupid, plain, and simple.

    Each class has their own special advantages, if you play well, you can counter Sorc easily. You can ask someone (like me) how to do, it's not a problem.

    As a stamplar, I’m greatly weakened by my javelin being nerfed to something like 10 feet, while sorcs can hammer me from the upper decks of keeps when I’m sieging at maximum range. That’s not balanced.

    [snip] every other skill line is limited, except Sorcs. they have 4 or more major perks in their skill line. these patches where about balance not being a tank to counter a Sorc. I have a sorc, a nigh blade, a Dragon Knight, and a Templar. maybe your idea of countering a sorc is to either out tank them, or run from them [snip]? Once again, if balance is for everyone playing pvp to be a tank, I would like you to explain to me how that is balance? there are more Sorcs in pvp then any other class, and that is not because they like sorcs, it is because they are op!

    For some odd reason people feel that I am bashing Sorcs because they are OP, its not really the intention here.
    You don't go out to the bar and ask them to water down your drinks do you?
    Do you water down your fireworks before the 4th?
    then why would watering down skill lines be any different? Watered down skills means watered down fun!
    If I want watered down fun ill go to a wet T shirt contest.
    It is not why I play Elder Scrolls.

    Bugs! who said Elder Scrolls had any bugs?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHPbTuSOKaA

    People that do the normal game few dungeons, little questing would not even understand how broken the game is.
    strip off your CP, go into a PVP match to test your glorious legendary armor, and you will see what bugs I am speaking about.
    It's not a bug, it's an infestation. The entire idea behind the patches was to create balance, it did no such thing, it only took 7 years of development, and tossed it into the trash can. Instead of working on the problems that the game had. We have adjusted the entire game. creating new problems, and not fixing the existing problems. It is not really worth the effort of bringing problems to the attention of the bug report, because should the devs not agree with you, they will threaten, and ban your account to keep you quiet. They will not admit that they have made any mistakes, will only sugar coat things, and hope your short term memory will forget all about it.

    . While I am at it the next topic in the discussion will be the Templars biting jabs.

    •Launch a relentless assault, striking enemies in front of you four times with your Aedric spear dealing 299 Physical Damage to the closest enemy and 121 Physical Damage to all other enemies.
    •The final strike reduces the Movement Speed of the closest enemy by 40% for 1 second
    •Activating this ability grants you Major Savagery, increasing your Weapon Critical rating by 2191 for 8 seconds.

    no place in the description does it say that this skill will silence you, but it does, it silences you from retaliation In any way can not roll doge, can not use any of you skills because you are silenced. Yes broken also. So this creates a situation where you have spamming, and it has been going on for quiet some time, this has not been addressed.

    The solution to all these problems would be to "do a roll back," and focused on each problem individually so that you could make adjustments as needed one skill at a time. your blanketed approach to adjustments has created more problems than it has solved.

    If it ain't Broke don't fix it!

    Sorry but I did not read past the first line.

    If reflective scales is the only counter to crystal shards then how have the other classes managed against sorcs all this time.

    Smh the rest of us manage against sorcs. Maybe figure out those counters all of us have available.

    Did I strike a never with you when I mention Templars biting jabs?
    may I ask is this why 3 of your characters are Templar, so you may exploit the Templars biting jabs?

    There is a higher order, It is much higher than the devs, understanding of balance, disorder is not balance.
    You cant have one with out the other.

    7 years of development, 7 years of balancing, 7 years of tweaking glitches , and bugs. Just when everything was starting to feel right, you went and screwed it all up.

    Anyone who would sit, and ignore the facts written in front of them, and documented, then proceed to lie, I have a very low opinion of.
    Just be cause you say it is. Does not make it true!

    Rune Prison
    Active •Imprison an enemy in a constricting sphere of dark magic, after a short duration they are stunned for 3 seconds.
    •The stun cannot be blocked or dodged.

    Encase
    •Call Daedric shards from the earth to immobilize enemies in front of you for 4 seconds.
    •This ability cannot be blocked.

    Now that you have been discredited for lying. Maybe in the future you will do your due diligence before making false comments.

    Not really about nurfing anyone, It is about un-nurfing.
    Many classes lost things they need to counter the sorcs.
    like weapon range, shields, reflective scale, knock backs,
    and the ability to avoid certain attacks.
    So many skills mutilated that it has cause a total imbalance.
    But if you read the thread you would see.
    is about how our skill lines have been watered down.
    These skills where need to keep sorc's in check.

    I am a CP 1229 Sorc, I think I know how it works.
    I also know I can steal kills left, and right, daedric shards are nasty.
    I do not run my Sorc much because when I do I get all kinds of nasty
    pm's.
    I will soon be running my Sorc, just because I can, and just because it is OP.
    I would prefer that the skills where un-nurfted so I can run what ever character I choose, but in the end.
    I will exploit this problem just like everyone else.
    It is a problem, and I will take advantage of it just because the devs do not care.
