Switch the templar and sorc buffs.

You got the changes way backwards, templar has the strongest defensive kit in the game, and sorcs have good damage.

Give sorcerer Major protection on dark conversion/dark deal, give templar minor berserk and minor force on toppling.

I honestly do not know how you came to the conclusion to give a class like plar more defense and not a bit of damage.

I would agree. When I read the reasoning they listed then the changes they gave I could only figure that maybe they have some really really long term plan to make sorc better because on its own this change doesn't make sense.


I can actually see the plar change to some degree. Not saying I exactly like the change but plar is good at defense when you know how to play correctly. I think this change makes plar possibly more accessible to those that want to play plar but don't understand how to survive on it.

This might work for plars that know how to play plar because they can just build more into damage possibly. That being said I don't like the idea of how I think these changes will shape up with the current plar radiant bot kill combo players.

Either way, not the best changes.

While I love more damage on Sorc, I agree these are backwards.

In PvP, Stamplar is my tankiest character and Stam Sorc is the hardest hitting.

Guess we'll be switching out cp, a set, etc to more recovery or defense to balance out and vice versa with plar.

Not sure if many players will update their builds just for this change.

Still wondering if they understand they misunderstood the complaints of both classes.

You kidding? They will be patting each other on the back for months, telling themselves how good a job they did. They might even listen to more feedback and completely screw that up too.

While I agree with the idea behind your post, toppling is not used by templars typically. Almost every templar uses camo hunter and race against time, so minor force and minor berserk aren't the best buffs to give templar, let alone to do so on a bad ability.

A unique 10 percent buff on jabs like concealed weapon has, or major berserk, would be more appropriate. And the obvious fix or rework to backlash so it actually does damage.

Templar doesn't have the best defensive kit unless you mean in a 1v1 with no los, using extended ritual and bubble and standing in rune. Even then, I'd argue dk and warden have better defensive kits. Don't get me wrong, templar has a good defensive kit, I just wouldn't say it is THE strongest.

But all in all, templar needs offensive buffs and sorc needs defensive or healing buffs/reworks.
