The only possible explanation is Hardened Ward is busted and nothing can change this fact. A 20k burst heal tooltip with keep buff can never replace a 30k shield tooltip + a 10k burst heal tooltip with keep buff. With Battle Spirit, that's a 9.5k non crit burst heal versus a 15k shield + 4.5k non crit burst heal. That shield is as fat as Nibenay monster set which is used to counter some of the most cancerous combos in the game (Javelin + Meteor, Rush of Agony + ult bomb).
This is why mag sorcs still refuse to stack spell damage and slot a normal burst heal. They'll continue to use this for their arguments when the game has given them plenty of tools to deviate from the 10 year-old playstyle. At this point, they are intentionally not adapting, which makes it their problem, not ours. Hardened Ward needs to be nerfed for balance, plain and simple.

In fairness healing soul in my experience is pretty terrible, when I tried to use in cyro I very rarely got the heal my self.

If You don't understand something than maybe it's worth to check that out for Yourself before drawing personal conclusions and calling them "only possible explanation".
Just make one of the classic magsorc setups, switch hardened ward with healing soul and see how it will go.

It's so easy to prove why mag sorcs don't swap to a regular burst heal just by using the UESP Build Editor (which is fairly accurate). For simplicity purposes, I won't be including CP in these demonstrations:
Here's a wardless mag sorc build and self buffed stats on front bar and back bar, respectively:
Here's a wardless bow stam sorc build and self buffed stats on front bar and back bar, respectively:
Both builds have an empty slot for Healing Soul. Both builds have over 10k Effective Weapon Power, with bow sorc sitting at 10.5k, around 500 higher than the wardless mag sorc build.
Both builds cannot use tri-pots because they don't have the bar space to fit in Camo Hunter, thereby needing to use Spell Crit pots for Major Prophecy. Both builds cannot slot Dawnbreaker and Energy Overload, as they need Temporal Guard for Minor Protection, and that's only on the back bar. Both builds need Rallying Cry for defense because without it, they will die so quickly in the current meta.
Then you look at a ward magsorc build:
It has just as much Effective Weapon Power as the other 2 builds, but it can also use tri pots because it doesn't need to slot Hurricane. It also uses Shocking Soul for a spammable with Major Vitality, and combined with a 56k max mag pool, its shield sits at around 14k in No CP and around 9k healing tooltip. With that shield size, it does not need Rallying Cry for defense. It can also slot both Dawnbreaker and Energy Overload because it already has access to Minor Protection via a class skill, which applies to both bars. Did I also mention Jeralls can't do anything to it either because its main defense is shielding and Jerall does not affect shields?
That ward mag sorc build is A LOT tankier than the wardless magsorc and bow sorc builds. It's achieving that without the need of a defensive set. Now imagine if I put Rallying Cry on that build and slot Hurricane:
Put Major Breach on Shocking Soul instead of Major Vitality. It will lose 10% crit damage and Major Vitality, but instead it gains Minor Expedition + Balorgh, which makes up for the damage loss anyway. Now you have a build that's not only tankier, but also faster in general and still does similar damage lol.
No sane mag sorc would drop Hardened Ward in its current iteration to run a less optimal build, aka mag sorc with regular burst heal. Funnily enough, a mag sorc build with regular burst heal would be the most optimal build for mag sorc if Hardened Ward did not get buffed lol.

I don't care about classic magsorcs when the game is hybridized. Just slot Healing Soul and Vigor like a normal build. Everybody is running it. You're trying to hold on to a 10 year old spec when every spec is now hybrid. Not my problem magsorc mains refuse to adapt.

Is it smart target? I know with HTD on plar; I'd point my camera at the ground away from friendlies to make sure I git the heal. Assuming healing Soul uses the same targeting

This is such a weird post to me as was your previous one.
First off Ward needs an adjustment, there's no denying that. The upper end is just overturned for players that run that build.
With that being said and I say this to any player on any class. Run what you like, you are under no obligation to play this game in any way other than one that makes you happy and is allowed by ZOS.
I'm not a Tarnished fan by any means but I would never tell anyone wearing it to take it off. ZOS put it here, the player farmed it, now go enjoy it till it gets nerfed. Doesn't matter if anyone thinks it's too strong, a carry, etc. They need to report that to ZOS not to players that just run what ZOS gave them
This is like in dueling when people would say oh well take this set off or this skill off and see how you do. Why would I when I like my build the way it is just as hopefully you like your build as is?
I could say so much about asking XYZ class to not run such and such skill or set but how does that make sense when they aren't the ones that make the class or set.
Maybe people aren't refusing to do anything but instead going with what feels better for them in enjoying their video game that they bought, pay for, and spend time playing?
Of course someone using hardened ward will feel that healing soul is not good enough. This is exactly the issue, since ward is too powerfull if compared to any scribing skill.
Either fix ward or buff a scribing skill to reach the same results. I am sure if they do the last, we would have even more players complaining and creating posts asking for a nerf.
At this point, seems that some players that use hardened ward will fight with their life to defend it. One can wonder why.
Classic MagSorcs had to slot Healing Ward or Harness Magicka alongside Hardened Ward. It's never been a one button class until now. Directly replace it with Healing Soul on current MagSorc as your only active heal. Let us know.Galeriano2 wrote: »Just make one of the classic magsorc setups, switch hardened ward with healing soul and see how it will go.

Why is it weird? Let me put it this way:
There are 7 classes in the game. Nearly 7 of them are hybrid specs. Mag classes are using some stam skills and stam classes are using mag skills. There is no true mag vs stam anymore.
So why on earth does magsorc mains still stick to a 10 year old build and complain about Ward being too weak when ZOS literally just gave them several burst heals to use? It’s weird logic.

The only possible explanation is Hardened Ward is busted and nothing can change this fact. A 20k burst heal tooltip with keep buff can never replace a 30k shield tooltip + a 10k burst heal tooltip with keep buff. With Battle Spirit, that's a 9.5k non crit burst heal versus a 15k shield + 4.5k non crit burst heal. That shield is as fat as Nibenay monster set which is used to counter some of the most cancerous combos in the game (Javelin + Meteor, Rush of Agony + ult bomb).
This is why mag sorcs still refuse to stack spell damage and slot a normal burst heal. They'll continue to use this for their arguments when the game has given them plenty of tools to deviate from the 10 year-old playstyle. At this point, they are intentionally not adapting, which makes it their problem, not ours. Hardened Ward needs to be nerfed for balance, plain and simple.
If You don't understand something than maybe it's worth to check that out for Yourself before drawing personal conclusions and calling them "only possible explanation".
Just make one of the classic magsorc setups, switch hardened ward with healing soul and see how it will go.

It's so easy to prove why mag sorcs don't swap to a regular burst heal just by using the UESP Build Editor (which is fairly accurate). For simplicity purposes, I won't be including CP in these demonstrations:
Here's a wardless mag sorc build and self buffed stats on front bar and back bar, respectively:
Here's a wardless bow stam sorc build and self buffed stats on front bar and back bar, respectively:
Both builds have an empty slot for Healing Soul. Both builds have over 10k Effective Weapon Power, with bow sorc sitting at 10.5k, around 500 higher than the wardless mag sorc build.
Both builds cannot use tri-pots because they don't have the bar space to fit in Camo Hunter, thereby needing to use Spell Crit pots for Major Prophecy. Both builds cannot slot Dawnbreaker and Energy Overload, as they need Temporal Guard for Minor Protection, and that's only on the back bar. Both builds need Rallying Cry for defense because without it, they will die so quickly in the current meta.
Then you look at a ward magsorc build:
It has just as much Effective Weapon Power as the other 2 builds, but it can also use tri pots because it doesn't need to slot Hurricane. It also uses Shocking Soul for a spammable with Major Vitality, and combined with a 56k max mag pool, its shield sits at around 14k in No CP and around 9k healing tooltip. With that shield size, it does not need Rallying Cry for defense. It can also slot both Dawnbreaker and Energy Overload because it already has access to Minor Protection via a class skill, which applies to both bars. Did I also mention Jeralls can't do anything to it either because its main defense is shielding and Jerall does not affect shields?
That ward mag sorc build is A LOT tankier than the wardless magsorc and bow sorc builds. It's achieving that without the need of a defensive set. Now imagine if I put Rallying Cry on that build and slot Hurricane:
Put Major Breach on Shocking Soul instead of Major Vitality. It will lose 10% crit damage and Major Vitality, but instead it gains Minor Expedition + Balorgh, which makes up for the damage loss anyway. Now you have a build that's not only tankier, but also faster in general and still does similar damage lol.
No sane mag sorc would drop Hardened Ward in its current iteration to run a less optimal build, aka mag sorc with regular burst heal. Funnily enough, a mag sorc build with regular burst heal would be the most optimal build for mag sorc if Hardened Ward did not get buffed lol.
And? You really think that to understand certain playstyle ang gain knowledge about it that will be enough to draw reliable conclusions You can just tap numbers in UESP build editor and call it a day?
Your comparison is missing many important elements that won''t be immidiately deduced from just looking at raw build editor numbers and thus it's unreliable and simpy false. Go and play the setup then comment.

"Like a normal build" seems like something with lot of bias behind it.
I am not trying to do anything other than point out that magsorc is not like every other build and Your comparisons are heavily failing to capture that. You basically want for every magsorc to become weaker version of stamsorc.
Why won't You adapt? Make a magsorc. Kinda ironic to expect for others to do what You are refusing to do..

You play magsorc the way You're trying to promote? With a healing soul and all the other stuff from Your UESP build editor screenshot? Do You also fight against sorcs like that?
You may think it's enough to call it a day and someone else may think otherwise. It's just opinions. Make a setup You're promoting play it for w while and turn opinions into more reliable data.

On a magsorc instead of hardened ward?
Barely anyone here is defending the fact that hardened was overbuffed. Problem is that Your arguments usually go far beyond just claiming that. It's one thing to claim that hardened is OP and something completly else to for example claim that magsorc can be viable and balanced with just plain spammable burst heal.

However, last night I took my Magsorc into Zerodil and didn't die once. I hate to say it but Magsorc went from one of the most challenging class almost to easy mode with this change.
So when you say you didn't die what did you survive? A 12 man running negate and dc, 3 hard hitting NBs, one dk and two hard hitting bow builds, a large bomb with 3 vs procs?
Also when you didn't die was it to copious streak usage?
And lastly did you get many kills in group or on your own?
I ask all this because there's a difference in not dying and not dying while getting solo kills. As well as a difference in not dying and just getting out of there because a lot of classes and builds can currently do this with relative ease so I'm curious
I was solo. I survived several keep battles where EP was over run and I was surrounded by hoardes of opposing faction. Normally I would have been blown to bits but the hardened ward kept me alive even in close quarters several times, even in melee range. I think I had 44 kills and 0 deaths before maintenance. Like I said I am not an expert sorc by any means. I will say it is fun to play sorc now, but OP builds are always fun...for a little while at least
They’ll just say “Sorc is now on par with other classes” lol..
I know for a fact if you had hopped on another class with the same level of experience as you have on Sorc, you would’ve died instantly.
Sorc is better than other classes right now. It’s the new NB.
