Reworking Sorcerer class sets should be a priority

As loyal customers, players expect to feel heard and valued, and the lack of responsiveness is both frustrating and disheartening.

    I'm sure that they listen.

    What we got, was what they wanted us to get. I don't agree that they made an error.

    Have you tried playing arcanist instead?

    The whole thing people don't see is that class sets are not meant to make that class any better in a certain situation or in a certain environment like PvE or PvP. It's also not meant to improve the whole character to the extend.

    Instead it's there to compliment a certain skill line and only this. Where Beacon of Oblivion offers defensive capabilities while you have pets doing the damage for you you need to survive on your own without them and thus it's giving you damage bonusses. That's what it's all about and complaining about it not being a top notch meta set in PvP isn't getting you anywhere at all as it never was meant to be (hence the bonus reduction with Battle Spirit).

    So you’re saying Pyrebrand isn’t broken in PvP?

    I don't understand why some people can't accept the fact that BoO is a failed class set?
    Anyone who has actually played sorc for 5 minutes can easily point out where BoO fails. But some people seem to be working very hard to offset the protests of sorc players by supporting BoO.

    Best part about it is that the same few trolls trying to claim that it’s fine are the same people who have zero intention of farming and using the set.

    Gotta love moderation.
    Either a desert or an ocean.

    What were once rules enforced with an iron fist, are now stampeded through. Wonder how many avid socialites got their final strike from a “trolling and baiting” flag without just cause while people whom share qualities with your quoted user go about trying to gaslight real in-game issues for humor.

    Some twelve year old might hit an “agree” or “awesome” on their post, but it doesn’t make it any less embarrassing.

    On September 10th we will receive the last patch of the year. Will we see any reasonable changes to Sorc? No buff is needed, but adjustments need to be made to the lack of magicka sorc in PVE and the main source of output being limited to pets, as well as a more reasonable means of survival in PVP without relying on Ward.
    As for the Beacon of Oblivion...let it be Oblivion, it is undoubtedly a failure.

    On september 10th it will be just a stream announcing release of new patch. Patch itsellf will go live more or less 5 weeks after that date.

    He means the PTS notes.

    Sadly, the Week 1 notes are basically the patch these days. Not much of anything changes from when they are originally posted to when the patch actually goes live six weeks later.

    I play sorc 90% of the time. I wouldn't say that I'm any good at it, but I don't die much these days.
    For a variety of irrelevant reasons, I won't be farming this set.

    I can't afford to buy Arcanist to get around any disabilities affecting Sorc or Sorc-friendly sets.
    I'll just need to adapt with what I have.

    Given what they've told us about their dev processes, because they're so waterfall, they can't afford to backtrack on the work they've done and explain why those hours were funded but did not deliver anything live in the game.

    PTS notes are also not released the same day as first stream announcing new patch. It usually takes between few days to two weeks and usually happens on mondays/tuesdays so I would expect U44 PTS notes to arrive september 16th ot 23rd.

    You already know. We have bots looking at the set and going knee-jerk wide eyed at the 15% damage.

    Hey, Kevin left the Bug Report directory open in the PTS section if you guys want to leave some comments about how great the Sorcerer sets are.

    They seem to have left out a Set Feedback tab.
