I dont like it. Its more a X vs 1 Vid.

Roechacca · December 2014

Good resource management . Nicely timed attacks . A bit lengthy video for my ADD .

Francescolg · December 2014

Good Musik - good Video!

Do you use reflect or suck up-and heal (the 1h/shield skill)?

cozmon3c_ESO · December 2014

I use Defensive Stance works well now with double reflects.

After watching that video I gotta ask, how do you get latency in the 70s?!

i live in Texas and i think the servers are around here somewhere and yeah i was no where near a zerg, plus im not going to show the lag fest that ensues, i just doesnt make good television lol.

Poxheart · December 2014

I rarely play near the zerg, but the best latency I get is in the high 90s. Must be the result of living on the west coast.

The other thing that I found interesting about your video is that even though some of your fights are really long, you rarely got enemy adds. When I'm out ganking, if a fight lasts longer that 10 seconds another enemy player is bound to show up.

DezIsDead · December 2014

very interesting. I tend to run in groups more, but i do have a solo build. cool to see that yours is much more hands on where as mine is more about CC and kiting them. awesome video either way

NordJitsu · December 2014

Great video.

I really like the 1hs with that damage bar because it gives you the reflect.

Jitterbug · December 2014

I liked it!

themizario · December 2014

Meh.

Bolt escape is OP everytime someone had you low you bolted out of there got more resources I'm not criticizing you. Good play on your behalf but I wish that game mechanic was removed

Feel free to insert any ability into the blanks.

saintmurray · December 2014

I'm sure as a person with 2 sorcs you will find it hard to understand :P

It's the only ability that has been nerfed 4 times.

The original BE wasn't OP. Now it isn't even close. If anything the should buff it back to where it was.

The only reasonable nerf was making it so you couldn't bolt with the scroll.

I've never had too many issues chasing sorcs using the one hand or the two hand gap closers. It's also called bolt 'escape' and it's not even a garunteed escape against a good amount of builds who can spam gap closers.

cozmon3c_ESO · December 2014

ive tried other builds

Have you tried playing a sorc with no mobility? you saw how close to dead i was just from being hit a little bit didnt you? a sorc that cant move is a dead sorc, with armor not meaning much atm, light armor is still the best choice with all the passives that i have found. trust me when 1.5 hit i tried all kinds of builds, two hander sorc (ran out of resources in 2 seconds), and Bow sorc (this one was good but no way around reflective sheilds and more then half the players are dk's). i would love to get up into the fray and do some damage but i havent found a way yet, let me know when you do.

i think the main issue for me is i cant find sets to work together, some sets only have 5 pieces to them and fit with like nothing.

saintmurray · December 2014

I'll say it again, you played well and used the game mechanics well. I should have worded my post differently. Its a shame that lots of sorcs have to play this way because as a class they lack other resources to fight as well up close for long periods.

Teargrants · December 2014

Whoa hold on a minute, Dalai Lama actually chases after you? What sorcery is this? Every time I see him he just blinks and sits in mist form.

Xiphyla · December 2014

Nice video. Is that defensive posture that you used ?

thanks man, yes Defensive posture

Xeniph · December 2014

Nice resource management, as someone else has noted.

Mind sharing the gear and enchants?

Over all, it was entertaining and nice gameplay.

cozmon3c_ESO · December 2014

Seducers (8% mana reduction) , Syrabane (return on magicka with successful magicka block), two piece dominion for extra health. enchants is pretty much spell power on rings and i dont really use my weapons to often with this build but they are disease.

Subtomik · December 2014

Not a fan of the music, but considering thats my biggest complaint i would say great video. Fun to see it from another point of view, and really enjoyed a lot of fights against some big name players.

brando_bellcub18_ESO · December 2014

This is the typical block/caster build for a sorc. I run the same attack bar as you but with my ulti being bats. Basically the dmg dealing is anti Reflective Scales with your own magic dmg reflect/stun if you use defensive stance morph.
If you are looking for some good sets synergy's for this build try Blessing of the Potentates, Light of Cyrodiil and Martial Knowledge. Soft capped in magica, health, spell dmg and magica recovery with high health and stamina recovery. For mundus I use the Lady for added armour. Eye's of Mara aIso works with this build if you need to add impenetrable and or if you enchant your rings with with something other than magica recovery but still stay soft capped such as Glyph of Shielding or Glyph of Fire Resist or Glyph of Decrease Physical Harm.

Bipolo · December 2014

Some good PvP there /thumbsUp

Looks like Reflective Scale isn't stopping you from taking down these "OP DK's"

The magic of Sorc mobility and Defensive Posture! /cheer

Martial knowledge with 5 piece set bonus has the 10% extra damage if I remember right?
Don't do it's terrible. Unfortunately the set is broken/poorly designed so that when you trigger the extra damage it also applies to the next attack of anyone else who attacks your target. So if a scrub comes along with terrible DPS and light attacks, there goes your damage bonus it's just been wasted.

Armitas · December 2014

Nice vid, love the music. On the fight at 12mins, with the right amount of crit would it have changed the fight much if you were able to use crit surge on his storm atronach for heals?

Funny you didn't include where I came back and killed you twice 1v1, guess I'll have to run video in cyro just to keep ya honest

BTW nothing says "I don't want to fight you" more then literally just standing there blocking with shields up, I was in the middle of swapping out weapons didn't even have a second one equipped lol. I bolted away only to get sniped by two lethal arrows, poison injection and then your disintegration proc. That's why I went from full health plus full shields to dead in about 2 seconds haha. I know I'm going to get the whole there's no such thing as code in PvP blah blah and yea maybe I shouldn't have been swapping out weapons next to an enemy owned keep, just didn't think you'd pat yourself on the back so hard by putting it in your video haha. Its ok though no hard feelings, those other duels were good just wish you would have included the two other fights where I did kill you 1v1, but I can see why you wouldn't want to include that lol. See you out in Cyrodil!
