Crit surge still works for staff sorcs!

I just tested it on the pts. Atm staffs no longer have a damage rating, they just use your spell damage rating.
But it is still weapon damage, just taken from the spell damage. When you hit crit surge, your damage with a staff and all the staff abilities still increase just like on live and you get the heal element.
So crit surge on the PTS works exactly like it does on live, the choice is to add the self heal or increase your class ability damage.

✭✭Besides the whole fact that it has a 1 second cooldown on the heal, thus completely and totally gimping our only in combat source of self heals.You earned the 500 LOLs badge.

You cast it on yourself like you do on Live, I'll give you that. But otherwise it is a completely different skill now.Invictus

Yes. The fact that this cooldown is added means that you can get a critical on a small DoT effect and recieve heal from that, and not your actual damage dealing spells.1 -

✭Uhm it doesn't make sense, the staff base attacks do more damage but the staff abilities does not....
Which means that if they removed the weapon boost from the other morph and added a heal to it, then the other morph would do the same as crit surge + more class ability damage.....
Talk about poor game design, because of the way they have changed staff damage, then they cannot keep a useful surge for staff users which is probably the most common weapon for sorcs.
So they took the most important sorc ability in PvE and made it useless for anything but stamina sorcs because they could not code the new staff damage in a reasonable way.
