    Yet, many posts are stating sorcerers are now the weakest class in game. Meaning sorc's are no longer worth running outside of pve & solo dungeons. Thought the stick & dress would be the last option now.

    You seem to not understand who 'owns' things round here.

    Also, calling the devs a "bunch of chimps" may not be good for your long-term posting ability.

    that dude is a decent player... but like...
    maybe talons him before (or ever?!) your bat swarm

    and maybe less useless bashing?

    and definitely more killing him!

    Killing players does wonders for making them dead.

    Lol that guy just stomped like 4 people and some change in npc. It was kinda funny how no one was doing any damage to him.

    Exactly shield stacking is still a problem!

    No I was stateing that even though I haven't done PvP in over half a year I can see that none of you were even trying very hard to do damage.

    Heavy armour tank loses every single time to light armour user of similar skill. Fact is heavy has no resource management, not even the dk battle roar passive will save you. A sorc like that in light armour is able to be a better tank than a heavy user because if he chooses he can stack shields and become completely defensive. At the same time he can choose to be offensive and dish out far more dps than any tank in heavy could. I believe this guy is Emperor? if so then poor choice for comparison.

    Prob was a poor choice of comparison I.e. emp but unfortunately there weren't any other players to fight on PTS at that point.

    Zenimax has done a great job with 1.6 . You're only a bad player, that's all.
    Do you really think, your cookie cutter whip whip whip build will dominate everything ? Learn and educate -.- and don't expect people to die from your foolish attempts.

    The Sorc you were fighting in the first place is a very skilled one. So it is not even your fault. Light armor users are very very squishy now. If they have to recast damage shields all the time, they deal less damage and will be out of Magicka soon and then it is very likely, to kill him with a few good hits.

    But a heavy armor player can take tons of damage without shields. You only have to be a bit more versatile than only your laughable whip spam (which is normally extremely strong, but don't expect EVERYONE to die from it)

    Heavy armor is tank armor. You did nothing to show that shield stacking is a problem because you are not anywhere close to stacking up any big burst or enough DPS to actually pressure; which probably should be stamina melee based if he is using harness magicika.

    Don't worry. If you go all stacking DPS, then he might have paid more attention to you then you would be upset about being killed too fast.
