Sorcerer vs Templar (both magicka builds) comparison

1. Crystal Fragments vs Dark FlareP

Pretty much in line with each other, but Dark Flare could also use the instant cast chance

2. Mages' Fury vs Radiant Destruction

Radiant Destruction should only start execute mode at 20% health

3. Lightning Splash vs Spear Shards

These two abilities should hit for the same amount of damage

4. Overload vs Radial Sweep

Overload is insanely overpowered and should get hit by the nerf hammer

    Sorcerers do not have any healing abilities and only a couple abilities that provide this as a secondary, limited trait. As far as I am concerned having an edge in damage is acceptable.
    Especially since they are pretty much only effective as light armored "glass cannons" and Templars have more flexibility with armor and weapons.

    The big differences between magicks sorcs and templars relate to mobility, mitigation and healing ability. Sorcs are far more mobile. Templars heal far better. And they mitigate differently (Blazing Shield vs Hardened Ward).

    It's odd to see a comparison that ignores all of those areas.

    Meh, classes should be different. They need to fix the animation delays and bugs and some QOL improvements first so we can look at what is really needed; and I'm sure an escape or something to deal with the lack of one better would be at the top of the list but I don't think the class will be that far off. For what they are; I would rather them have some flavor rather than just become light sorcerer.

    The differences between the two classes more than make up for dps differences. if you want more dps, roll the sorc, but youll be giving up all that healing if you do, sorc's cant heal for crap
