When is this nerf happening on the sorcerers? I've been hearing this everywhere while messing around in cyrodil and wanna know if this is a thing that's happening or it's just a rumor

J2JMC✭✭✭✭✭It is happening Soon™.
Jokes aside it is happening. They haven't announced when.
Knee Jerk, L2P, Obtuse, Casual, Entitled, All The Best, unnecessary mention of CoD
Battle leveling for pve content defeats the idea of progression. Remove CP

✭It's happening, we will know when when they tell us. The only thing they're nerfing for sorcs is bolt escape. Bolt escape is not the only skill necessary to make sorcs viable.Edited by Qyrk on July 11, 2015 11:02AM0 -

✭Please stop. There are numerous threads on this topic and there's no need to repeat everything all over again. What was to be said, was said already.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭As they said in ESO Live, they don't like to nerf, but prefer to buff other things in comparison. Sorcs already took a nerf to Light armor; whose fault is it that most Sorcs use the same abilities because the others we have available don't do anywhere near the kind of damage we need to compete- especially since now Light armor is akin wearing paper. We need to hit hard from distance with massive AoE's... that's how most Sorcs roll because it pretty much is the ONLY way Sorcs can roll and be competitive. Stop calling for nerfs, try developing your own skills to compete against them. Funny how some people call for nerfs on Sorcs while other players- players who develop their skills- do not complain because they've learned how to deal with Sorcs.
I saw this same problem in DCUO, unskilled players would whine about some powers being OP, so devs would nerf them (unless it was their most recently released power which they wanted people to buy power tokens to play), and soon it became an endless nerf-fest and many players left because of it and the constant whining by those who couldn't take the time to develop their own skills and just wanted good players brought down to their level. I am hoping and praying that ZOS does not take this same path and instead realizes that the minority who constantly complain about other players are having problems because of their own lack of effort.CP: 2121 ** ESO+ ** ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****

Their strife and overload is the only thing I've been hearing people complain about but otherwise sorcs aren't that bad for my nightblade1 -
