if you do better with clanfear definitely use it. its all about adapting your build to your playstyle. anything i suggested is definitely not set in stone. im still pretty new to the sorc build myself
awesome thank you sir. Now that I have that healing spell we get (dark deal), i have found my restoration staff quite useless. Between that spell and a potion, I'm able to survive almost anything. Is restoration staff end game material or should i swap to dual wield / destro staff?
to be honest im still trying to figure that out myself. i think its a topic of heavy debate. i was playing with DW & resto staff last night and it seemed pretty good. i still find healing ward useful. going to run the same area tonight and see how i do in comparison with destro + resto staff. from what ive kinda picked up on, DW is for PVP and destro staff is for pve.
When you are using DW, what do you replace force pulse with?0 -

was using the tangling webs skill from the undaunted skill line. you may not have this skill line (i think you get it around lvl 45ish?)
i have since gone back to using the destro +resto staffs because i feel alot stronger than with dw. one thing to note is when using DW you hardly gain any ultimate im guessing because your not weaving in heavy attacks. i really like to use soul assault so i needed to switch back.0 -

thank you for the input! Does restro staff work up automatically by having it equipped or do you also need to have restro abilities on the bar?0
