Sorcerer Changes?

Cathexis · February 2016

I'm particularly interested in Stamina changes, but the overarching changes are important.

If anyone could post some observations for those of us without access to the patch at this time, that would be super.

Edit; thanks for replies - keep em coming.

Found the general sorc changes here - http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/2656351/#Comment_2656351 scroll down for class changes for hose unsure where to go.

- Magicka sorcs can now invest fully into a single damage star.
- There is now a champion star that increases damage against damage shields (indirect magsorc nerf)
- Depending on how Inner Light works (can it work if it's only on the back bar?), it might be an indirect buff to magsorcs. (extra slot)
- We now have a phisical damage reduction star. If it works like the magic damage reduction star, it will buff damage shields vs physical damage.
- Meteor is no longer reflectable
- Magicka detonation nerfed for single targets

Stamina sorcerers are being screwed this patch might as well say they don't want to support the play style cause they are hoping it will just die off eventually it seems

i'm confused why they gave empowering ward minor intel but removed the mending... it's kinda needs both to be even remotely tempting

Well this is coming from the team that buffed crystal frags last year after saying that sorc burst damage was fine and not many people were using blast. And the team that nerfed thundering presence's duration while making it cost stamina and buffing boundless.

Stam sorc buff. Less aoe radius but higher damage in spamnadoe. crit surge + more damage and heals. That isn't a nerf.

It's been like a year and a half now that I'm waiting on those long ago promised stam sorc buffs. Since that time, it's only the change that every sorc skill slotted increases weapon dmg and literally nothing else worth using. What is the issue here zos? It really seems as if you just want stam sorc to go away.

As usual, they have almost no idea what to do. This may be the last straw for some people. If Star Citizen was completed, I'd have already uninstalled ESO. There's no reason to play a game that is in a constant state of poor development.
