Hurricane is useless on a magicka sorc.

If you want to use a skill that scales off your lowest stat, I guess you could use it.

Personally, I prefer the increased speed of Boundless Storm.

I was thinking the same for stats, but is it that much of a speed difference that is better than the radius off stam morph (actual question about if they overpowered stam morph, not sarcasm) honestly idk

Hurricane does physical damage. Doesn't proc your uber lightning-based disintegrate you'll have if magicka-based. Don't doooo it.

It looks like a hurricane but it feels like

It kind of depends, if you're playing a stam sorc then you use the stam morph to lightning form. Otherwise you use the magic morph.

I agree but to me it seems the magic morph isn't as good, correct me if I'm wrong though for those who have used it and appreciate it

i mainly play PvE with my sorc;
i find it useful, most of my DPS is ranged, however for those times when i need to get up close & personal with the mobs im killing, i activate lightning form, proxy det, liquid lightning to turn myself into an aoe,

it has its uses in PvP too, I havent taken my sorc in for a while, so im sure someone else could comment on that

If you're magicka-based, the amount of damage you'll be doing will be ridiculously low. And if you're a hybrid stamina/magicka character, you're doing it wrong (just stating it as it is, hybrid builds are a no-go in this game). So yes, hurricane should be restricted to stamina-based sorc builds.

Either morph is a nearly wasted slot on a migicka sorc. Your 10k resists become 15k with boundless up. Anyone with a sharpened weapon is basically fully penetrating your armor anyway. Shields do not benefit from resistances.

If you slot it, you slot it for speed, so the answer is the magicka morph.

Both morphs are extremely good for pve. Boundless for magicka and hurricane for stamina. The only time a magsorc shouldn't have boundless slotted is for double staff builds on single target fights. Stam should run hurricane all the time in pvp and pve

what is pve?

@Xeven

Player Vs Environment, or looking at it another way, fighting mobs. As opposed to fighting players.

The tactics and strategies between the two types of game play are both vastly different and quite similar at the same time. Because Players can do things to other players that Mobs can't do, combat has to be approached differently. Although, most of the same skills are used other than some Alliance War specific skills.

Option 1: You have all points into magic and you should be running boundless storm.

Option 2: You have all your points into stamina and you should be running hurricane (this skill is ridiculous).

Option 3: Go to the shrine and respec ALL of your points into one of the above.

There is no option 4.

Ridiculous in a good way or bad way?

@Jadar
In a very very good way!

Hurricane is fantastic! Great single target AND AoE dps DoT... extra resistances for being in melee range... and a speed buff! Whats not to love!

But uselsss on a magicka sorc which is annoying.

OK that's what I was looking for, I worded my question completely wrong what I originally meant was: "Is it unfair that the stam morph is much better than the mag morph?" So thanks! Was curious

Stamina Sorcs complained forever about not having any useful stamina class skills, ZOS finally answered by giving us a skill that's actually useful and you want to complain? Mag Sorcs have an entire class of skills to choose from, Stamina Sorcs hardly anything... so it's only fair that Stam Sorcs get a class boon for a change.

Hurricane is terribad on MOST sorc;s even on stam sorcs I would much rather have Boundless storm slotted over Hurricane.

Do you play a Stamina Sorc? The current combination is Hurricane with Crit Surge and Steel Tornado thrown in for good measure. Hurricane and Crit Surge work perfectly together, so any time I deal with mobs it is my go-to combination.

Boundless Storm/ Speed turbo boosters.


Round up the entire zone of mobs.
Liquid Lightning
Elemental Blockade
Elemental Ring
=Win..

Interesting combination... But goes to show what works works, like dogs... Dogs work because they are cool
