    Yes, but, this thread doesn't ever go away. Does this video somehow prove that Mag Sorc is anything more than avg. dps, over 30k single target etc.

    A better comparison would, why play a Mag Sorc vs. all the other higher dps options in game?

    Because we want to, and mine does fine. My Sorc can easily reach the figure you just provided, even in a single hit via Overload! Also, I don't run the Elegance or Necropotence sets, but I also don't run pets.

    Magic Sorcs are not dead and are still quite dangerous on the battlefield. However, they are just not over the top OP like they used to be. Many Sorc posters on these forums though wish to return to the days of being massively OP.

    Slightly off topic, but I've notice when people refer to sorcs in threads like this they're only referring to magicka sorcs; as if stam sorc isn't a thing.

    Because day in day out...some stam dk, NB or stamplar charges at me, hacks away and....opps frag out bang you're dead. Try again.

    Plus if stamina was truly was king you'd get stam emps more often. But they drop like sacks of crap even with 80k stam.

    Let's see a 24-mag-sorc group fight a 24-stam-dk group in Cyrodiil and see how that turns out.

    Actually... someone organize that. I really want to see that unfold.

    Don't incorporate bugs into your builds, and you won't have [an] issue.

    Easy. All sorcs force pulse 1dk at a time and reduce the numbers 1 by 1. DKs won't even get close before they've made thier first hit. 1 steak dodges everything and oh look were behind you. Leap is easy to see and would you like 24 meteors all at once?

    You can zerg without being in close proximity. If they split up and attack from various flanks they can outmaneuver them.

    They can try. All they'd do is crit rush into a shield / mine field. and do nothing but end being stunned by streak.

    They'd lose the first time and get all salty. Run off to the bank and get shield breaker out and call it a fair contest afterwards lol.

    And what if they happen to have chains? They could pull you out of the minefield. They could even unload Silver Shard spam on you. Some of them may even try using Ash Cloud to get you to either move or stay still whilst taking damage.
