What will be BiS gear for mag sorcs after housing (nerfppocalypse) ?

RazielSR · January 2017

So I always went with Overload build for my magsorc. Now I'm gonna go BSP and Moondancer. I just need 1 moondancer or 1 BSW staff...but as it seems is gonna be almost imposible to get due to the fantastic RNG, should I lose ilambris set and go 1 kena and 1 torug + 2 destro torugs and lose Ilambris?

Either the BSW setup or instead of BSW swap in Necropotence

No I dont wanna swap BSW for NP. So i guess I will continue farminig BSW or moondancer staff

Lots of good info on this thread from knowledgeable sorcs.

I'm just picking up my magsorc again after quite a while of not playing it (been mostly playing my stamsorc and magplar healer) so pardon my noobish question.

What are the skill set-ups and ultimate choices for the front and back bars you guys are using in high-end vMOL raids? Are you bothering with a third overload bar?

TIA

I suggest front bar: crystal frags, velicious (haunting) curse, force pulse, bound aegis, inner light. Ult: shooting star back bar: dawns wraith, liquid lighting, elemental blockade, inner light, bound aegis. Ult: destro ulti

Swap curse and mages wrath to procc the spell-dmg-glyph and frags during execute.

Are the changes to Elemental Drain going to force some inclusion of magicka regen into the trials meta build?

Shoudn't change that much for sorcs. From what i've heard they get around 400 magicka/sec from ele-drain atm, so it doesn't change. DK-sustain will take a hit, templar and NB-sustain will increase with the change.

So I just saw your video for magicka sorcerer housing update. You didn't mention necropotence or volatile familiar, are they scrapped ideas or...? I was thinking of replacing inner light with volatile familiar for extra damage and 8% extra health, which would compensate for the lack of health due to dropping tbs...
