So I was doing some PvE last night and ended up in a dungeon and this guy was giving me a hard time on my build saying inner light and bound aegis was a waste of bar space on two of my bars. He stated I needed to drop both of those for Entropy and use duel wield as my second bar (extra weapon, set, and glyph buffs) which didn't make sense as that would turn me into a one bar character. He also went on to say that my first bar should just be LL and Elemental Blockade with no single target spells. Lastly, he told me that having force pulse would get me kicked from trials as I should use the other morph (forget the name). Wanted to reach out to the group to see if anyone else had thoughts or opinions.

✭✭Did he advise you to use crystal blast instead of frags?
Apparently he lives in a world where everything is upside down

✭✭✭✭✭Either an idiot or an troll, first crunching shock does less damage than force pulse but it interupt, this is nice solo leveling but pointless in groups against bosses.
Entropy is worse than Power Surge who sorcerers use, yes entropy do a bit of damage but last 1/3 as long.
Even more stupid having LL on front if you don't use staff on back. then you want to put all non staff stuff there.
However sorc staff bonuses makes staff on both bars recommended.Edited by zaria on March 20, 2017 1:50PMGrinding just make you go in circles.

Yeah he was saying the morph on purse was the shocking that stuns enemies and on one trial you must have it or get booted a 100% of the time.
Thanks all for the advice, will keep my build as is for nowGo Big or Go Home

- You should dual-wield on your back bar, and
- You should have NO single target spells on your front bar, but
- You should use Crushing Shock over Force Pulse
...where exactly did he suggest you slot Crushing Shock? Overload bar?

I am assuming he wanted it on the first bar and misspoke but none of it sounded like a good idea lol.Go Big or Go Home

✭I dont even think most PvE Sorcs use DW anymore, I think the standard is fire/lightning double destro.1 -

✭No one uses Entropy. Period.
DW has a very specific use for very specific builds. Trying to force people to play those specific builds is just silly. Just ignore DW. I have VMOL on farm on my Sorc who runs Resto/Destro, so just think about that for a bit.
In Vet Dungeons is often useful to drop Bound Aegis and run a ward and crit surge, especially if you are running with randoms who can be of any skill level. Crit surge and a ward allows you to solo all content in the game, and it's nice not having to rely on a garbage healer.5 -

✭Crushing Shock has its place in trials as a ranged interrupt in certain content.
As far as the rest I would have to say a I disagree with your mystery man by a rather susbustantial margin.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭And inner light and bound aegis is nice, keep them if you can depending on how many skills you use.
Yes, that is an obvious one.

I actually tried to put elemental drain on the overload bar it did not work out well
