Can we PLEASE nerf magSorc already!?!?!

Keep_Door · August 2017

I know this is a popular topic and has been brought up multiple times but seriously it needs to be done. Im sick and tired of getting killed over and over by no skill sheild stacking frag lobbing curse slapping lightning weilding baby snowflake wannabe loser !!!!

My damage as a procblade comes all at once in a nice controlled burst so if i can hop out of the shadows on a light armor magsorc i have no issue whatsoever killing it. But what happens when either my inital burst isnt enough or gets interrupted....? I die ..... every time. The sorc pops his sheilds ....not the only class that can use sheilds... in fact actually every class has access to sheilds through light armor and resto staff... but that doesnt matter nerf the sorcs...

I shouldnt have to time my bursts around their sheilds. So what if frags is one of the easiest attacks to dodge, i mean its a big purple blob coming at you. Why should i have to pay attention to what this sorc does. I should be in and out thats how i want to play and sheild stacking prevents me from doing that so that makes it unfair and op. But not any other class besides sorc, its only op on sorcs.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic. Either way, learn to play.

Best,

Option 1: nerf mag sorc for no good reason

Option 2: you learn to play

Let's go with option 2. I think it will work better for everyone including yourself. The vast majority of sorc players need to learn their char as it is.

Nerf sorcs? Dont think it needs a direct nerf.

Nerf shieldstacking? Yes

Nerf restoult? (Lights champion) Yes

max_only · August 2017

and suddenly "NERF SORCS". OP fails to proc shot sorcs dead and is unable to cope when the sorc retaliates and ends up getting killed instead. At least some of the other threads have tried to provide some logical basis as to why sorcs should be nerfed, but this, this is just a L2P issue.

LOL.

After actually reading it, this is obviously sarcastic in nature. It is satire on all of the ridiculous "nerf sorc" threads that pollute the board.

If you think this is serious, then I truly feel bad for you.

Vapirko · August 2017

Sarcasm I can agree with. There was just a thread floating around about which is the easiest class to play and even the mag sorcs were on there saying mag sorc is easiest. So yes either balance sorcs or buff other classes to match them.

I realize that. But considering the number of nerf sorc threads going around I thought of the off chance that someone would actually post this in all seriousness. Hence my earlier post.

I really am hoping OP was being satirical though, and not actually serious...

I have got to add "Nerf Mag sorc" to my Bingo card.

nah bro, no worries. I attacked him too.

The topic was ridiculous enough.

KochDerDamonen · August 2017

The amount of people who take the bait. Haha.

Mondini · August 2017

Ehhh sorc execute is a bit op but other than that they are decently balanced. countering shield stacking can be hard but it's not too bad.

Only problem I have with sorcs is when you are 1v1ing someone and a sorc puts their execute on you which procs a frag. That's a bit annoying. Like nb's they are easy to pinch kills with

Jake1576 · August 2017

This post kind of is a waste of time i read about half of it them seen you wasn't serious about anything why make a post that just waste peoples time would a mod plz close this post it's literally about nothing

Judas Helviaryn · August 2017

Ugh. I went and prepared a meme in anticipation for a thread like this, I open it up, and it's you being witty again.

I don't care, this is for all of the players who actually WANT magsorc nerfed..

Sounds like a pvp problem

TL:DR

Procblade complaining about mag sorc

Noob complaining about his armor isn't pvping for him enough.

Doesn't know what to do when his procs fail, this is what happens when you allow armor to deal dmg for people, trash players who literally don't know what to do after their procs fail. They haven't learned how to pvp like all the good players had too, all the good players got trashed when they first started but got better over time.

Nowdays all the noobs just throw on aids builds and let the builds or stupid mechanics zos brought in to carry them for kills.

When i started in 1.6 everything had a counter, you could roll dodge most things, cost reflect ults/ purge/ cloak them. You couldn't just spam uncounterable skills for guaranteed damage such as soul assault, birds, beam.

You could block everything including curse, it didn't explode twice and go through block, you didn't just have to accept your gonna to be hit for 4-6k in 3.5s then 4-6k in 8.5s even if the person is dead. You could block it if you got the timing down.

The game didn't punish people for blocking attacks like it does now, if your not a full block reduction build they with the blocking changes to every 0.25s then its not worth blocking most attacks because it hits your stamina too hard. Another zos change which wasn't though't out well and only hurt normal players more than its intended target.

Proc sets were non existent, the only one that existed was skoria and back then it wasn't very good, you could roll dodge it, reflect it and purge it if you managed to get the timing down right. People killed people with skills and not armour.

There was counterplay to everything, you could roll dodge ults, you could reflect them, cloak etc... You could react. If you wanted to land an ultimate on someone you had to be careful you had to make sure your not throwing meteors on dk's without a cc, you had to cc someone to make sure your strong Ult attack hit. A lot of ults didn't cc.

Back them in order to not get trounced i had to learn a lot. Running in a zerg didn't do anything because it was possible for a few players to kill of groups of 10~ if they was good enough.

I had to learn how to animation cancel, i had to learn how to set up burst, i had to learn how to avoid burst from all the characters. Had to learn how to counter some builds, how to know when to use ults. Had to kill people with actual skills because no random armor was going to deal 60% of an enemies hp for me.

What happened?
