Sorcerer

Dark Magic
Crystal Shards: This ability and the Crystal Fragments morph no longer stun the enemy hit. The Crystal Blast morph continues to stun the initial enemy hit.
Developer Comment:
Spoiler

Rune Prison: Increased the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 16%.

Hear me out on this, crystal shards & crystal blast is hands down one of the the most manageable form of attacks in the game, projectile. Cast time, travel time, reflect, dodge, silence, dark cloak literary every class in the game has something to shut it down but they just don't care. Then they say "Oh ya, I don't feel like changing my bar just for magic sorcs," Well [snip] brother now I'm having to redo my whole [snip] character, because you don't give a dam. Could've got 12% of your health back on a sword & board, but naw; Could've blocked & pop'ed vigor on the forth second because you know how this [snip] works by now, but naw; Could've had someone heal u, most often. But [snip] me right, could've made me [snip] myself, but [snip] me harder right.

So I hear what your saying right, in cry'rod kinda hard 2 see that ish comm'in, but no worries my boi got me with the heals we out'che zergin it. And if we're not, we're dark cloak'in & roll dodging. Even if your trying to nerf high-end cyrodiil, you just gave bomb-blades 6 free vicious death procs in between the 2s of them charging up their destro ult, poping fear & teleport strike & that's been the deadliest thing in cyrodiil patch after patch since VD came out. Think I can just take down 10 ppl instantly? Well then u say it takes 'skill' to use. No it doesn't, well alot less then I do, your literally in stealth, not being attacked, hitting a button combination.

Then there's the small scale stuff. Duals are just for fun & you definitly have time to slot some CC & anti-projectile in between matches. (If they choose to re fight u, if you where somehow surprised.) Same for battle grounds, re-slot a move jump down & fight. Like know an ounce of battle mechanic & any sorc is dead in 9-23s any class, 9s without immovable. A Nightblades whole palate lets them win a 1v1 focus fight damage, defiles, maims, guaranteed crit, element of surprise, near always first hit advantage, potion ulti regen, fear me across mines... Really u loose don't know how 2 fight or run from a fight, but wait Stam-blades don't & they can 1 frame any glass & beat on anything but good stam dks. Best at burning tanks stun defile weaves, mad damage.

Returning back to sorcerers & how [snip] this change is going to be. Anyone know how to maximize dps on a stam character? Oh ya, thats right heavy attack, bash, animation cancel. So while i'm making such good frame dps hard casting this frag for u, ur go'na push my [snip] right back in by triple disorient ulti stun comboing me for 9s if you don't wait to reflect it at me in all it's cast & travel time.

Like the stun is a defensive move also, we get pushed how're we going to hard cast. If I could just sit their not worry about my health bar like the sorcs most ppl want nerfed ya that'll work, but then that would mean your not nerfing [snip]. But if I need the stun, blasts not helping me for [snip], & you just skrew'd me over for no reason.

On top of all that it may look easy because good sorcs are veterans, but crystal frags is the most skill demanding shot in the game. You have time that [snip] between dark cloak (stam-nbs); Time that [snip] between roll dodges; Time that [snip]between bubbles; Time that [snip] between wings, Time that [snip]on the holy trinity(R.I.P), if it missis [snip] happens you get hit with 3-6k for four seconds of my time & manna. Even then you only get to execute with extra damage or ult. Like how did my burst surprise u. There was a loud hiss, you started glowing purple, I started glowing purple... Not like I'm a Night-blade the one frame wonder freely teleporting in & out of zergs, killing 20 ppl, moving faster than a horse with stealth on some wrobel wonder patch, giving ppl 50% movement speed reduction off rip (un-morphed) with the most OP cc in the game. And you give it a buff. Like the frag cc is the thing that needed the nerf & you leave Fear in the game.
3.2.0

Nightblade

Shadow
Manifestation of Terror (Aspect of Terror morph): This morph now fears up to 6 enemies per trap, up from 2, and the trap no longer triggers if a crowd control-immune enemy walks over it. Enemies can also now see an initial projectile marking the trap’s location.
Mass Hysteria (Aspect of Terror morph): This morph no longer fears an additional enemy, but only fears the same amount of enemies as the base ability (2 enemies). It continues to inflict Minor Maim as a morph effect.
Developer Comments:

We wanted to distinguish the gameplay between Aspect of Terror’s morphs. Mass Hysteria grants an instant fear and strong debuff, while Aspect of Terror is more delayed but affects more targets.

Because Aspect of Terror is now more powerful against groups, we’ve made the initial projectile visible to help add counterplay to the ability.

Really? Like Really? Can I reflect that [snip]? No. Heck I might be one of the best players in the games & can't see to roll dodge that small red dot in a charging FIRE destro ulti that [snip] teleported to me, FROM STEALTH.

Any1 catch the look of that set styigans or something gives like 20% extra damage from stealth? major & minor berserk stackable.

I know this is a bit from the formal of my usual posts, but this nerfs a joke @... Is Wrobel still here? Dude hasen't posted since like 2016... Is there a new guy, if so what madness have'ye?

This is my opinion. The chance for no cast time and cost should just be on the base morph and it shouldn't stun and do less damage.

Crystal Frags should be the AoE morph more damage
and
Crystal Blast should be the stun but with less damage.

Thier names make more sense this way around

Naw, just revert crystal changes. +PTS ended & this post has been sitting first page since the mistakes have been made.

Sorcs are salty that their main part of burst got nerfed (I understand), still have all the damage tho. If you say that people roll dodge away and you miss them all, then you woulda missed all the damage before the nerf anyways.

Look for something on your bar that is a flex spot and put rune cage on it. It's unblockable and undodgeable so....

That said. I don't play a sorc, so I'm not sure if sorcs even have a flex spot on their ability bar. Even so every class has to make a compromise on what they have on their bar. Most stamina users (especially stam warden) don't really have a stun (and if you say wrecking blow) well that is largely telegraphed and I generally miss most of my attempts b/c people moving and roll dodging...

I don't play PvP at all, I really loved how unique and tactic our spell was. I could time the knock down inside vet instances to save an healer getting swarmed.
But no, every damn game I play, they make it garbage because of PvP NERF threads.
