The sorcs tool kit is "overloaded" (pun intended)

Convince me this is a bad idea.

    It would be awesome, even if its just to see all the eternal sorc defenders suddenly finding very creative ways to make a point why its not the damage that is the problem...

    By the Green please no... Magden should be buffed to be a fun and balanced class not made into a meta monster without counterplay

    Sound fun. So remove all sorc ccs and give another class with range burst an unavoidable cc. That is how balanced should be done.
    GJ forum the suggestion are not better than what the balance team does.

    What is the Magden combo that would burst people even with this by comparison to sorcs. Remember that Magdens have no execute, passive or active and 1 delayed DPS burst move.

    So we give Magden this, and what happens? They suddenly have a CC, which benefits them no doubt, but HOW would you chain the burst damage on a Magden like that?

    Currently have and play a Magden on live and by no means would giving us a CC make us overpowered lol. It may put us on a more even ground though.

    Make one of the Swarm morphs be an undogeable/unblockable debuff that causes the enemy's single-target abilities to miss, but you can dodgeroll out of it, granting CC immunity.

    Apply a knockdown effect to any enemy caught between you and your ally as you are Nature's Embrace-ing towards them.

    There you go. Some additional CC for Magwarden without resorting to simple copy-paste and it's situational and can be countered, encouraging smarter play for both sides.

    :D love the suggestions.. The point of this discussion was to just highlight and draw attention to the differences with the mag warden and mag sorc tool kit in pvp, IE magwardens don't have Burst, CC, or delayed executes, nor passives that have 10k tool tips for doing nothing.

    I´d support that - if frags were to get it´s cc back and which skill from warden would sorc get in exchange?

    I couldn´t be one that´s unusable or cenceptually broken (like ice passage).

    Simple. They should give every class a skill similar to Rune Cage. With the same range, with the same function. \o/
    Increase range of DK-Petrify, make Fear to a single-target long-ranged. Give Magwardens an option in e.g. Arctic Blast or any of those other poop-skills. Change Templar's Eclipse to work the same way.

    Now wouldn't that be fun :trollface:

    Haha, typical forum pleasant. First i play all classes and i played also mag warden for quite some time till it became unplayable for my playstyle. It is not that i think a sorc should have an unavoidable cc should, it is that i don't want any class to have a skill without counterplay.

    Mag wardens have a lot of burst if you want them to have. Deep F+dot+skoria+bird hits harder than the sorc combo.

    Oh since you are so a expert on sorcs please tell me the other op cc sorc have(that also work well in pvp).

    You are aware that this is still much more control than any magwarden could hope for, right? I would recommend reading @Hayden_Knight second post and not go full defense mode immediately - that post should clear up the confusion and put things into perspective for even the most hardcore sorc enthusiasts...

    I’m very much aware @Mojomonkeyman. Why they left magWarden in this state is beyond me. It’s a shame.

    Come on man, everyone knows that magden needs a buff. Nerfing every single class down to magden tier won't solve anything, it would just make the game even more broken and unfun and you know that.
    I used to think that PvP was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's a comedy.

    Not sure what you had hoped for or understand as burst combo, but this works as burst. Probably not easy to land nowadays with all the swift builds and without a some other crowd control options.
    I don't think wardens lack burst but they lack options to land the burst or cc the opponent. (personal opinion feel free to disagree)

    I know that and don't want rune cage on my magwarden (or any class). But the idea alone is pretty revealing when I see the responses. I think we would have a much better balance discussion across the board when every magsorc would be forced to play magwarden for a month.

    It would be awesome, even if its just to see all the eternal sorc defenders suddenly finding very creative ways to make a point why its not the damage that is the problem...

    The damage wasnt the problem...... 3k damage every 6 seconds is insanity to you?

    It's not the range stun into my 30-35k burst you cant avoid?

    33-38k if you include rune cage......


    So, tell me again how 3k damage every 6 seconds is the problem lololololol

    I am a sorc fyi, and that's not a creative way. That's just the actual truth behind it.

    The range, the sh*tty break free mechanics, and the 5 second stun if you have no stamina or if break free decides not to work, IS the problem.

    But, go on, tell us how 3k damage every 6 seconds is the issue here :) thats after resistances and CP are accounted for. Sometimes I see it explode for a lot less.

    P.s.

    Couldn't resist responding after reading that :P
