Axiom doesnt buff light attacks/reach/elemental weapon/ice comet plus it does little for shield size. You want to buff your strongest skills so you really miss out when you dont buff your ult dmg. You'd probably get more dmg from Julianos because it buffs all your dmg skills.
You only get sustain from EG, thats 2/3 of the time not magicka so I dont really know you sustain in out-numbered situations. Dark Conversion is easy to interrupt when you cannot LoS so its often not a reliable way to restore magicka. Besides, you'll be running into stam sustain issues if you have to break-free or dodge often.
Necropotence also works really well with Shadowrend, Lich on the back bar for sustain and Willpower/Master staff on the front bar to get more dmg. Tri-stat food and tri-stat glyphs on big armor pieces helps to get to 16k stamina.
I just don’t buy you win a 1v3 vs competent players with this. Granted, you don’t win that with a meta Sorc either - but that’s beside the point. I’ll give you that the build is something other than the stale Sorc meta, but that’s about it. As you say yourself:unless youre a MagSorc, or a more experienced player, itll take a few burst combo attempts to kill them.
It’s the same on any other Sorc. It’s the best Noob killer in the game.

Yeah i run that setup.
Shadowrend, lich, shackle, willpower inferno easy 50k magicka. Better sustain, better stamina etc..
16k health in pvp? 11k stam?
Oh, wow. Never gonna win a 1v1 against a good sorc who CCs on cooldown and is using mines so you cant heavy attack.

If you're built with more than minimal stam recov you can use dodge roll to both extend offensive windows and recover from unexpected spike damage. All in all it just comes down to player preference, I know top tier players that run both and swear by both.

I am not quite sure how those shields hold up in outnumbered situations even when stacked given you might not be dodge rolling a lot.

The difference in shields from 50k Magicka to 60k is VERY small.. you get more damage with 3.4k spell damage i feel likeIs there a video of this build in action?

Youre the same guy TGM and i 2vX'd against speed kills and his 6 man right?
This is the same build from that 2vX too
Edit; Almost the same build, i dont use force anymore, and ive changed up a few enchants and poisions

Just making sure, because this cannot be a real thread.

This one isn't, the others are. I know it isn't because I see this player running this build open world.

I've only ever been zerged down by you, like once or twice, during a keep siege. And I've never died to speed kills because me and him don't attack each other. There was never any 2vX nor do I have a 6 man lol.
