Hi all, it's long time i want to make this post.
I've been into this game since beta and StamSorc it's my main since 3 years, i agree with last changes and nerf to Dark Deal and Overload 3rd bar but after those changes a redesign of this class is mandatory because we are going to have even less buffs and chances to survive.

I'm writing all this text because i hope it will help to improve this game, i've appreciated many changes made by ZOS and i'm pretty sure you'll think also to sorc...if you finally nerfed shields after 4 years, we can always hope!
I'm sorry if i made some mistakes, please tell me.

I made 4 tables to compare all stamina classes:
Into those tables i've put all Stamina relevant passives, stamina morph of skills and some magicka skills which you don't need to spam and you can sustain on a stamina char, tha's why you'll se Crit Surge and not Streak or Toppling Charge.

I'll draw my own conclusion first so those who don't want to read the wall of text are free to stop here, at the end you'll find all the 4 tables with the name of the skills taken in account.
Table 1 – Buffs
Warden and Nightblade both shine here, they got 10 official buffs and keep being buffed every patch.
Dragonknight and Templars follow with half the buffes, luckly Templars got buffed this patch.
Sorcerer is the last one and, apart from generic buffs like Major Ward and Major Resolve, we only get Minor Expedition...nothing compared to classes who got Mending, Berserk or Protection.

Table 2 – Debuffs
Again Warden and Nightblade to the very top with all the best debuffs into the game.
Dragonknight and Templars follow with minor things.
Sorcerer got nothing.

Table 3 – Generic Boons
Here things changes a bit.
Templars and Dragonknight are the best with bonus to nearly everything.
Sorcerers are finally average with some regen and reduce costs, but again nothing important like buffs to defences or healing, and a buff to damage which is useless since we need to use only weapon skill on our main damage bar and can't slot more than one or two class skills.
Warden and Nightblade are at the end, but not that much.

Table 4 – Class Skills
This table is different because you can usually have only one buff, a second of the same will overwrite, while you can have multiple skills with the same effect.
Here Wardens are at the top of the food chain (and of course of the fun), they have everything: ultimate, spammable skills, CCs endless regen.
Dragonknight and Nightblade follow very close with full of utilities, even if Dks still lack of a true spammable attack but at least got many Dots, powerfull ulties and lot of regen and defences.
Templars are behind and i repeat luckly they got buffed last patch.
Last AND Least Sorcerers with just Hurricane and Implosion to shine, no defences, no healing or sustain apart Dark Deal which is cast time and interruptable nothing compared to Bully Netch or whatever.

So after this comparison don't be surprised when you see many stamblade and stamwarden around, to be honest i dont want to change.
I mean i have every stam class maxed and i could start playing stamden, but I LIKE my stamsorc, i dont want to cast flowers and trees, i like hurricanes and thunders!
What i dont like is to be pushed to play something i dislike only because it's 200% more powerfull, please i bought your game, Morrowind and Summerset aswell...i dont want nobody to be nerfed, only that you make justice of a huge difference that even a blind man would see.

Thank you.
