ZOS you CANNOT nerf pet sorc

Wing · July 2019

the tears will destroy this forum

a lot of players new and vet think they are good because of pet sorc, they don't realize they have been standing on a 20 foot crutch looking down on everyone else, they actually think they are just that good. this is going to destroy the forums, the tears will bring about a second great flood.

BTW

in before this nerf gets turned into a buff (like every other sorc / NB nerf over the past years) and they somehow come out of it with pets getting a damage buff and they can just ride them around slaughtering everyone and not even have to worry about bunny hoping.

The pets do too much of the work and is not challenging to play with. The playstyle is too rewarding for how little effort goes into it.

Itacira · July 2019

Then what's the point of having a pet if it gets nerfed into uselessness ???

Pets should be nerfed

What you call "little effort" I see as more about lack of skill slots. Instead of having a 10 skill rotation like on other classes, the double bar requirement for pets turns your rotation into 7-8 skills depending on Matriarch usage.

I actually don't have complaints about pet sorc. It was a nice change of pace and allowed me to breathe to just slot pets, slap some dots, and basically heavy attack. Comparing that to when I use my NB or Warden, and it's just so much less stressful. I'd like to see the other classes have less-intensive rotations and still feel good to use. Instead of nerfing sorc I'd rather make other classes less strenuous.

Pets should be removed, and Daedric Summoning changed in to a proper Battle Magic line.

Yep and that's all these people want really because they hate pets so much they would rather other's miss out on what they enjoy.

Without our pets we’re just a really crappy MagBlade.

Utility, healing, aggro, and to enable passives like necropotence

Even a pet that deals 0 damage is not useless

Well... they are nerfing Pet-Werewolf too ( Pack Leader morph, the one with 2 wolves. Pretty strong nerfs there too :'( ).
There will be no way to solo some content as using those 2 pets to tank DMG will be impossible.

Savos_Saren · July 2019

My non-pet Sorc got a slight buff on crystal frags and streak... which is good.

luen79rwb17_ESO · July 2019

People complaining about pet sorcs don't seem to remember that pets were near to useless for 3, almost 4 years of ESO 5-year Lifetime. Sorc haters gonna hate.

ajkatescub18_ESO · July 2019

Twilight appears to have gotten nerfed pretty hard, but Volatile familiar is only down 3% according to those notes. This is compared to other AOE DOTS are down 33% (Wall of Elements), 37% (Lightning Splash), and 42% (Blazing Spear), etc. So relatively, the AOE from volatile familiar should be among the strongest there is.

Only thing that bothers me about pets is their size and blocking things at crafting stations.

Ranger209 · July 2019

Have no fear in 2 weeks time all of the stamblades will be convincing the world how, whatever these nerfs for sorc are, were actually buffs instead...

TequilaFire · July 2019

Actually Frags and Streak did get buffed.

As a Sorc main myself, I detest pet sorcs. They deserve any nerf they get.

Savos_Saren · July 2019

I do wish that ZOS would increase the duration of the block mitigation up to 8 seconds for Bound Armaments and perhaps make the channeled time for Crystal Blast lowered to .5 sec.

They are the reason that our class doesn't get sort out properly.

The healing matriarch do to much, they need to town it down I agree.
- Heal burst 12k+ 2 low health target
- No need LoS
- Cost 2x less than any burst heal in the game
- Deal lot of dmg
- Can't die in Raid/DG
=> No effort = Great reward ; not logic.
This is the most unfair skill right now.

Edit :
I still don't understand why people don't play Sorc-healer much, I've one and it's so easy to heal with and dealing good dmg at the same time..

Neoealth · July 2019

Please don't nerf my main. Pet sorcs are fine. Stop nerfing us and buffing us in an endless cycle. We are fine. Leave us alone.

If you want to meddle with us, make the flappy pet smaller, or make them land. That would be a much better change.

Funny how the two most toxic and strongest PvP class builds are complaining about each other and arguing who gets the cake.

Get real, Stamblade and Magsorc are both overperforming in PvP.

Tbh, healing in general is no effort, but it'll change after the springs nerf.

They can. The question is should they.

Sorc is overperforming, stamblade isn't lets just get that one straight.

Emmagoldman · July 2019

I would like damage to pets to do damage to the player and killing a pet to do larger. dmg. Summoning should be interuptable as well. It might leave that playstyle alone but add a counter to the playstyle

RebornV3x · July 2019

If they nerf sorc any further they might as well just delete the class all together at this point
