✭✭✭✭✭Exactly, most people won't ever even get close to the 60% cap, so increasing the cap from 50% to 60% did absolutely nothing for shields ...

You need to l2p then.
Sorc was dealing too much pressure because overpowered matriarch and sustaining too easely because harness magicka.
SO :
Matriarch got overnerfed to useless where is value doesn't justify it's double bar.
Harness sustain was rightfully gutted.
HARDENED was not a problem, nerfing hardened cost just make sorc unsustainable. With live hardened and no harness magsorc sustain is already the WORST by far. Now it's not even playable.
On top of that sorc benefit far less from HoT buffs because no healing synergy + Shields already doesn't perform well in a DoT meta.
The cherry is that sorc is no longer a range class because the only good stun is a melee one.
Not being able to sustain, loosing the best class dot, having the worst defense and being forced to melee on a range designed class and YOU DON'T SEE THE PROBLEM ?11 -

They haven’t achieved this within 5 years so... MagSorc will be fine as it’s always been for PvP. MagSorc was never in ESOs lifetime bad in PvP.PS5EUAldmeri Dominion- Khajiit Arcanist -2 -

Trinimac is my shield,

Meanwhile magicka Templars, whose healing was already slightly overtuned, received a skill that allows them to remain functionally immortal for a short period of time, in the form of Living Dark.
Clearly needed the boost in survivability /s3 -

at least you can defile and cause them to overpurge with dot stack now that living dark doesnt heal when dots are applied lol.0 -

Deloth_Vyrr✭✭✭This change was needed to make the Bastion CP skill actually do something. Right now on Live I can hit the max (50% of HP) shield with 0 points in Bastion making it entirely worthless. On PTS I need to put some points in it to reach 60%.Edited by Deloth_Vyrr on August 6, 2019 5:29PM<Twin-Moons Covenant> PC NA

Doesn't change the fact that the CP star should do *something*, even if its not an optimal choice.
On Live, any magicka DPS maxes out the 50% HP of shields with 0 points in bastion making it not just inefficient, but completely pointless for even existing. It should take some amount of points in Bastion to reach max shield otherwise why does it exist?Edited by Deloth_Vyrr on August 6, 2019 7:38PM<Twin-Moons Covenant> PC NA

It still does things in PvP, just it's not worth it, in PvE it can still be used if you use spell sym first :^)Jodynn PC NA

I've seen several decent players dying to a sorc as they bashed on its shields while it tossed 7k crystal frags.
Broken class is broken.

Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills,

Ends life, kills laughter.0 -

Right because the magplar simply can't purge the dots, LOS and meditate to regen resources.Canned_Apples wrote: »lol at l2p.

Lol, let's nerf the defensive aspect of sorcs because their offensive aspect is causing a flood of forum tears.
