    It's 100% clear that you don't know the first thing about endgame PVE, so this is my cue to abandon thread. Goodluck mate.

    Not gonna find much sympathy here, because you weren't playing anything. You were spamming crystal frags and flame clench through an impenetrable fortress of rather awkward looking npcs that play the game for you. Only thing easier is spamming light attack a thousand times on a tank Fury wolf build. It's not that anyone wants to ruin your fun, it's that you were literally ruining everyone's fun by exploiting broken summons. First time I went into a BG with a 4 man pet zerg I was done with it. 4 players each having four pets(up to 5 with ulti) is a nearly 100% uptime of a full zerg in a BG, or Cyro. 20-24 depending. That's not fun, cool, balanced, or skill. If anything it's just curious to see as it runs you over.

    Don't remember much sympathy when Templar got nerfed into the ground, and I remember quite a bit of "overjoyed" ranged mag and Stam users when dk wings were radically changed. What goes around comes around.

    sorcs have been nerfed consistantly because of the lack of skill from the "meta" PvP builds and players, you complain about pets in PvP yet hug a rock because you cant fight in the open, every nerf the sorc has had has been inline with some class getting wrecked by X skill so call for its nerf and when you still get wrecked you cry for yet more, Sorcs are ridiculed as a "cheese" or an un skilled players choice, yet we have learned to counter every tactic thrown at us and overcome almost every nerf, pets are nothing more than portable rocks or WW's that dont need feeding or a breath of life spamable, to play a Sorc requires skill.

    Every class that kills needs to be nerfed lol. This game is becoming so much like CoD. Every week there is a call for nerfs, skill x is op. I kind of thought what keeps this game interesting is learning how to counter what kills you.

    I grabbed 1 lightning staff, 3 bows, 2 dual wield and some junk on my pet sorc from vMA during the event before the nerf patch.

    why should we have to compromise a DPS class and be forced into what your suggesting nothing more than a "combat healer" ?

    It's pretty disheartening to see people overjoyed at changes that deprive others of their own fun. Sure, pets in town are annoying AF, but that's no reason to laugh with glee at people who are disappointed by a massive change. I love the theme of a pet-based caster, and I'm disappointed in the nerf, but I'm far more disappointed in the community's reaction to it, and the general lack of empathy. But that's the internet for ya.

    Schadenfreude is the only sensation most of these trolls crave, recognize or desire.

    I'd gladly amp up my own shadenfreude by driving a shovel to the face of those jerks.

    Yeah, pets are awful in this game. That comes from a person who mained pet classes in MMOs for almost 2 decades, except in this game. No direct control, not even a health bar without mods... What were they thinking ? Yet, they exist, they can be fun to play, and morons who rejoice at seing other people's fun ruined will probably be whining over and over again when their oh-so-precious character gets nerfed too, at some point.

    And when the day comes, I'll have some popcorn ready.

    I've never used the matriarch anyway, just the clannfear. I find the flapping too annoying. Even the clannfear gets in my way at times when harvesting nodes, so I can understand the frustration in crafting areas.

    Of course. They had to SHIAT on 2 million PvE players to cater to 3000, broken PvP "minigame" whiny losers.

    First of all, why is Sorc always forced into Arena weapons to have viable toolkit.
    Second, have you ever played magSorc? What you're suggesting is a terrible idea, unless you run in a zerg and depend on other to get you kills.

    Matriarch is getting replaced by scamp and sorcs are doing crazy dps on PTS, what are y'all on about "pet sorc is dead"?

    says who? i've not seen one post or vid to confirm this, in fact you only have to read the forums to see the opposite is in fct the case

    Then you haven't been following that closely. Go lurk TRE a little to see what good players are parsing. Every magicka class is doing 97k+ basically, pet sorc included. Liko just put up a video showcasing pet sorc as well.

    Liko is not a fair comparison to be honest. Doesn't it go 80k, 90k,100k, Liko-K?

    I have a pet sort - he's one of my faves and I'll still be playing him.

    I have other sources too - I'll still be playing them.

    I have other characters too, mag and stam - guess what? I'll still be playing them too.

    Yeah cos the Zoo Sorcs and the "12k crit heals getting, while LoS breaking behind their Purple Flying Crutch Chicken" Sorcs shed a lot of tears (other than laughter) and felt so so bad for ruining other peoples game experience.
    How many came to the forums and said... "yeah its fun, but it needs a down tune?"

    tenor.gif?itemid=5499474

    Most of the players that wanted a challenge swapped to something else. The rest of the flops rode that train right to the end (as the FOTM broken build chasers always do)... then had the audacity to come to the forums and defend it.

    Notes by:
    I personally would have liked to have seen one morph for heals and one for damage, not both, but apparently they ruined the damage morph too. That was unfortunate. Made them easier to kill (well built sorcs' pets were tough) or non-targetable.

    I'm not buying that we're a dead class. Every patch we apparently die, yet my DPS counter keeps getting higher. I may drop Matriarch, will see when servers go back up, but I doubt petsorcs are dead. We'll have to adapt, like every other class.

    I have been playing MagSorc since Beta, both Pet Build and No Pet Build and still love it, even through ALL the changes. Rather than Bleating/Moaning about changes you just adapt and modify, you overcome, even if you have to change the way you play.
    Change is good, it gives you new challenges (And the Sorc has had many, many changes since launch)

    With every Patch there is always ppl say Sorc is dead or Warden, NB et all, People adapt and overcome it's not the end of the world people.

    I dunno, they’re on to something. I’ve been in raids where the dps who brag about their dps are often the ones who disregard mechanics the most. BuT mUh PaRsE.
