Sorc Streak

Am I the only one who thinks that this skill should not stun?
Streaking sorc jumps so far and so fast that nobody can catch him/her anyways and beside that it always stuns.
It's like best escaping mechanic in a game.
It just feels so annoying and overpowered.

    How do you feel about Ball of Lightning. I mean from the perspective of an user. Do you even use it or comes this from someone who feels above slotting a gap closer or using immovable pots?

    No, I don't use it, I just think stun is too annoying and if there are 3 sorcs or sometimes even more then its just a huge stunfest.
    Ball of Lightning seems ok imo.

    3 Sorcs can't stun you more often than 1 can.
    3 Sorcs also can't stun you more often than any other class.
    Stun immunity is a thing.

    So you don't use a skill and therefor have no insight on how it plays. Yet you rally for a nerf. Great.

    3 Sorcs on one BG can be enough to make it annoying and they can stun lots of people.
    And I know what is stun immunity but it does not matter, people are just annoyed because how op this stun is with escaping mechanic.
    I understand that you are a sorc player, bro, you are strongest with your crazy dps, crazy stun, shields, with your annoying pets and you have amazing heals too...
    Nerf or not, I just wanted to post that it feels op for me and for lots of other people with who I have discussed it in game.
    Like they say, it is beyond annoying!
    And who says that it should be a nerf? Maybe if stun is removed, it can be changed to something else that might play out as a boost.

    I don’t see you suggesting a compensation in your op. So you are calling for a nerf. Pretty obvious.

    Any class can stun you through block. Everyone has something different that annoys em.

    My advice remains: hop on your sorc, if you even have one, and try running it for yourself. You will find out the downsides rather quickly. It will change your view on „how op“ streak really is.

    Btw I don’t main a magsorc. [snip]

    I dont find streak op, without escape tool sorcs have the worst defense and relies heavily on keeping their shields up which dont last long.

    Stun on main spammable is way stronger than using a global cooldown to stun players.

    Sorc burst is highly predictable and evrything except curse is blockable/dodgeable allowing for counterplay.

    Sorcs dont have amazing heals, they have crit surge and blood magic passive (rapid regen is not class skill) and maybe a killable pet if they have 2 skill slots available. Bar setup is pretty tight on sorc which is why not alot of good sorcs use pets.

    They allready have another morph of streak which doesnt stun, but absorbs projectiles and remove snares and immobilizations.

    Before you call me a salty sorc player im going to let you know i mainly play stamdk, magblade and recently magplar. My friend was playing magsorc (one of best magsorcs imo) but swapped to stamcro which he says is way stronger and easier to play.
