Why are we giving sorc HP scaling wards

I really am confused on this change and what the target mark is for this specific change, the small increase on the shield size is ok but the hp scaling aspect seems a bit bogus. Is the target Off-Meta sorc PvE tanks? Stamsorcs in PvP? Trying to give magsorcs an easier way to just be a tank in PvP?

Speaking from a PvP standpoint we've already been locked into a super unenjoyable tanky, heal stacking meta that people have been begging zos to in the opposite direction of. All I can see from this change PvP wise is almost all the average sorcs you see day to day specing 40k+ hp(which is extremely easy to do) and becoming another class that plays extremely tanky and passive. This is especially frustrating since one of the main heals in PvP that is obviously unhealthy and overtuned and has an unfun scaling mechanic is warden's polar wind; an hp scaling heal.

I'm glad sorcs are being considered for changes and being looked at but personally I feel like this is a misstep and not in the direction we should be going. The class could use some slight quality of life adjustments/buffs but nothing too dramatic as it's not nearly as weak as people on here seem to believe.

    The good point : they are trying to do something. But I think stamSorc will be even stronger with this. And magsorc will still be weak. Let shields be able to crit instead of make scaling with health

    shields are very expensive, actually too expensive for a stam sorc, who has to manage some other magika skills, too. would have to look at the current numbers for the shield, if it can work well as a savior, but i think that a stam based sorc with LOS and speed is better than throwing a shield.
