I was also very worried, especially when I saw the changes made by NB, it was like a sixteen-year-old boy who had just learned how to use the modifier and decided to change his favorite class to God Mode.

Continuously fired Merciless Resolve + Damage that can be stacked up to 10 layers, Master Assassin provides Critical, Pressure Points provide more Critical, Magicka Flood provides both stam and magicka, and Catalyst provides more Ultimate.
Any of the above changes would be a huge buff for any class, and now they are provided to NB at once.

In contrast, the other three old classes, Templar's Radiant Destruction was nerfed to 4.8 seconds, which makes it no longer compatible with Relequen; Dragonknight's Combustion was nerfed to 16/33% & 211/423, Battle Roar was nerfed to 18/37; Sorc Bound Armaments was weakened by 10% (this is a skill similar to Merciless Resolve, but weaker overall, but the developers are worried that letting it fire continuously will cause problems, so they nerfed it by 10%), Daedric Prey was restricted and no longer interacts with non-sorc pets, Dark Magic and Storm Calling, the two most problematic but most representative skill lines of non-pet sorc, have not been overhauled, and even commented by the developers: "Those who do not wish to interact with the pet gameplay can now replace this skill line as a whole."

Honestly, even though I'm in favor of subclassing, based on the current patches I feel extremely uneasy and pessimistic about the upcoming U46.

so like, we kinda exist? we made enough background noise to be somewhat ever-so-slightly noticed?

how will week 4 update go.. I must be insane to have even a bit of hope left that the changes devs decide to make it to live are gonna be.. good.

this is such a tiny reaction from them for the volumes of discussion in the forum on the sorc skill line changes when the pts notes were first announce. there must be more than enough insight for them to consider alrdy right..?

think this rly might be it, its joever o7 Sorc.

I'll be the first one to stand up and cheer if the changes are anywhere not bad, at this point im afraid to even ask for a good change, please just dont completely butcher us.

If they could ignore necromancer players since taking away Stalking Blastbones, they can ignore sorcerer players too.

They managed to ignore sorc players for a solid 5-6 years before they eventually made sorc so bad from constant nerfs the class was literally dead. It wouldn't surprise me if they do the same again.
