Pure Sorcerer DPS issues.

Gunthar · June 21

I dunno what is wrong with my DPS if I play pure sorcerer class on my sorceress?

If I subclass into the offensive arcanist tree, I'm around 30k to 70k DPS. And this was even calculated with missing about 25% additional damage on the champion tree.
If I go pure Sorc, I'm only around 5k to 15k DPS. This one got the additional 25% damage from the champion tree.

There was nothing changed on the equipment to do this test.

Are you using the class mastery skills? Made a big difference for my sorc.

Gunthar · June 21

Yeah. And this is even more odd. The DPS is with the offensive class mastery.

Even my little level 12 arcanist Dunmer deals already more DPS.

Is it this way for all sorcs?

We can help. But we need to know more about your build.

Like what gear, what cp you have (if any) what skills you have slotted, attributes, mundus stone, food, race, etc. The more information the better.

Something's definitely wrong. I'm doing more DPS than that on my RP/Questing build. Give us more information about your abilities, sets etc.

My pure class heavy sorc parsed 109k DPS with sergeants and noble duelist. Around 102k with Mora's thesis or monolith.

Arcanist is still easier for burst AOE DPS, but your build seems wrong .. unless you mistyped.
