so i spent about 2 hrs reading every post in this thread
i loled at some an some exactly state my experiences (mostly some parts of post #9) with sorc
i started swtor about 2 to 3 weeks prior 1.2 due to lack of time. sorceror was the one an only class i wanted to play.
just love the robe style, cant help it.
i will not state here that i am the most skilled olololsorc on my server an i roxxx0rizor every game im in.
this is just my experience until now
got 50 after 1.2 was released. had pvped to vr 45 pre 50, but most of my friends told me
that this was normal due to valor gain buff in wz's. did mostly pvp since 1.2 an im full bm with 3 wh now an i gotta say i still like dps
sorc since i started to do relatively well. grouped game with guild mates is rarely a lose. huttball rocks due to sprint an pulling
ballcarrier. playin 2/8/31 btw (http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201bZbczMZcMfRsMkrfz.1). winnin some 1v1 here an there. would win some more but mostly someone else comes runnin an butts in.
well thats life. sure sorc is not the best 1v1 class but sometimes u tend to win some.
most times i get frustrated when there's some pt killin me with somewhat 70% hp left cuz they just tend to overnuke me :S
did some duels with a friend of mine who is one of the best pt's i've seen until now. of about 15- 20 duels i won about 2 or 3.
thats cuz he didn't use cd's cause he thought he wouldn't need them.
i get highly frustrated in 1v1 vs marauders or juggs. they charge, hit smash an u'll eat around 4,5 to 5,5k dmg as starter. NICE!
u dot them, they keep hittin through your shield. u got 30% hp left snare them, try to sprint los an eat some 4k lightsaberang execute.
thats when i really get mad. kitin is a posibility to survive ofc. but u may not run to far or you will get charged again an you tend to die.
stay too close an u tend to die either. win/win for our jugg friend.
to tell u how i perform vs sins would be to much effort. its easiest told if i say i just die. dot.
so where's the problem? am i really that noobish:rak_02: well i wouldn't say it that way. is sorc way too weak:rak_02: thats not it either.
sorc lacks of some minor things like the force speed snare/stun break mentioned. or some execute like shock deals double dmg to targets >35%hp
also we could need some useful 4piece set bonus. pt -> 15% crit chance on railshot. sorc -> +5m range of shock an jolt! YAY!! MUSTHAVE!... NOT
started to play dps with 2 dmg an 2 heal sets cuz those 3s reduced shield cd saved my *** really often until now. way better than 4piece set
bonus
i don't wanna play an OP class but i at least want to be a considerable 1v1 class.
if some ppl say u won't survive vs op/jugg/marauder/pt/merc/assa, which classes are left to survive against ? think about it.
surely the "dps sorc is unplayable" is bs but imho every class should be able to perform at least well against other classes with same eq & skill
an not playin cleaning rag while the oponent has 70% hp left
just my 2 cents

ps: an don't tell me "lol L2P noob" or somethin like that. just wanted to tell my exp on my sorc. also can't tell anything about heal
specc either. i just dont like to play healer.
