lol. It's not OP because it will negate what, 2 maybe 3 GCDs? Wow man, that's so much. Thats like, the exact amount of time it takes for a sorcerer to kill someone because of their insane burst right? oh wait... And ahhh, the old "Sorcerer is the only competent player" argument. Strong, strong stuff.

Yes because situational awareness in PvP is far too much to ask for.

This. 1v1 against a healer sorc is an attrition race, and DPS will win the attrition because Force runs out quicker than health for a healer getting beat on by a competent player, and because the sorc doesn't have the dps capabilities to keep up with the sentinel.

Implying that you get to choose every battle in a warzone. What about the occasion when a smart player waits for the bubble to drop? Or a smart op waiting for the debuff to be re-applied? Oh I forgot, the only competent player in any situation given is the Sorcerer.

Uhh, faster heals? I'm not going to take less crit/power just for surge. I'm at 70% to get any more I need to waste more and more stats for higher amounts of surge, I see better returns on power because that increases in the base, also increases how much my surge increases.

It's a dps loss because of the new DR on surge though. More power is better, and 58 mods have more crit. I'd also like to point out that more alacrity is a DPS increase because of Lightning Barrage. Anyways, I'm leaving for a bit, I'll reply more when I get back home.

That means I have to raid more. And unfortunately, my guild isn't really a raiding guild, we raid when we're bored. And my server doesn't have much of a market for the 58 mods, so buying them is out of the question right now until more people are able to get them, don't need them, and will sell them. What I don't get is why you would waste points on a crit/surge relic/adrenal for an extra 2& crit? You should be timing their use with Recklessness, so that 2% is essentially unneeded. You get much bigger returns through power every time.

No it doesn't and no they won't. As for your last paragraph, you gotta be careful, people will start calling you bad because the other team is doing what they are supposed to do.

Right, which is why I regularly have over 120k healing every game. I'm saying it shouldn't work that way on myself though.

Well, I regularly have ops in my warzones, whether I queue with one from my guild, or I solo queue. As for my itemization. I cannot affect the way BM gear is itemized, and it currently is a power,crit, alacrity set up naturally. For an idea of my stats, look at this: http://i.imgur.com/Bmu2p.jpg You're right though, I lied, I'm at 36%. I'm also in a mix of PvP/PvE gear to maximize WP because that's more important than expertise at this point.

^ I can break 75k healing by just bubbling myself, and it shouldn't work that way.

Oh, should I post a SS of my character? And I meant unbuffed as in no relic/adrenal. I of course have the 5% from ops.

No, it takes 3.6k.

No it doesn't, it absorbs 3.6k. The person who guarded takes the rest of the damage. They are not the same.

A DPS sorc will run out of Force quite quickly if they have to heal themselves to full. Maybe not at the rate of a Merc/Op, but I'm still wondering why you let the sorc sit out of LoS for so long. Speaking of force, you know what would actually be a good fix for the hybrid? Making the Force regen abilities only work on damaging attacks, so that there is a lot less regen when using healing abilities when not in the healing tree.

Yea you can call me that if you want, but I'd take a base coefficient increase over crit surge everyday because of DR, and the fact that I sit at 38% crit before recklessness.

FYI I play a Sorc.

You don't need to test when there is this magical thing called math.

that's such a terrible generalization. besides, power>crit/surge.

I agree the bubble shouldn't count towards anything really.

lolwut? 3 second cast is a spam? 2.5 second cast for 1.5k-2k is spam? Are you not interrupting or doing damage? Or are you just letting them freecast? Are you alone or do you have teammates?

You're not hitting 4-5k crits in combat with DI, ever, as a DPS build with no points in the healing tree. OOC you're lucky to get a 5k crit with no adrenal/relic popped. That said I think a shadow form would be something nifty, as it's an extra thing to micro manage to play well.

Uhhh, I regularly crit over 5k IC. In fact, if I pop adrenals/relics/reck I can crit over 7k IC.

Well, running 4 meters is alot smaller than having to run 25 or more. Use your head. The way you keep talking, only the other team can CC, and your team has none.

Could they not also root/stun the target though? So that knockback is negated?
