Delavager Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Is there a date for their nerf? We know it will happen Do we know it will happen? Has it been announced yet by BW? It is of my opinion that all of you people will be in for a huge surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn-XGundam Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 only that needs to be nerfed about sage/sorc is there force speed that is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aweus Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Nothing wrong with sorcerer. Y U NO LIEK MY LIGHTNIN? Stupid troll is stupid, when you become the best player in the entire world at your class, I'll consider your opinion on my class being 'OP' valid. Are you a best Sorc in the world then? If not, you opinion is invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deinoking Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I think its not a matter of sorc/sage, comando/BH, the whole thing is that ranged classes are aoverpowered in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maleficium Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) I think its not a matter of sorc/sage, comando/BH, the whole thing is that ranged classes are aoverpowered in this game. My buddy plays a champ geared sentinel and we call him the sleeper class. In his pvp spec he can jump onto a sorc push his buttons in and then I force grip him out before anyone on the other team realizes what happened. Not only that but when we duel I can never cast against him due to him not only having proper knowledge of my class ( he knows what he has to interupt) but he's also really good at keeping me shut down. Melee classes usually tend to have a higher skill cap but if played by someone that knows what they're doing they can easily control a warzone.

SageLaL Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 sorcs are squishy I eat them for breakfast This. People dont seem to realize that they have no defensive cooldowns. Yes the shield is a great spell but once I've focused a sorc its so easy to eat through it and I know for sure they're going to die since they dont have a vanish or cloak or damage reduction cooldowns that they might use. This thread just proves how many people aren't playing their characters properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaluah Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Sorc and sage are the druids of this game. Best pvp healer.. best Pve healer due to mobility and utility. All you sorcs that used your majority whine to get operatives destroyed next patch will soon realise you opened the door to all the cry babies that have no idea about class balance to whine until devs nerf. You will be next followed by every class in the game until all we are left with is lackluster endurance battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orici Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 A couple people mentioned everyone thinks we're 31/31/31. I see the truth in this. They complain about the knockback root... You have to specc into that (at least 12 points into lightning) They complain about our CC (lightning/madness hybrid) They complain about our heals (Need as least 21 into corruption to be effective) You might look at the leader boards after a match and see sorcs at the top of both damage and healing... but its not the SAME sorc. I would be in favor of a change (not nerf) put Lightning barrier in the healing tree where in belongs, and put whatever gives force lightning no cooldown high up in the lightning tree.

Viscerus Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Now that my IA is getting nerfed tomorrow, I will be playing my sorc alt. So hopefully they will hold off for a bit. Upside, I can join all the "all sorc" premades that form up at fleet to grind out wz wins. Maybe instead of trying to play teh FoTM class you should stick with one that you like and learn to work with it while it is balanced... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slonep Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Here's why ppl think Sorcs need a nerf. You're in a WZ and over and over when you're killed all you see is the giant bright FL pounding on you from the Sorc. You don't think about the 2 or 3 other players that are beating on you. It's not the Sniper's fault. It's not that Agent that rooted you. It's all that gd Sorcerer's fault. I say nerf the FL animation and I'm betting ppl stop the *cries* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raque Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Which is still better than non-specced healers can manage. Actually, it is pretty much identically useless in a PvP environment. Really you think a tiny, 3 second cast time, heal is good in anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What. -Electrocute (4s stun, 60s CD) -Overload (Knockback, 20s CD) (Talented add a 5s root) -Force Speed (150% Movement Speed for 2s, 30s CD) And on top of that, you have shields and healing. Get out of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BegaTasty Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 you forum warriors know right there is only 4 classes in tor. making everyone exactly same will turn the game into one of the most boring mundane an pathetic excuses for gaming ever seen. Look at warcraft an rift..... Even a lobotomy would be more fun. only reason you feel classes are over powered lol is because there's lots more of them, sorc has more survivability an dps than 1 or 2 other classes, deal with it. You non DAOC players have never seen an OP class ... tor classes are the most mirrored, the most boring an simply put the simplest class design I have ever seen in over 10 years. None of you who farm an expliot bg's/illum bg work together, you run round like rambo an wonder when someone kills you. You dont have a tank to guard you, you dont have healers to heal you. It seems its better to just spam nerf than actually learn how to play your classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posixgod Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 You realize we get ~30k healing a match from shielding ourselves right? The rest of a "dps sorc" healing comes from self healing for 1600 hp every 3 seconds. The problem with most of you "nerf sorc now" people is you don't understand the class well enough to see how it needs to be nerfed. You're just mad you died in a warzone and come here to complain. You guys all act like we're 31/31/31 specced. Quoting for epic truth in a post full of terribads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BegaTasty Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) such a shame to see all these demands to destroy diversity because of the stupidest mechanic ever seen in MMo's in last 7 years. Force people to world pvp again an all these demands would vanish because it would force people learn how to play their class more.

Eltohan Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Which is still better than non-healing classes can manage. The shield also effectively functions as a heal which puts them over the top of the other classes. Fix'd . To the "poor" sorcerer that has to fire off 5 heals before getting to full life, it's still better than having no heals huh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, if you ignore us we can mitigate a lot of the hazards with our shields on ourselves & others, sprint, & Pulling allies....but why would you let us set up to do that? Attack us and don't let us use those tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
