GRINnBARRETT Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) The biggest thing that struck me was the lack of objective play. In a WZ that was basically built for a sorc, that's pretty unforgivable. You best defense in Huttball is elevation, elevation, elevation; and after that LOS. Too many times you jump down to escape & lost tactical advantage. LOS isn't just something you do when you need a heal. You burnt an instant cc a couple of times when you simply could have LOS the add. Also your aoe knockbacks could have been better positioned. I'm not trying to bash, just thought I'd offer up my opinion since you posted. Lightning shows have to be pretty spectacular in order to get my attention.

biowareftw Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) I prefer this video. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=314516 The additional things you did could be done on a xbox controller. Dot and hit proc. Which brings us to... Why the hell would anyone ever watch a sorc/sage pvp video to begin with? Everyone on this board with a mouse and a keyboard can be a "pro". You don't even need a damn gaming mouse like you do with other classes in this game. In beta when I reported the hybrid spec as the most OP ranged class I have ever played in any MMO, I sure as hell wasn't impressed when I led dmg by 2 to 1 in every game... Making a video of it? LOL. What do you time? Nothing. How about "combos"? The procs give a lot of leeway time and you are spamming one button between them and the dots. What do you have to watch? Nothing. The bubble going off is highly visual, so you cast it again? About the only skill involved in playing a sage/sorc is CC/slow force sprint to LOS (which is every 10 feet in a warzone) healing to full and then doing the same herp/derp things all over again. Add to that throwing the best instant heal in the game (shields) on other players because there is no offensive dispel mechanic. Watch a disc priest or shadow priest video in WoW. Same class with harder playstyle, and actual cast times. Sage/Sorc is like a vanilla shadow priest that is made so carebears can make videos and think they "pwn". SPAMMING one spell 80 percent of the time! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWR. Set this to metal music RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR. Before you think this is a personal attack? Wrong. This is an attack on the design team. The class was so boring and dumbed down that I couldn't possibly enjoy it. The only possible worse design decision in the game was given to commando/mercs, which means there is one "fun" ranged class to play in this game. Slinger/sniper. Anyways enjoy your nerfs because you are a dime a dozen and the 10-49 bracket is filled with other "leet" ranged (aka bad melee/slinger/snipers who were forced to reroll so they can be as good as you) lol.

Well, i enjoy watching sorc videos, to see how other people play. maybe i get some input to improve my play and/or i get some other spec ideas. yeah you got it, it is the class design. this class relies on forcelightning procs, especially when you are hybrid (not heal though). so how are you supposed to play it in an other way unless you want to gimp yourself. madness is quite strong aswell but not entertaining, at least for me. i played a warrior in wow from vanilla to tft, so dont tell me anything about faceroll stuff. i didnt count this as a personal attack, because i never claimed to be pro. i didnt cut the video to look like a superhero. yeah, sorc is quite easy to play and you shine early, but there is more to this class than FL-spam as you tried to show off in your link. i saw this vid earlier and against any decent player you cant pull this **** off. may i ask what class you play, sir?
