justadude Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hi, with the changes to the companion system I am considering rolling a new toon. While I have a leveled Shadow I am considering a Sage to use as a healer in group content. I like to deal damage while leveling and was wondering how dps specs are.

TitusOfTides Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Both specs are really easy to level with. Even if you were to level up as a healer you would be able to DPS through just about any situation. Forcequake is very strong on all disciplines, especially if you grab the 25% utility. I've levelled up one of each character, and the only characters that have had an easier experience levelling were stealth classes because you can sneak past everything. With even a healer Sage you will speed through content at a similar pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenesi Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Too early to say yet - need math-brains to do their thing. Madness was absolutely useless in 3.0 PVE, and it's hard to tell how it will do with 4.0 reworks. And lightning looks broken in regards of crit-surge convertion, which, potentially, makes it less viable as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master-Nala Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 PvP - Absolutely PvE - Yes, absolutely. Perhaps the only place Sages might have some problem is that they aren't top DPS, but that matter only for HM/NiM operations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalzyk Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Telekinetic is bottom of the barrel now Yeah, but madeness/balance seems like it might be decent now, and telekinetics seems a bit bugged, so we'll see. Odds are they won't be top dps though, just decent dps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astromagi Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I have a level 35 sage and it gets better as you progress.. I say try it out if you want to. Level it for awhile. If you don't like it then delete it.. The companions heal you like a champ so you basically never die lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
