Did ZOS just delete Sorcs? Murkmire PTS

I love playing PvE mag sorc and this would make me quit

Why shouldn't they continue to nerf things? That's how the game can evolve and stay interesting.

I'll wait to see if they fix this, if they don't then I'm officially done with eso. After 4 years of playing my mag sorc and hundreds of dollars sent to zenimax while playing it, I've earned the right to have a powerful character. 1178 cp points and for what?

They dmg this Game so bad

Hahaha fuc# that System...

Stop click bait

Looks lire you're taking a dump when casting LOL my son couldn't stop laughing….

why is he talking so slow like he's on drugs or something?

zos didnt know what they were doing day 1 what has changed? they band aid everything from day 1 instead of fix

Only thing I like about this is ZOS is making finding motivation to revise for my A levels so much easier.

I like the 1 shield at a time change- shield stacking is the most annoying thing! I can’t express how many times I gave up fighting sorcs because they would constantly bunny hop and spam shields, running around their engine guardian or tree :/

Edit: the 1 second time though looks stupid hahahaha “taking a dump”😂

Imagine being a magwarden with no escapes. My build is a goner.

Do people still play this game I quit 3 months ago it was the best thing I ever did

I’m no try hard or anything, but if sorc users surpass this nerf through , won’t it only show your skill even more? Not saying bend over and accept crazy changes, but this nerf shit isn’t new, evolve and still be a cancer in these stammer-er’s ass💯

whatever...eso has been sorc heavy for too long

@Alcast what do you think the status of the sorc will be now that PTS notes from here on out will mainly just be big fixes?

Really!!! That is really really sh*t what they doing and this tops it all.

I'm just pissed the whole 3rd bar was stripped! Talk about gutting a class

Equip frost staff, hold block, then cast the damn shield...

I don't play my magsorc that often nor do I play pvp due to my new highest character only being level 25 so im not sure why people are complaining about the cast time of shields. It is only 2 seconds and looks to activate pretty fast in this video so what is the problem exactly?

Please nerf also the NB too OP hit like an airplane please................:D

well done ESO good job please nerf the stacking shield please

please nerf more that OP char

Adapt

Hey, did you see the potentially slanderous video ESO Daily, AKA Mystic Raven put out in response to this video? I would say watch it then have a word with your lawyer, but I doubt you would squeeze much out of him if you sued him, unless you got his PS4 in the settlement! Take him out of the game for good!

They should have kept the shields instant cast time in pve instead of pvp.

if they wanna nerf shields just make them decaying other the uptime

Oh well.. Back 2 terra.. ( at least they havent downgraded any of their classes)

Good good i like the casting time magic shields are already broken im not saying casting time solve everything but its start, people just start using only one shield thats simple you cant stop for 2 second and cast both

in further notice, the amount of DPS Nightblades have increased in a 100%

Now they have to actually play a skill character. These shield stackers about to be exposed

They made it worse in 4.2.1 and 4.2.2

This really affects my vma sorcerer build. I dont play pvp sorc much but do have 1. I will not be playing it again.

They really just need to do away with the class system entirely and move to ability trees that can be aquired, like werewolf or fighters guild.

There are so many ways this can be done while allowing for better balance and easier future balance tweaking.. and you dont have to worry about 1/5 your base getting upset when class changes arent what they want while doubly providing that rpg "i created this character" feel that is staple to the elder scrolls universe.

I wouldnt put the second cast time I would just make it to where you can only use 2 shields and not three but at the same time kinda wish they wouldn't Nerf and fix the game so idk what to think

I think they de-nerfed it. For me, it says instant and not 1 sec

Magikca actually taking skill oh my

Who cares? The lag in this game is the real issue this game sucks. So sorcs got a little nerf... the lag didn't get any every since this game got out. NERF THE LAG ZOS!!!

It seems like it's always "NERF SORCS!" How often are sorcs winning dueling tournaments? How often is it that sorcs run Cyrodiil? Sorcs take forever to fill up your bounty quest, which tells me that they aren't so imbalanced that everyone is running them. Nightblades and Dragonknights still fill up faster than Sorcs, and so do Templars, with only Warden bounties being slower.

I'm just sick of the constant nerfing of Sorcs.

Play him at 2x speed and he will talk at normal speed lmao

This is messed up. Sorcs have it hard enough trying to stay alive in Veteran Dungeons and they are important damage dealers. Taking away their sustain will be devastating..

DODGE BLOCK THE NEW SKILL LINE COMPLETELY OVERRIDES THIS NERF PAY ATTENTION TO HOW ELSE TO PLAY

WHAT THE HELL WHY IS THIS CHANGE HURT SO MUCH ITS NOT A ISSUE ITS NOT THAT BAD I CANT TELL
IF THIS IS A JOKE BECAUSE IT DOSE NOTHING

not actually enymore ;)

a damn stupid change that could makes me stop ESO if it comes live

They did this to me with siphoning strikes when I used to play 2 years ago... sucks that they just destroy play styles rather than balancing them

Mag is way way op any damn way I've been wiped out single shots all the time as well as alot of other vet players soooo nerfing mag is finally evening the playing field. Its almost pointless using any other class that does not have magic. So either way it's like past elder scrolls they did magic right to wrong to just flat out Op. To here we are still op. You can barely close in on a sorc soooo most of you need to just stfu seriously. Yes weak defense in exchange for damn near 1 shot abilities seriously get over yourselves.

It makes sorcerers actually think about playing the game rather then mashing their heads on the keyboard. No problem here
