Why BW has a range KD when the sorc has none ?

Why BW has a debuff heal when sorc has none ?

Why BW has a snare when sorc has none ?


There is a huge and powerful unbalance between BW and Sorc that make the sorc on the ground and the BW on the top in any situation .

1. Troll ability. For yourself and others. You miss out on a lot of skills and tactics for one troll move.
If you’re going to complain about a 13 point ability, complain about fireball barrage.
2. Worst one in the game. Easily cleansed. Long cool down. Waste of gcd.
Shaman had the same one but it was buffed. 9 point vs 5
3. Sorc has a snare, but it’s not channeled .

This perceived “power gap” is greatly exaggerated.

I think we can all agree that Sorc having no useful M4s is something that needs to be addressed.

All classes have powerful, fight-changing M4's, the combined efforts of which can decide the outcomes of forts and keeps.

The Sorc has not, and I see no reasonable explanation for this.

Since cap targets changed from 9 to 24 nobody cares about ST, AoE is king. BW AoE >> Sorc AoE

I would assume Sorcs could "easily" perform the same. I just spent 5 minuts theorycrafting the best potential targetdummy-killer build and fished for a pure crit session for like 5minuts to get that result. With no Event item for extra int, and no talisman in my Sentinel ring. So room for slight improvements.

Since i got draggin to this, mind if i ask you about this difference because when i ran some scaling tests on BW over a year ago Slowboil really supriced me how badly it scaled with Masterypoints:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/125k ... H7Hqg/edit

"0point immolation:
Ignite ticks for: 229
Boilingblood hits for: 626
Slow boil hits dummy for: 360

1point immolation:
Ignite ticks for: 233 (+4 per masterypoint)
Boilingblood hits for: 636 (+10 per masterypoint)
Slow boil hits dummy for: 361 (+1 per mastery point)"

(From the document test link)

For pug stomp both are great ..for high end organised fights 24vs24 i would take none of them (thanks gods/devs that mara stack is not meta anymore) but if i would need to chose i would take rather sorceress taking into consideration synergies which it may provide. You don't have to believe me - especially im talking something that is not commonly approved - your choice.
