  • I was planning on continuing my sorc even if they didn’t get any buffs because I enjoy the play style.

    After the patch was live I entered a NM dungeon using the lowest sigil I had on me. I didn’t even complete the first objective. It was a complete bloodbath.

    I might just stack defensive stats everywhere with a sprinkling of thorns so that I can stand and cry in a corner until people smarter than me can figure out if any of the gems make us semi-useful.

    God knows our new “unique” doesn’t offer any hope. It actually provides us with a refreshing new way to die, teleport roulette!

    Ultimately, I don’t know. I’ll probably slam my head against the wall with a chain-lightning sorc for a while like I’ve been doing since release. I’m a stubborn cow and I (stupidly) live in hope of a miracle.

    Maybe I need to just ignore all of the paragon boards apart from the two lightning ones and just fill every single node. There’s some kind of big brain Da Vinci code shit in there somewhere, there must be…. Some kind of cheat code that makes sorcs not suck. It will be my mission to find it.



  • I don’t necessarily agree with the builds thing if you are purely playing solo. As long as things are dying at a rate you’re happy with then that’s fine - you only really notice it when you are doing helltides and a wandering Druid obliterates everything in the blink of an eye.

    I started off following a build (I play sorc) but I really didn’t enjoy the play style. I ended up doing my own thing and it’s turned out alright. I’m 95 now and I’m grinding NM at 48-50 because apparently going higher is pointless, general trash dies instantly/quickly in most cases, and I can still kill the butcher. I could kill things faster but I’d have to ditch a load of defensive stats and I’m already being one shot by random ranged mobs - but that’s the life of a sorc I guess.

    I’ll look at guides later on when people have figured things out a bit better. Sorc guides seem a bit half-arsed atm because let’s face it, no one is playing sorc lol.

    Plus… I’m totally getting some buffs today which will change everything, right…? Right…?

    Please can I have some buffs? ._.

    Aside from that, I completely agree, nothing explains how the game works which is frustrating and you absolutely need game guides. I was taking the scenic route through the campaign and then around level 30 I was thinking “when do I get that damn horse…” I thought it would be kinda like wow I guess, you hit a certain level and someone chucks a quest at you for your mount. Then I looked it up and discovered you need to get through a big chunk of the campaign, that pissed me off. Could have had the damn horse ages ago.
