And once again... the sorcerer was nerfed

The devs have a insane crusade against the sorcerer.
If this really sad.
now the Sorcerer has ZERO chances of torment 12 survival.
The most nerfed class in the game, getting more nerfs…
sad

Nerfed ball lightning (sorc was in such a bad state, that the Sh17-show of zir was done showcasing this build)
Nerfed lightning spear to the point is useless
Nerfed Hydra, now is garbage
Nerfed Inferno Build
Nerfed Meteor Build (gradually)
Nerfed Frozen orb (That was quick)
Nerfed Chain Lightning (only lasting one season)
nerfed the aspect of Splinter energy
Nerfed the Serpentine aspect
Nerfed the Fractured Winterglass
Nerfed Crackling Enengy, Now the Gear requirement is not only harder, also futile
Nerfed the orsivane, making it a garbage mace as bad a s flamescar
Nerfed esadora’s, now the dame does not scale even 50%
Nerfed Torch Glhyp and the flameFedder node, killing incinerate
Nerfed ice spikes blizzard on season 6, totally garbage
Nerfed Tal’Rasha ring…Now is another unique garbage that has no use for any build
Nerfed teleport, with a damned 3 second cooldown
Nerfed Flame Shield with the time

is one nerf after another… one damned nerf after another damned nerf
Why the devs Hate this class? Why they are so into this obsession of making the sorcerer UNPLAYABLE?
looks like they want no sorcerer in sight with these changes and the community silent as always!!

These devs NEVER LEARN!!! and in my case they are almost making I will no longer pay a dime on battelpasses and forget about this game…
if many sorcs on this forum would do the same, things would change, but nobody cares or dares…
Too bad, too bad I’m not a person of great influence on Blizzard, I swear The Whole Diablo Team would be collecting UNEMPLOYMENT!

And it’s still facerolling pit 120 as first place minus SB’s bug. Meanwhile the druid nerf was even more severe, they barely do 100 using any core skill.

i refused to buy the new xpac

logged in to see the changes to learn 1 node on every skille (like 15+ skills on the tree or more) makes 1/3rd of the entire class abilities unplayable because of pay wall for DLC

unlocked t6 to realize all the tiers just have different rewards and are all the same thing

played a few days to learn its a slog fest with no aspects dropping and they want you to no life the aspect farming just to be able to create any kind of build at all to get anywhere in the game at all

logged out til next season

Necro got nerfed, sorc got nerfed, wheres the fun stuff to play?

Blizzard wasnt even that strong what are they on

why pit 120, if the paladin and the warlock can clear 150?

Link? I didn’t see that yet. Also sorc is 128 now, the best one aside from bugged SB. Druid is dead last, and can’t even use core skills past 100. Real bad class oof why did they nerf LS.

128 on day 4 is nuts.

congratulations. Mr. Troll… you earned and ignored vacation on my list

It always happened when Blizzard launched a new expansion. They intentionally handicapped the old classes to boost the sales of new expansions. Usually after 2 seasons, dev rebuffed them again to balance the game. No hard feeling, it is just business

Correcting ridiculous damage scaling BUGS right after the season started is not called nerfing, its called “bug fixing”. Something I would like to continue seeing from the current group of devs as opposed to the past where obvious broken bugged mechanics were allowed to persist an entire season.

True, wanting just a little bit semblance of balance in a game is definitely trolling.

Indeed.

I don’t know if it helps if someone sees this beyond armchair warriors in the forum dept, but I quit this game a while ago because they couldn’t balance a flat board on flat ground if they tried. They also have some kind of problem with the concept of “fun” in this game. I’ll stick to the games that are actually fun and not frustrating. Live service or not, these indie devs need to realize what fun in video gaming is. The new kids on the block have and these old school tropes are gunna die if they wake up.

edit this isn’t about sorc, its about all the classes combined. And yes, bugs should be fixed, but they fix the fun out the game too much as well.

I really like the sorc and I hope they get a spiritborn/paladin boost one season. Maybe they can pretend the sorc is a new paid class one season and have it go back to some fun instea zipping around the full world and deleting everything in its wake

all I wish for, is all classes the be able to clear all the content
I wish all classes to have the same power.
that does not mean that pit 150 shall be clear in 3 mins, but the power enough to clear it with some effort.

A bug fix is not a nerf. It literally says fixed an issue that was not intended. It means they had it scaled a certain way to a certain level but it was functioning improperly and doing more than they intended to when they implemented it into the game.

“Don’t bug fix me bro!”

sorry bro, but they used to leave those kind of bugs until end of season, remember?
