Burn builds continue to lag behind in the endgame for a few reasons we dont have a way to increase burn durations like other classes can for their dots. Our glyphs are bad and give cold damage and damage to healthy targets instead of scaling fire dot and also focus on pack rarher than single target. Pyromaniac only works on the searing heat board and only increase like 3 nodes for a minimal amount of fire damage and the rest of the board only benefits direct fire damage and crit builds which is fine but the glyph needs to changed to be useful and certainly on other boards that will benefit the build.
We lost the temper for fire dot leaving only fire damage and 3 useless things in the same temper manual. Fire damage doesn’t interact with our aspects that increase burning damage. We cant take advantage of endless pyres effect that was moved from engulfing flames where you deal increased damage to enemies who have more dot than life because again we don’t build up dot, it is all instantaneous damage. We need to be able to scale the duration and we need our glyphs to not be terrible.
I should mention this feedback includes the state of burning sorc in the PTR. For some reason i was unable to post in the ptr forum.
