I like the game, I really do. Very well done so far. That said. YOU NEED TO STOP THE ONE TAPPING! I am doing a 58 at level 100 Sorc. TREES ARE ONE SWINGING ME! If I was in a 100, okay, I understand. I am NOWHERE near that though.
I am BIS build for my class. Have about 80% prio gear. Getting 1 tapped. THIS IS NOT FUN AT ALL.
I was looking forward to the seasons, I have purchased the League of Legends battle pass for every release for the four years I have played it, I like progressing through it. But as it stands, I’ll take the ‘free’ pass for season one as it comes with the D4 package I purchased. But if I continue to get one tapped in levels I KNOW other classes do with mere ease, I’m probably done.
To provide context, I am a mythic raider, have achieved cutting edge, typically get legend in hearthstone when I play, so I know games. I pay attention, know how to min/max.
Edit: I know the game is new. But you literally nerfed sorc to the GROUND from your initial public beta test based on level 25 numbers. That was the wrong decision. Much so the wrong decision. Then you have done NOTHING to help us since. You are on your last thread. This 18th patch better do something.

Wolf druid and 59 is the highest I’ve pushed because I die easily. My DPS is fine but the elites hit hard don’t think it’s any better with a different class.

Spec?
Druids actually, from my understanding have it on the easier side right now. You and barbs.
So your saying a cloth class that does crap tons of damage is vulnerable? Ive seen this in 1000 other games lemme remember…

it was chain lighting but i switched to ice shards now
it its with def gear , pants,armor and amulet with 1 def affix on the shield
You’re acting like Barbs aren’t the one that can crit for billions of damage right now. Sorcs have to pick between damage and survivability. They are the only class in the game that has to make that decision and if they pick damage, it’s still not on par with other classes.

Deps Barb build also Sorc build.
But playing a cloth class in most ARPGs usually means def and speed on boots.
But generally cloth classes do more damage than plate / mail. This is not the case right now.
Typically cloth classes are also afford the privilege of being ranged. Also not the case right now.

You are a class with TP and evade, 2 mobility skills, how the hell can a tree’s slow animation land a hit on a sorc? Def is one thing knowing what can or can’t tank from your character is another thing, Best defense is not taking hit. Learn how to stutter step (force move) and dodge stuff in action.

2 mobility skills? You listed teleport which we are mandated to use to engage. What is the second skill?
Outside of your poor grammar, I stated I was a mythic raider and multiple legend achiever in HS. I know games, I acknowledge mechanics and adhere to them. You need to read and pay attention to my initial post, friend.
My issue is that sorcs currently take entirely too much damage.

My sorc DPS is reliant on me being able to have a teleport skill/dash enchant available constantly (which at 5 sec CD i do) and using it correctly because if i mess up in a fight even 4 def skills wont save me from being tapped.
Entire survivability for me comes from low cooldowns and boots with 1.2sec CDR effect for dash. the 4 def skills are for the moments between moving so i can apply dmg without death. I have done up to tier 70 area NMD but cannot just do any sigil types i find.
On a positive note, being forced to either dodge every source of dmg or die is a nice challenge. Barely even get me with the 10,000 layer explosive floor dungeons anymore.

I am okay with this at high level. 90+ sigil this is fine. 100%. But 60+? No. That is ridiculous.

Idk about that my dps is around 1-2.5 mil with purely arc lash hitting on vuln etc. outside of ult. def skills dont add a lot aside from the dps modifiers. When i use unstable currents on top of it i can barely track the numbers but its probably within a range you’d expect.
Also unsure how much attack speed would be a factor, and my dps being held back by subpar amulet.
Your issue is while you are a mythic godly player, you died from a mechanic easily dodgeable from other sorcs or any other class with way slower mobility than you. Sorc is a resist class by design, despite resist isn’t working atm and sorcs doesn’t perform as it should be performing, by design sorcs don’t take heavy hits like tanks do. So what you are a mysthic leader? WoW has supports and healers as well as D3 does, unless you have a barb/druid in party giving you group DR play sorcs as intended.
If you TP the way Raiment is designed to be played into dense mobs, TP resets instantly.

Based on this 1 sentence you probably have a potato build with no clue how DR works and zero defensive stats on gear.

I quite literally have 0 defensive stats on my class, I removed any stat I could realistically replace with damage instead. Boots? Dmg geared. Legs? you bet they are. Chest? You know what chest it is. I as of now currently have 6 paragon boards attached with 6 full level 21 glyphs activated, and a painfully crafted line of +5 stats leading to all the top DPS nodes on each.
Wouldnt recommend for any other class, but with sorc it feels like any defence trade off is 0-0=0 so whatever
He probably copied one of the terrible maxroll guides that has zero defensive stats besides armor on helm and defensive on legs.
He is probably using rainment which has no defensive stats and damage stats on every other slot like the guide.
If you copied this guide expecting to push high nightmare that is your fault.
You need to swap some damage stats for defensives or you have to try and not get hit and offscreen mobs with your damage before they can get to you.
Also you do realize you have to set them on fire with damage so they have DR right? You must have firebolt as an enchant.
Also you need to damage them from far away a little before engaging because you need to stack disobediance.
You can’t just TP on top of them unless you can guarantee to stun them.
