Logged in to my magsorc for the first time in a long time after seeing the hardened ward charge. Was wearing crafty and Amber plasma with no mythic... Been a long time.

What is the addon that you are using when skills are expiring or proc’d. Is that action duration reminder?

[@brettdaprile6595]

Would love to see your setup in duels !!!! Hopefully you can make another video on that

Great build video and gameplay

[@Hey-Jensen]

Thanks Centurion. See you out there!

[@M0nkstradamus-_]

Have you updated the build where u running vate staff on your sorc recently ? 🤔

[@ragequitgaming2490]

This is outdated i dont think anyones running mag this high currently. also more hp

[@auxtrem]

Im loving elemental weapon , i felt the same when using it more burst , but weaving can be trouble and with overcharge sometimes it bugs light atk and cant ligh atk 😂, maybe some time can you make a short video about weaving elemental ,ty ty ❤

[@AlmightyBeezy]

Another question. When looking at back bar recovery sets, why is Wretched the goto when Lich gives more (arguably) than this plus more needed lines including Max Magicka? Or any other back bar set?

[@andrewpennington1338]

it gives both recovs not just mag its the same reason amberplasm was meta for a long time

[@AlmightyBeezy]

@@andrewpennington1338 just a debate point, but why would a mag Sorc need or want Stam recovery if they are trying to maximize their main resource.

[@andrewpennington1338]

@@AlmightyBeezy you still need stam sustain to block roll dodge or bash even on mag classes

[@IncultaWolf]

Haha we were running a group of 8 sorcs in IC earlier and saw you and react running around on magsorc, the class is definitely S tier this patch.

[@Hey-Jensen]

Keep it on the dl but I actually beat react one time 😂 then we dueled again and had a 30 min stale.

[@SlaysMN]

All the mag sorcs that were still bodying people with a sub par class. It is our time.. bow before the grand wizards 🧙‍♂️

[@FlippedClipz]

What’s the add on your using to display Target buffs / debuffs , your buffs / debuffs ? Is that just S’rendarr

[@nickleotsakos7146]

Curious why you go with mighty chudan instead of dropping bound aegis backbar and incorporating a different monster? Is the max mag on Bbar useful for haunting curse damage? Also, no mages wraith? Or is there a bigger picture I’m missing

[@OreoTheDJ]

bigger picture is passive 8 percent max mag and minor resolve on both bars with major resolve, saving you bar space and resources from not having to cast two abilities constantly

[@rwmorris35]

Not running stage three vamp? Or are you? Hard to tell Also, what do you think about subbing Molag Kena in for Chudan? Seems like you could work two consecutive LAs in pretty easily, and get a huge burst to damage

[@Hey-Jensen]

Not running vamp

[@fmahoney2]

Just returning to game. When i left (5 yrs ago), it was common to use a combo of well-fitted and impen traits. Shocked to see divines primarily used for pvp, is this common/meta now or no?

[@Hey-Jensen]

yeah for sorc its great

[@Kintamani1402]

I like this build..but have problem with elemental weapon weaving..seems much easier to go with force shock

[@Hey-Jensen]

Yeah high ping ele weapon will be hard to weave,

[@whollyhyperion]

Staple build, however it needs more medium because of zergs. And i would also like to see your survivability in OW, I would think that you get nuked without Ironclad

[@Hey-Jensen]

OW video coming soon. It works great because of the large shields but I do slot ironclad, atro mundus, and sugar skulls.

[@guillaumemayan8400]

hey, can i slot in markyn over ddf? i dont have it... or is there nay better choices out there? nice build!!

[@Hey-Jensen]

Yeah it just won’t be meta but should work

[@olegkonis5789]

New to Sorc, can you do a vid maybe or the rotation

[@250Cent]

Are lighting and inferno interchangeable or is lighting straight meta? I know inferno would give more dots vs direct damage just wonderin

[@Hey-Jensen]

Lightning staff is meta. Inferno will do a lot less damage

[@250Cent]

[@ionut-cristianratoi7692]

Are you also using sharpened for Shock as well?

[@diogolessa7225]

does infused on big armor pieces gives more magicka than divines?

[@Gleandra]

This may seem a little consequence, but how reliable is the stamina drain enchant without a charged trait? I see it procing for you quite often, but I am not familar with present day proc chances.

[@Hey-Jensen]

I think you’re confused running the charged trait does not crock your enhance more often. It procs your status effects more often.

[@Gleandra]

@@Hey-Jensen Yes, this is what I mean. It increases the chance for minor breech ot proc from the enchant. Is the chance still high enough without charged?

[@Hey-Jensen]

@@Gleandra For me yes, but more importantly, I wouldnt drop the sharened trait for charged.

[@AlmightyBeezy]

You didn’t show but I would assume your overall penetration is on the lower side. How do you feel this does against those tankier builds? Those fights tend to be long and very drawn out. Does the Absorb Stam help with that more

[@Hey-Jensen]

Penetration shows to the left of the mundus. It’s 7.7k on fb and increases due to force of nature my avg pen is 13k. Anyone who runs a tank just to tank will be hard to kill in any 1v1 but this build does a lot of damage and will give the most pressure.

[@theemryexperience]

mayb u know this alredy but... if u make ur mask infused u get about 40 more magicka pre buffed :D

[@Hey-Jensen]

Yep, I say that in the video.

[@theemryexperience]

@@Hey-Jensen oh sry :D dont mind me then. nice build!

[@StephonRKell]

Why ele weapon over crushing weapon? ? Is there a benefit of using the mag morph?

[@Hey-Jensen]

Can’t sustain crushing and also we are already getting major breach from ele sus

[@eng.gabrielmorais9643]

How big was ur shield? And… 55k max mag would be before DDF?

[@Hey-Jensen]

Yes shields are 15.5k in pvp

[@zachrobinson5304]

@Hey-Jensen Wouldn't you need impen to resist crit damage or does that not work against Hardened Ward?

[@Hey-Jensen]

I’ve noticed some impending would be nice

[@darkenigma3]

Careful. Do you know who you're talking to?

[@geraltgrey-mane695]

not been much into pvp at all, so I was wondering what kind of pve content can you do with this build? My wife wanted to try some pvp so been looking up some for her haha :D We are both Sorc, but she plays on a templar and I an Arcanist as well. We mainly doing solo builds or pve builds. Is this a pvp noob friendly ? :D

[@Hey-Jensen]

Check out xynodes lazy sorc build for pve. These changes make sorc an easy carry in pve content.

broooo gotta ask. how do you get the Might Chudan shoulders now? I dont see where to buy it with pledges. I have the head from Vet mode, but cant find any info on the shoulders

[@JessRaiden]

Is there anything i need to change if im high elf ?

[@malsih5557]

Actually high elf is pretty similar, but you should use dark conversion a little bit more than breton. Cause you will have about 205 additional stam regen per 2 seconds. You can also change 1 jewelry enchantment for mag regen instead of damage if you are struggling with mana regen. But anyway high elf is just a bit worse imo because breton has spell res. Answering your question: you actually can keep everything like in this build, there is no much difference except dark conversion that i mentioned before. You should utilize your additional stam regen and get some mag back to negate your absence of that 7% reduction that breton has, but don't go crazy with that :p
