Sorcery wishlist

[OmniHeckinInu]

This. I remember that you participated on the last post I made about this change in particular. While I fully agree that the Rolling Thrust change a lot, I think that some other needs which perhaps hit even harder came before this:

@OmniHeckinInu

Let’s take a look at a few nerfs from the Age of War Chapters.

1. AoW Chapter 1: The root of all issues… The issues did not begin at this point, but it’s all baked into this change. The following nerfs compounded and escalated the issue.

@Ignasi

Stamina cost for weapons have been greatly increased, from numbers ranging 3-9 to numbers ranging 10-40

2. AoW Chapter 2: Hyperarmor with Heavy weapons has been nearly cut from the game. Good luck not getting interrupted.
3. AoW Chapter 2: Steel Thewed perk change- Maximum damage taken has risen from 25% to 33%. If you get interrupted by daggers in nerf one you might be as good as dead.
4. AoW Chapter 4: Rolling Thrust has been nerfed and now the following attack after rolling still consumes Stamina. The timer could have been shortened but instead or stamina cost just be reduced, but now one big avenue for Corrupted play is gone.
5. AoW Chapter 4: Stamina regen after rolls was slowed. I actually really agree with this change, but it is still a nerf that hurts these builds.

Rolling Thrust hurt, but it’s been getting worse for a while.

I also posted a new guide to my best ways to combat the current struggles of Corruption here:

OmniHeckinInu’s UNOFFICIAL Guide to Corruption Builds [Conan Corruption Intro] Introduction: Hello Exiles, As some of you already know, I’m a Corruption Build enthusiast in no small way. The gameplay factors that drive these Builds create highly focused risk-reward factors more similar to some of my favorite games. I have fun with these Builds despite their volatile nature and am aware of nearly all of their strengths and weaknesses… Not that they’re so inconspicuous. What might be l…

To address your topic, @Scorpy, I agree that an additional summon would make a good “mobile” Summon. Perhaps the Summon(s) would not take the place of Thralls. This could be a Sorcery cast with the staff, to add a Summon to the Sorcery list that had a little more direction than the Raise Dead Sorcery. These differences could make it more flexible than the Summon Demon Sorcery @Dzonatas mentioned above.

healing spells would be nice

Healing Sorceries might be okay, but I feel like between Grotesque Excrescence, Resurgence, and Glutton for Punishment, Corruption Builds have enough Healing to keep up with their limited Health… but… if the heal could be cast as an AoE, including to enemies (for balance), I find this to be a good option. It would help the Corruption Builds more due to lower Health total, and would help play support to both Thralls and Clanmates since you have the choice to cast if it seems to be a good idea.
