What are our initial thoughts on Sorcerer and the Season 5 update? Let me know below! Only thing I'm not sure about is Continuous Dungeons - in at least 3 games we played today, players spawned in the module we were fighting in and cooked us; third partied from the lobby! 😂 Randomised Crypts is amazing though, Dark and Darker has needed this for a LONG TIME 🙏
Being able to freely go down is nice, I dont think a new lobby should be made, also maybe a few to many options for gear score. I dont think Sorcerer is OP at all, aside from the storm combo. (I play Iron Will Barb) This is all IMO, W update, W game.
@@Btk780 to add on, I believe that the gate should appear shut to the player trying to run if this happens. This is to prevent it looking like they can leave and just be cornered
Foxman was using Whirlwind and Flamestrike to push people back into the Flamestrike damage, though he was playing solo, which would change some of the spells you'd like to use.
@@MarvinGunkle Hey Marvin! Its an exclusive emote that was given to “Balladeers” today; can’t remember exactly what the criteria is for becoming a Balladeer but it’s essentially Dark and Darker creators who regularly stream/upload content on the game. It was super sweet to login today with it in my emotes, been making videos on the game for over a year now and little things like this mean a lot ❤️
Hahah thats great to hear brother! I tend to go into a lot of detail in my build videos but saved it today for a more in-depth look into Sorcerer in another video. Stay tuned 😁
The tick rate directly correlates with your cast speed. Apex of Sorcery gives you 100% magic damage bonus AND 100% cast speed so it makes Lightning Storm do insane damage and tick at an insane speed too 😅
@@ninetyU nah it tics REALLY fast even without that. 🤷 100% damage increase perk should make you take 50% extra damage while casting imo, then it would make you a total glass cannon, if you can one shot me, i can one shot you
@@acannon2700 i mean even so the perk that gives 100%\100% is still completely busted for the projectile combo spells bc those will also insta kill too
@@ninetyU ive tested it, they dont one shot everybody, just low health classes, from what i teated. (In under 25 admittedly, but with a full Will kit.) Time will tell
@@UncleMommy13 hello my friend! I use OBS to record my gameplay and use Davinci Resolve to edit. I’m no expert but there are tonnes of great tutorials on UA-cam to help you get started 😁
I tested it and it doesn't cast if your crosshair is pointing at a player\mob. To cast this spell successfully, you must point to the ground where there is no one.
Yeeee I took that spell off because it was constantly failing..... Got so annoying. But it was destroying mobs like it was nothing when it actually worked! Also try combining wind push back with the fire surging from the ground.... Insane combo. Can't think of the names.... At work 🤣 . Edit : at first I wasn't feeling sorcerer until I learnt u can continue bhoping the movement speed penalty a bit. And that I'm watching videos on the class I'm even more excited to play when I get off work and try these combos n spells out
@@JustinFetters I feel you brother, this spell is mad buggy. I’d say like 25% of the time it doesn’t cast and still goes on cooldown 💀 we’ve tried to find out why it’s happening but haven’t got anything consistent so far. I guess that’s the trade off for using a spell that can nuke an entire team 🤣 Hope your work shift finishes soon so you can get back into the action 🙏
@@JarPapa played only sorc today, from what ive understood about the lightningstorm is that it cancels if: A dead mob is close to your cursor A unit walks between your cursor and the ground your aiming at Moving Game just being buggy most consistency ive gotten is aiming at clear ground close to enemies insted of at them
@@stephen827 besides this spell (which is definitely getting nerfed), Wizard has so much more burst in comparison to Sorcerer in exchange for the spell count. I honestly think it’s fine as it is; Wiz for burst, Warlock for extended fight/sustain, Sorc for utility, spell diversity, damage etc
@@JarPapasorcerer spells literally do have x3 of wizard damage. Can wizard one shot an entire team in 1 combo spell? Can wizard one shot a ranger with fireball body hit? Can wizard block the door entrance with wall of flame?? Sorcerer definitely can
@@sperrex465 in its current untested, completely broken iteration, yes. But as I said, this is all going to get nerfed soon and Wizard will be the spell-count burst class and Sorceror will be the spell slinging cooldown class with less damage. We can't look at this version of Sorc as the final version; part of the reason I made this video was to raise awareness of how stupidly broken this is so Iron Mace will fix it. Thanks for watching 😁
They're gonna nerf storm, but hopefully they make it strong. Wizard has caught up and is much better to play nowadays. Casters are in a better spot now with how base gear is statted.
@@hobosnake1 And they are still countered by rangers, i was smoking quite a few today. Def feels like theres some better Rock Paper Scissors balance rather than just
Haha sorcerer is a bit much fr hoping they give other classes more abilities bcus this is just overtuned game breaking and just way too much space/util to be held from one class boring for other people that don’t want to play the op stuff XD
I agree brother. No doubt this will get nerfed soon; I actually want to have fun experimenting with different builds on the class but right now you're trolling if you're not running any other setup because of how OP it is. Hoping a quick fix comes soon 🙏

I really don't like that people can initiate a fight and then just run for a static W video tho jar
I would say if you have taken damage from a player still alive, make it so you can't leave for 10 seconds from the last damage instance
Yeah it seems a bit dumb. They definitely need to rework Continuous Dungeons in some way, its just not working right now imo
@@mellowdarkness3344 something like that is a great idea
@@JarPapaThey need to remove continous dungeons

It’s not yapping. Showing the build and theory crafting is the main reason I’m here.

Fire intro, brother
@@TheUnexpectedTriple thank you my friend 🙏
if ur running 3 mans, ice block is pretty good to have to give time for teammates to help out
Im convinced lightning storm has an integer wrong that sets the damage tic rate lmao. I think it has the flamethrowers tic rate by accident. (I hope)
bro it’s just the fucking perk that gives you 100% magical damage

What do you use to record and edit your videos?

@ awesome thank you dude and keep up the videos i always watch when you pop up!
Why doesn’t my lighting storm initiate? I can’t load the spell but when I cast it it doesn’t initiate
mine fizzles out very often too, hopefully they improve that after nerfing it into the ground

@@FacelessLemonade tks Bro🗿
Sorc isnt even THAT op..... except for lightning storm. That thing is actually busted. Its so scary and does so much dmg

I believe you were probably canceling it by accident by moving. It might be channeled.

@@JarPapa 💜💜🔥🔥🔥🤟🤟
@@JarPapa played only sorc today, from what ive understood about the lightningstorm is that it cancels if:
A dead mob is close to your cursor
A unit walks between your cursor and the ground your aiming at
Moving
Game just being buggy
most consistency ive gotten is aiming at clear ground close to enemies insted of at them
they need to rework wiz now to use cooldowns instead of charges

that was supposed to be the difference between the two of them
@@JarPapayeah but sorcerer spells do way too much dmg
