a question about pSorscha

[Balewin]

So I'm really wondering why people say that Sorscha is so bad now all of a sudden? Everybody complains about wind rush now only being +2def and shake off making her feat "useless". I seriously am NOT seeing it. I mean DEF 18 is still nothing to scoff at and still leaves her pretty damn hard to hit. As for her feat, sure people can shake off stationary now, but in my experience when you use her feat, you're already going for the kill. I have NEVER heard of or seen somebody using her feat to set up their win turn. The feat is SUPPOSED to be your win turn. I still think she's an incredibly solid caster and I just want to know why there's so much apparent hate due to some changes.

She's not bad, but she took a direct nerf to Wind Rush, and an indirect nerf to her feat, Tempest, and Ice Cage. Her feat use to be a set up or a kill feat, now it can really on be used as a kill feat, same with her spells.

Its dumb to say she's bad now, but she just isn't as good

I'll give my two cents. This was my fav caster to play and now I am going to have to take a second look at her.

First her feat and spell was really squashed. It was changed to require LOS , then there is shake, finally there are immunities to cold which includeds the feat and spell.

The lower defense etc. well there are just other casters that look better. I hope she still works though because her and widowmakers were why I decided on Khador.

I think part of it is based on what she was. When she could get to DEF 20 previously, DEF 18 is a nerf, plain and simple. Same with her feat-- Shake Effects has diminished its effectiveness against certain models. That doesn't mean it isn't still useful, but it does mean that it isn't as useful as it was before.
