As I said, I wasn't against DoTs and spellbinds, but clearly they were a problem because of how fast spellbind recycles. Now with spellbind nerfed, along with binding crystals and some other arcane abilities (like MC phoenix/ MC shining blades). The mage classes seem to have taken a big hit, but among them all, it seems like the SORC is the most out in the cold.
See the following:
Sorc: MC2 / no CoT
Wizard : MC2 / Pulsing Spectrum
Conjurer: MC3 / Glaring Quills
Mage: MC3 / no CoT
My point is simple, SORC needs MC3. And let's not even go into the fact there is no "mind bolt" to which a sorc can turn to for some solace.
