Hi all,
Unfortunately given the time zone I am in, I mostly have to solo in RvR. With my wizard this doesn't go very well. So I am thinking of rolling a sorc. Therefore, what spec would people advise here for a solo sorc for RvR? Thanks! |

tl;dr - most common specs: grp cc: 44 mind / 31 body hybrid / solo: 36 mind / 40 body (<- my suggestion for you) dmg / wizz debuffer: 27 mind / 46 body Don't argue with idiots - they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. |

The thing about the hybrid is that it gives 2nd tier debuff (good), 2nd best body dd (cheaper than lifetap on manas) and still allows a fairly good mezz, final pet charm and 4th tier pom. |

So you want to invest 3-5p+++ for a respec before running 8man RvR (if thats the plan)? On 1.65 with those kind of mana problems, no TOA boni to compensate radial-dropoff and Root = Snare = Peeltimer, I would never go so deep into hybrid specc. If you are planning to run 8 man RvR, you have to invest 3-5p+ for a respec stone (if buyable) to be viable. No way with 36 mind (as only Sorc in group)! Either 44 mind (better 46 mind) for quite all group setups OR 45/47 body for last nuke for specialized groups with high body debuff (Have fun finding one, those running with this setup usually have a guild pug). In my opinion, the Sorc Spec is quite unimportant in solo PvE. Higher POM + higher charm (with the right pet) compensates less damage easily. Mind/Body/Hybrid doesn't make a big difference solo, while Mind is the most usefull for group PvE (which you should set your focus on, especially lvl 40+). Regarding the Fire Debuff on Body. There are are only lvl 50 wizards (full scd) that I have seen right now and only one group running with a wizard, while they couldn't really compete with other groups. Without nearsight for wizards, I don't really see that many Fire assist DD groups in the near future (while 2-3 VP could be amazing). Therefore I would always go 44/46 mind and choose the 45/47 body spec, if you have a fixed / planned group where this spec fits in. Is there a timezone where no one is playing on Uthgard, so that you are forced to solo? Just curious. There are free line respecs at 20 and 40. Try out and choose. Greetings |

'nuff said. Don't argue with idiots - they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. |

Wow, how could I overread that? Dual Spec can be amazing for straight solo RvR. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UMGBcnWYY0&t=1067s Good luck. |

Great demonstration of the power of split spec. |

On live server I ran 40 body 36 mind from launch tell lab... did everything from solo, duo, small man and 8man.... I tried every spec and this was the best... I took my sorc to rr9 and ran everything from tank groups to 6 caster groups... you get good dps and cc

Interesting, thanks for sharing your experience... Just curious. What are the arguments for 40 body over 33 body - better dmg variance? Does that weigh more than the 44 AE mezz spell? |
