Hello. My name is Gypcian, been playing sorc in PvP and PvE since 2018. Im trying to wrap my head around why Soul Harvest, Wings of the Crow, BSR for GRJ (Grim Reapers Judgement), and the BSR for TBS (Turn-Back Slash) are getting buffs. Cratians Nightmare is a whatever buff, yall keep buffing this skill as if we want to stand there in SA at the end of a pack to kill them. There are many other skills that would be better damage buffs and these are what you chose.  Whats so wrong with bringing back old violation? Just to give some reference, main combo sorc uses (or atleast i found the best) Midnight stinger - Shadowkick Eruption - C - TBS - Blades of Darkness - SoulHarvest - Violation - SwirlingDarkness - GRJ -  VilePlan - Violation - 2hits deadhunt - SoulReaper - SoulHarvest - Violation. In no combo will we want to use any of the BSR skills you're buffing. Wings of the crow???? where is the logic in buffing this skill.  GRJ was a good choice for a skill to buff I do have to say that.

TURN-BACK SLASH

 The only thing that matters is the final hit damage. This skill will always be animation canceled and used to apply the all evasion rate -3% for 10sec debuff + addons. 

Its a whatever skill buff for PvE.

Soul Harvest

Why are we buffing this skill? The best thing this skill is used for is the casting speed buff +10% for 10sec allowing or freeing up a skill addon at the beginning of PvE combo. Instead of adding a Casting speed buff on Shadow Eruption like we used to do.

WINGS OF THE CROW

No really, I want a balance team member to explain why this is getting buffed for PvE. Do you think that the crit hit rate 40% for 10 sec is something? You have Midnight Stinger that does the same thing. Also you can use Midnight Stinger whenever even from awakening and doesnt feel as janky as Wings of the crow during a combo. I would take another damge buff to Vile Plan over this!

I would really like to see better skills chosen for awk sorc PvE buffs. Swirling Darkness, Soul Reaper, Vile Plan, or even make Blades of Darkness do more damage. Also its a waste to use BSR on the BSR skills you are buffing. 4 out of the 6 changes you are making will have little to no effect on Awk Sorc PvE.
