Wow, that must have changed at some point, because it tried to do the same concept a while ago and it didn’t work on any red boss.
Edit: physical damage would still be a bad idea imo, Sphere reduces physical and there is absolutely no support for it on the Arcanist tree. And I guess there is no point in combining crowd control with shield, but that sorc looks awesome, I’m stealing that for my own.
With the recent nerfs to a bunch of sorc related items and abilities, I wonder how well this is going to do atm. Warpfire, aldanar’s vanity, OFF, Devastation, and giant’s blood all took a hit the past few days.
Tbh, only demo have some way to support phys dmg trough temper and shaman in a way. WB relays on now nerfed cof, same as batlemage would rely on AZ to nuke phys resistance to ground. And you dont need sphere to make it work.
