Basically what the subject says, if built right ofcourse will they be wanted in groups? full water/earth lines I mean. Any insight would be greatly appreciated before I get too high in level to want to remake.

Sorcs in raids are expected to be Hybrid Off-healers and DPS in RO2SEA. As a main healer in 5-man Normal and Hard dungeon runs, you might need to do a little amount of convincing that you could support the entire party. It is possible, if not better than a FS Priest because on some dungeons a Sorc's group healing is sufficient enough that he/she could still contribute DPS.

As a main healer in 10-man raids however... I don't think a FS Sorc could ever replace a Priest's contingency measures. Two sorcs are usually recruited on a raid and both are expected to do a fair amount of DPS. The sorcs' DPS is crucial because of raid boss` rage timers, being a dedicated FS Sorc instead of a balanced Hybrid build might get your party in trouble assuming that there are already 2 main healing Priests in your party.

So... I don't know, I've never seen 3 Sorcs 1 Priest or 4 Sorcs support team in raids to be honest. As a player, I would frown upon it. The equipment loot distribution is going to be an issue amongst the sorcs as well.

There was a time when FS Sorcs used to be viable in RO2SEA even to the point of having greater healing output than a FS Priest. Then they took a NERF to the knee.

Here's the story:

(Only read till post 29, the rest of the posts are irrelevant thread necro)

tl;dr
Go Hybrid!

Like as say RevLove , I think sorc hybrid will be more searched for dungeon, sorc has a hight dps with jupital thunder and Varetyr's spear and can make a nice second support with LoR and the monotarget heal ( LoR on the tanker and other heal to help the priest if he can heal all ppl at the same time)

( LoR on the tanker and other heal to help the priest if he can heal all ppl at the same time)

lor on DPS!! heal on DPS... u have to heal PRIESTS not the tank... priest heal 900hp/1700crit as now, lor 200/300 every 2 seconds :/ hybrid Sorc are the best when they put all on AGI and after 50AGI the remaining on Int!
