I found battle SAGE pretty interesting. (I did switch to pure caster upon transcending, however, since I wanted to spam AoEs as a sorc.) Hindsight adds significant DPS even without a soul link (although the link really does make a high aspd melee sage much better and more visually entertaining /swt). Free casting lv10 on top of that with a phen card and/or safety wall boosts DPS a bit more, and tossing in a heal clip will reduce item usage pretty much to just aspd pots. If general autocasting is your thing, though, I'm told (though never tested) that hindsight spells and autocast gear/card spells won't proc on the same melee hit...

This is cause while attacking, free cast allows u to cast the lvl 10 bolt simultaneously and converge it into Fist spell, and per hit you will deal damage equavalent of a lvl 15 bolt. which would be about 3K damage per hit for the next 6 hits.

Battle Sages requires you to sink AGI and STR into your build. That would sacrifice the amount of INT and DEX that you can add. which is definitely going to affect your manual casting. Your spells will be slower, and they will deal less damage.
It is fortunate there is a weapon called dagger of counter which battle sages can uses. gives +90 crit. so you would be able to hit anything regardless of flee. Why I say manual casting the 3rd class spells defeats the purpose of a HS battle sage is becos, as a HS battle sage, you should only manual cast lvl 10 cold or fire bolt with 2x Siroma or Imp Clips, and not those 3rd class skills. This is cause while attacking, free cast allows u to cast the lvl 10 bolt simultaneously and converge it into Fist spell, and per hit you will deal damage equavalent of a lvl 15 bolt. which would be about 3K damage per hit for the next 6 hits. Sounds nice... But bear in mind a 120 Int Sorc can cast a skill called psysic wave which does 3K++ Damage x7 waves... and its 11x11 AOE. With only 1 second cast delay. Much faster than you will need to make 7 melee hits.
Seeing that, unless they include 3rd class skills in hindsight, I really don't see a point in battle sage builds anymore.

If an experienced player does 2k damage per Lv10 Bolt (with the right element) it means that something is wrong

I did the calculation using a Dagger of counter.

A fun option to screw around with on a battle sorc is a fire walk/lightning walk build. Just mob and make monsters chase you while they run into your trail.
