Combat Maneuvers continues to get fleshed out with a huge diversity of choices, but nothing really helpful or available for sorcerers. Here is all we can do with these important skills:

Tarakan, the following Combat Maneuvers are available for you to train in:

Skill Mnemonic Ranks Cost

---

Combat Mastery cmastery 0/2 4
Combat Movement cmovement 0/5 4
Cunning Defense cdefense 5/5 -
Dirtkick dirtkick 0/5 4
Disarm Weapon disarm 5/5 -
Feint feint 0/5 4
Precision precision 0/2 8
Subdual Strike sstrike 0/5 4
Trip trip 0/5 4
Unarmed Specialist unarmedspec 0/1 12


Historically, as can be seen in my own example, capped sorcerers used their 101 ranks to max Disarm Weapon and max Cunning Defense, leaving one point not used.

It would be great if precision was more practical or beneficial relative to the defensive needs of the other two mainstays. It would also be great if we could gain access to the CM that helps lower the armor penalty for casting. A new CM that provided a second roll when a spell is fumbled and not cast would be great. A CM that prevented self cast kills from 719 when a player actually types to play the game and flubs the cast return combo too fast. Anything at all would be an improvement. Can we please get some love here in this long neglected set of maneuvers?

Thanks!

Tarakan

>>Something useful to use stamina on would be nice

Be a Sunfist sorc, and there's your solution...

No, on a serious note, I would like to see a better CM decision other than CDEF and DISARM as a purely defensive measure.

A CMAN that reduces TD, or somehow increases CS for a sorc or other pure would be really cool, as long as it didn't turn out to be just another stackable CS boost.

Would love a CMAN for multi-cast CS spells, stronger ball/bolt spells, or refined implosion, please.

Dying for Mass 719.
More reliable mass 717.
Mass 701 for greater instant health return.
Would be nice to target multiple limbs with 708.
Would be nice to target multiple targets or multiple areas of one target with focused 720. The insta-vape can be retired.

I also think a mass 719 is reasonable. Literally every semi has a mass CS spell and Sorcerers don't. It's absurd. The game has moved on from the GS4 launch, much to my chagrin, but if the devs are going to pursue a design philosophy of "Screw It, Give Them Everything," then it behooves them to include sorcerers in that.
