All offensive casters how some way to regen their mana faster. Taproot, vile ritual, etc. As a druid, i never worreid about mana i could taproot it back, as a necro i never ran out of mana because i always used vial ritual.
As a sorc played for a little bit, they were very weak imo. They didn't do the high burst damage i was expecting honestly, my cleric could out damage a sorc it felt like at lower lvls. Maybe they pick up speed later on? However i was looking at sorc end game spells and i still didn't see too many crazy numbers. Their main attack got up to the 1k+ mark, but DKs still have 2 3k nukes by 50. Just tossing out some random info i've come across. I personally think the balance is fine atm, my monk has been out-parsing a sorc when we group in graystone (skeletons FTW!) but oh well.
The mana regen skills, ie Taproot etal, over ride any of the 'run out of mana' comments. Jeez, my Druid basically has infinite mana if the group has a good tank, Necros can harvest the corpses of all the yard trash for basically a complete refill.As a sorc played for a little bit, they were very weak imo.

As to the Sorc being weak, yes and no, once they get Chaos Volley, AND have access to a healer they can basically 1000 Fist chain over and over again and again. Run low on mana? Shift to End using Arcane spells for a bit. I forget what the Sorc 'taproot' skill is called, but they have that as well as getting feedback recovery of mana for many of their spells. Although the feedback recovery is minimal at higher levels.
