Dear ZOS,
If you are reading this, I would like to make a proposal regarding stam sorc, as stam sorcs currently have no in-class DPS skills. Will you please consider making a stamina morph for Crystal Shards in the place of the inferior Magicka morph, "Crystal Blast"? Maybe it could be called "Crystal Strike", and have it function as a single target melee skill. Please let this happen. I hate the entire summoning skill-line, but if I could at least get a stamina morph of Crystal Shards, I would be satisfied.
I'm actually looking to do a new dps character and wanted to use crystal blast but now I'm trying to find something else that does direct and splash damage.
