I'm starting to question if sorceries are actually good in PvP now

[Just Simple]

Like, I assume its good in PvE the players using sorceries build were easy to defeat in PvP so far and the spells were easy to dodge too
(Note: As of writing, I'm using a level 58 pure str build)
also sorry if my grammar is bad

Some are better than others. Adula's Moonblade for example is a good one in pvp.

Most guys spam either stars of ruin or pebbles and darts - those people suck and are borring.

Sorcery is pretty good and fun to use if you combine it with standard weapon attacks - works for me great and I have in mind some sorcery combos that land 90% of the time and dont involve stars of ruin. Carian slicer hits quite hard and is very quick, carian piercer is a great rollcatch, adula moonblade can oneshot from close range at can hide your next spell. Some spells like funding rain of stars is good tool for overly aggresive people. There are many creative and effective ways to play with sorcery

NOW im gonna say this as a preface i dont DUAL but i obviously get invaded quite a bit helping friends lol I like Fias fog spell that builds up death a lot of guys wont run thru it then i blast a moon thru it cuz its quite the obscuring cloud they never see the moon coming right at them xD Most people get one shot or close to with the spell its a kinda fun combo to use, the
lorretas mastery as a spell sucks but in PvP invasions as a range strike can be tricky to dodge for most with 3 arrows usally making it to a target.
Dragons breath attacks track targets and do heavy damage in quite a range although easy to counter make most people panic,
the sonic build is kinda silly but funny lol and blood flies are super heavy used quite decent.

Sorceries are good in PvP, but that doesn't really mean sorcery players are good in PvP. It's actually pretty challenging because you have to be able to cycle your spells quickly and accurately. FOr me at least, that's really challenging if I'm under pressure at all.

A tip put them in the order you wish to cast them. this often helps and the more you do this the better your muscle memory becomes cycling to them. Also while in a long animation for a spell you can swap to another spell then when the animation is done you can cast the swapped to spell.
So for me i often wanna cast fias death fog spell first so that is 1 and second i cast Moon that is 2 that way during the cast can swap to the Ice moon and spam it right after to get the fastest case i can out. Dex and casting speed buffs help this to some extent to speed up casting.
