Hi all

Is Firestorm or Iceblast better? I've seen the patch notes on OTM website saying that they nerfed iceblast by like 45%... But my friends say iceblast is still better. I've tested them both OU and thy have abt same cast time. But which does more dmg?

Please help. Ty

I would say firestorm, b/c compared with blast it seemed to consume less energy.

What Massadu said, firestorm is quite superior since the nerf to ice blast.

Ice blast dmg was better before the nerf, but Firestorm always had the better cool down and energy cost

Ya for some odd reason OTM decided to switch the best build from all ice to all fire overnight in the nerf patch ... bizzare and uncalled for.

Neither way worked, they should actually BALANCE those two elements.
