Hello there my fellow spell caster that like to shoot fire.. Or ice.. From there hands.. So I have a question for all of you.. Which do you prefer? I can't decide which I want..
Ice- whose doesn't like shooting people with ice?
Powerful
Use lots of Energy
Slow(ish) recast time
Fire- you get to burn the skin off of people
Decent damage
Not as much energy
Fast recast
Dps
So my fellow spellbinder.. Which do you prefer? And why?
Re: Fire/Ice.. What's your OPINION?
#2I use fire and a little ice. max firebolt, max firestorm, max fire attune, fire lure at 14-35, and max ice shards. But i am considering going to ice when i get to 160.

#3I used to be ice.. Couldn't support energy tho so I switched to fire.. I'm soon to have 115+ energy regen so I'm thinking about switching.. But not quite sure.. I mean.. Fire is dps so iceshards might hit 1200 damage.. But fire bolt could hit 2 800's and equal 1600 damage before ice hits again.. So I don't know.. (I'm currently level 81)

#4Before the nerf, the damage of ice made the slow cooldown and energy consumption worth it. Post nerf, not so much. As a result, I'm fire with a tad of ice shards, just for those extra moments where you need a quick uninterruptible cast.

#5fire, if ice will have higher dmg, a bit faster cooldown (mostly for ice blast) and less energy cost i will like it more, energy cost is just cuz i wouldnt want to waste elix or pots at lower lvls, dont mind it at higher lvls

#6Well, I'd say fire, but I could also say ice due to this guy named Furyion...
Fire-you can last 1 evade, and its about a 3 second cooldown. Energy cost is bearable.
Ice-you only live once. you can do about 2 fire bolts in 1 shard. energy cost is death.

Booty is the most important thing.

#9What does that prove?
Fire bolt will quickly catch up and easily do way more damage after a short amount of time.
Plus with all the constant evasions it makes ice suck even more.
Yes i know your way better off with ice in a circumstance with a creature that have high fire resist.
But everyone knows fire is overall better and will come to more use to you in the game and is more effective on the majority of the enemies you fight.
