Your complaining about ice shards cast time when its the strongest spell in the game? Try being a druid, all of our skills have a long cast time and its horrible trying to use them in combat when the enemy interrupts you 3 times in a row till you might as well not even use the spell and finish it with melee. Your lucky to have skills that cast quickly at all. Not to mention how you have ice shards at all that can quickly get rid of a enemy.
I agree with both of these.I play a Mage is agree with reducing cast time however it is so powerful the recharge should be longer it should be exactly that a one hit wonder mages r powerful hitters and they should be hand to hand they r supposed to lose in a fight high mana low hitpoints when going up against bosses etc they should not be able to tank them that's the job of a warrior I've set my Mage up to be a big hitter u see a lot if people tanking there mages and still been able to cast spells when thus gets addressed maybe by doubling mana cost on spells and giving double mana points per point spent on focus it might make all thise tank mages out there change to spell casters instead if tanks and maybe even reduce the number of hit points given to a Mage per point spent on vit.
I think by implementing a bonus stat and negative stat for each class would make people play that type of char the way it was ment to be
I think people want to be able to use Lure of Ice more with Ice Shards.
