It's gonna be mainly Water spells

1. Water Trident (E)
- This spell pissed off a lot of Warriors, Assassins and any others in PvP! Imagine you slow them down, and start abuse water trident for annoying dmg + knockdown. Most of them got piss off and start target me with 66% slower movement lol.... and I can Trident them to death before they approach me. Feels awesome, this also work in Pve ! And the animation looks good... so does the watery sound when you cast it!!

2. Maelstrom
- If Water Trident piss off any moving foes, this spell piss off any casters :P this spell is ESPECIALLY lovely after the update.... only 2 sec casting time now! U gotta love to interrupt any casters and amazing on how half of them never walk away! Beside the usefulness! The spell animation looks fabulous.... I love when you conjure the Ice Crystal then vanish and reappear on the sky fallen on the ground with an icy-windy sound.

3. Ice Spike
- I like Ice Spike more then Deep Freeze simply ONLY because Ice Spike has the "icy animation" spike on the victims, while Deep Freeze doesn't have that animation. If Deep Freeze has more fancy magic-animation, I'd go for Deep Freeze. (Gw should create Water version of Firestorm for deep freeze)

They could just attack another target. Or run back to their healer, if they aren't already. Probably the latter.

PvP: Super-small AoE and people can move around. I don't know in HA, but definitely doesn't work in GvG and that sort, not on people, anyways.
PvE: The ancient AoE update...

No, because Fire Storm is continual, while Deep Freeze delivers all damage at that one instant. So, there might be a "firestorm" animation, but it definitely won't last 5 seconds.

LightningHell,

This topic is asking us to write our favour spells, I don't know why you counter all my points here! Those are my 3 most favorite Ele spells.... the topic doesn't ask anyone to "DISAGREE or AGREE".

Beside its not like I made things up. Water Trident does very well in pvp, AB etc. *the healer part u mentioned, that can happen on any spells....=/* So does Maelstrom, somehow the animation on the ground is not as noticible... some ppl don't walk away.

And again, I'm staying with the topic, only try to explain why I like the above 3 ele spells the best.

Nah they can't just switch a target to escape a 66% slow with many knock downs too and I don't know what gave you the idea they could. As long as your team are smart understanders of kiting they will move before the slowed target reaches them.



Many different situations would alter the outcome of this combo for good or for worse just like any other skill combo or build. None can be perfect and yet some are better than others...hows about you not point out every impurity of every build as they all have one or more.
(Not meant to flame you or anger you please keep this in mind)

my favourites are very situational and depend on what element im using..


elemental attunement gets the top spot without challenge

then if im going with fire the other 2 would be rodgorts invocation and pheonix

if im going with earth its kinetic armour and obsidian flame

air would be gust and lightning hammer

havent really messed with water

Elemental Attunement - Great for a build which has lots of 25 energy spells which recharge fast like Rogs Invigoration.

Lightning Surge - I love air spiking. This skill alone makes it possible.

Blinding Flash - Saved my arse many times from that 1 rouge Warrior who chases me all day in AB.
