Question about elementalist skills

I’d like to hear some opinion about some skill:


Is this skill worth in pvp or it’s just useless because of long CD?

Some people say it’s good but others say it’s rarely hit even with big boss. So should I just leave this skill alone and max Electrocute + Hail to lv15?

Any comment is welcome :grinning:

i have the same thought about prominence…

Both prominence and hail have chance to not hit stuff.
But prominence have more chance to hit nothing than hail even with attribute to make it move in smaller range because of random moving it did (usually near your character in random direction). Still pretty useful if you bring a lot of mob to small space and not move around imo.

Of course all skill have chance to miss lol. You do know where Hail will land so you can run around to lure creeps come there. But for Prominence it may miss when creeps come near you :neutral_face:

I was also thinking about stone curse and I think I won’t go for that
I rather nuke than petrify :slight_smile:

Lv10 have duration 23s lol so you are sure die if petrified :stuck_out_tongue:

SC is amazing if you can pull it off, which is the hard part since it takes 2 seconds to cast.

As others said, it’s random and unreliable but the damage is really great. I personally prefer the Hail+Electrocute combo because of the freeze and bonus damage against frozen enemies though.

I was watching a video of the magic skills from the various classes in game and i though exactly this about Prominence. Even if it has nice damage numbers its always hard to ignore the random factor.

Can you tell me where to see the cast time of skill? It doesn’t show on the skill simulator

Prominence is trash because the damage is low, it’s duration doesn’t scale like hail and it rarely hits anything. There are far better moves.

Stone curse is only worth using in pvp as you will deal about 1/10 of your regular damage to a cursed enemy - basically put your tiles as they get out of the curse to setup all your damage. 2 second cast time isn’t really a big deal.

eh petrified enemy receive only 10% of normal damage? Where can i find it?

Ah didn’t know about the 1/10 damage. Though I reckon it’s still amazing in PvP for incapacitating important targets while you kill all the other party members.

Estimated the reduction from quick ingame testing - I still have my ele on the kr server. But yes the reduction is very high.

@neil_bratanata This is pretty much the use of it.

kk maybe i’ll drop that stone curse and try Freezing Sphere and Frost Cloud then

Frost cloud is without a doubt elementalists strongest skill.

@Midnightmare Could you elaborate a little more on why is this so? Also, is there any cast time for Frost cloud?

It’s like placing down a better Zaibas that does more damage, has no hit limit, is bigger and has a shorter cooldown. The damage is extremely high for a skill that has zero cast time.

The only downside is that it cannot hit flying mobs; but that doesn’t really matter.

Thanks. I can sort of visualise it now. Cheers
