Talk:Water Magic

Not sure if Armor of Frost should be removed from the initial series, for while it does not do cold damage it is related to ice and could be considered as not belonging there. I was surprised to find a dead link to Ward Aganist Harm. I made some mistakes in my edits, hence the multiple re-edits. -Maestro Acheron 03:19, 1 January 2006 (UTC)


 * That's because it's not spelt Ward Aganist Harm it's Ward Against Harm!!!!!--Xasxas256 03:30, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I did a rewrite of many sentences and removed a few. In general, there is no need to use I and You if you are trying to be informative. There is no place for I in the wiki to begin with and You is only for instructive texts like walkthroughs and guides.

The sentences that were removed were mostly for lack of relevance. A statement like "Water Magic lacks healing skills" is true but not very relevant. So does Fire, Air, Earth, Smiting Prayers, Hammer Mastery and Domination Magic. :) A sentence like "A Water Mage's worst enemy is a Domination Mesmer" and the following tip on how to defeat them is irrelevant, again because a Domination Mesmer is the enemy of all spell-casters and how to defeat them should be in their article, not water magic's article. --Karlos 03:56, 1 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I was wondering about the formality of the article. I'll keep to the third person, thanks! -Maestro Acheron 10:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Underpowered
Is it just me or does anyone else finds water magic underpowered? I mean, ardly any real damage and much snares, wich are useless in PvE. Hope it will get better in ch.4 -- Sigm@  (talk|contribs) 14:25, 22 January 2007 (CST)


 * I disagree. I have a water ele in PvE and he does great. He has 16 in water magic and skills like Ice Spear, Ice Spikes, Shard Storm, Deep Freeze, Freezing Gust, Shatterstone, and especially Vapor Blade are all great for damage. I much prefer water to the boring and over-rated fire magic. Jokesnsmokes 15:07, 4 March 2007 (CST)

Sucks !
I personaly think water magic and skills sucks ! really ! Water ele's have some useful skills, like maelstorm and......uhmm...nothing else ! Those huh use water ele's and find it fun, good for you, but compared to a fire,earth or air, they are no good. And thats why water ele's are rare, because all their skills are the same: Low dmg, slow movement (lol, sucks), few interrupts. So even if some ppl have come up with a shutdown water ele or something, like Icy shackles on a derv. But hey a fire ele can kill derv and much more. More usefull, can do a lot of AoE dmg, and air ele's can focus on 1 target. Earth is good for some tanks and AoE dmg, like Sandstorm, Earthquake. I dont have anything agaisnt ppl huh play as water ele's, but i think 90% of all ppl would prefer fire, earth or air. They are good for PvE and PvP. Water magics should just be more than slower a foes movement, ele's is most for spiking, and water ele's dont live up to that !
 * 1) This is not a forum. Go talk about this crap on GWG or something.
 * 2) Many HA and GvG teams like to bring Water Trident eles or mesmers. So your wrong, as well.--Nog64Talk [[Image:Yaaaay.JPG]] 11:40, 18 March 2007 (CDT)

Also take a moment to use somewhat correct spelling/grammer, right now it's laughable. You say, in your "expert" opinion, Water Magic is weak but your education speaks against you.
