Acquisition

 * Maguuma Stade: Trainer, Avena

Usage

 * Use Glyph Of Energy first to nullity exhaustion and make it cost 20 energy less.
 * Although it has high Energy costs, high Activation time, and causes Exhaustion, this spell is possibly the Elementalist's strongest weapons against hostile spellcasters, interrupting them whenever Maelstrom deals damage to them. It is more useful in PvE play, because human players tend to simplay run away from Area of Effect-skills.
 * use glyph of sacrifice fist and cast this on the Unholy Elementalist -> he wont get his Ward Against Elements up, waste al lhis energy in triing this 5 times and the rest of the unholys are easy to beat with any kind of elemental damage.
 * The ability of interrupting spell casting is not linked to your Water Magic skill. Its low Relative increase of its damage alueÂ´makes this skill good with low water magic (~7 or less) anyways.
 * This skill's linked attribute can be temporarily increased by +2 by using Glyph of Elemental Power, but its not worth it.
