Are wind mains ok (they are more than ok)

big gas cloud funny

i saw that it technically had the highest damage back on WoM so i ran it on a dude named octavio shield and while it was fun, i don’t think you can reapply DoT over and over, so you’re only getting twice your impact damage on ONE attack for TWENTY WHOLE SECONDS and your enemy is probably regenerating a ton of that damage away anyway

anyway i sacrificed octavio in order to make my berserker

the acid offsets the healing (espically since I would have crystalized them)

Knockback is what makes Wind the best magic in the game by leagues in regards to PvP (on Mage). The variety of extremely low-effort and high-potential knockback skills, mainly Pulsar but also Surge and Javelin, can make it absolutely impossible to approach. Combine this with its ability to stun with Ice/Snow, its large size, its great speed, and it having a teleport dash that requires 0 agility, and you have the best current Mage magic in the game, hands down.

There is a reason Knockback is being nerfed this patch. Wind itself may also receive further nerfs if the current changes are insufficient.

ah I forgot about wind javelin ;-;
this is basically “hey every few seconds, nudge”
I wonder what each of these is like with max knockback gems

IT’S THE BEST?
jesus christ i guess i can’t judge a book by its cover

it is the best because you can basically play the hyper-agressive wind mage and push your enemy around
you thought surge gale was annoying
make that every attack

Selectorch just yesterday hosted the first iteration of the Arcane Odyssey Sea League PvP tourney, in which a Wind mage I know went 3-0 on all rounds that he was involved in, scoring first place.

While playing on school Wi-Fi, and on a laptop trackpad. I can share the link to the video if you’re interested in seeing how outright unfair Wind can be.

i’ve only met gale surge once and that was because someone wanted to test it out

you know what? lemme see that

high speed and size so you never miss, knockback making close range against it impossible and a stun synergy and a tp dodge

lemme also see this
because this sounds like the stuff I would pull (and would also be motivation to work on my wind mage again)

The user you’re looking for is Rapt_XL, apologies for not having the timestamps on hand. He’s the first round played, if you want to see his performance against a Berserker.

p sure raptor had a mouse lol, trackpad is exagerating

also wasnt his final against mimhere 3-1?

Can’t remember, I kinda tapped out around the end. Could’ve been.

the lightning conjurer mirror match was hilariously boring

my god that zerker got humiliated

Pretty good Berserker, too. Just no real way to approach that at all, especially with Snare being a backup safety net and that Berserker being held back by the current state of cone check.

a good wind mage is the king of distance. they can hit you to distance themselves
