it’s bad
It also gives bleed status for 5% hp too btw. As long as you have a relatively high power stat (100+) you should be dealing bleed on every wood attack. The only reason I didn’t put it in S tier is bc it isn’t entirely busted yet
Everybody keeps saying wood is bad, but its got great stats and pretty good synergies. Its almost the exact same as earth/metal but with heat synergies, and i aint seeing people saying those magics are bad.
Give me one good reason that Wood is bad.
as SOON as we get a heat weapon/spirit it’ll be viable for every class; and we’re already getting a heat spirit weapon for release:
meaning wood works with Mage, Paladin, and Warlock.
Hell, it has the same bleed chance as Metal magic, but actually has good speed and synergies.
To put it in prespective:
Metal has no items that can easily trigger its synergies, and has to wait for its bleed to apply to give other abilities any benefits. Also metal is slow as hell and has Defense and resistance for Arcanium + an agility debuff. Its only good quality is that it wins every clash, and has the highest power.
Again, Metal only gets a 10% bonus from Crystal, Acid, Magma, and Sand. Overrated Magic tbh, Earth does it better:
Earth is similar, but can trigger bleed… once it deals a 3rd of someones health, or 33%. If you use an Ult its 16%, but thats unreliable. It has the exact same synergies as Metal, except that it works with Bleed; which makes Earth really good for Conj. Its got Defense and Attack Size arcaniums which is better than Metal. All for slightly less power than metal, but its both bigger and faster.
Then theres wood, which has slightly less power and size than earth, but gets some extra speed. It also gains Defense and Power which is always great. but unlike earth, it has a way easier chance of triggering bleed. but wood has the best and most synergies of the three:
Corroding, Melting, Charred, Singed, Melting, Burning, Scorched, and Sandy (ignoring Scalded, and Petrified because those aren’t possible rn), for 10% bonus damage + being able to trigger bleed to get further synergies.
seeing sand in D tier makes me
just more happy to realize how unbelievably foolish you all are 
it’s bad
ruthless cherry wood paladin ember staff 
Wood is good, it’s kinda like metal but faster.
wood is like wood, which makes it bad
Wood is actually pretty good
Wood’n’t you know, wood might be solid. It’s not all bark, y’know. Why don’t you all branch out some more and try it. It might leaf you speechless. If you don’t give it a chance for it’s potential to blossom, you might be disappointed. Stick with it a while. Who knows, it might grow on you.

I’m going to touch you
wood has less damage than sand
That’s bcs it’s a size magic that is kinda fast.
no idea why people portray sand as low tier when it has average speed with .975x impact
that is disgustingly powerful and sand is also quite large too
yeah sand is very fun to use. hits like a truck for no reason. glass/sand is actually pretty good.
ash and explosion has more size than wood and both are faster, and explosion deals a little less damage for 1.3 size and ash with burning deals more damage than wood
The sand government puts out propaganda against sand so it never gets nerfed (you didn’t hear it from me though)
Right but wood deals more damage than both of them, wood is kinda like a nerfed metal, slightly faster but with less damage
also we are talking about magics alone.
explosion being min-maxed is very good in its case
and ash isn’t min-maxed, but its not bad
wood on the other hand >:(
“Ash with a status synergy deals more damage than a single magic!”
Wood has a 0.95x damage multiplier, and gets 10% damage from most heat reactions. and when compared to Metal/Earth, its basically the same thing but with useful synergies:
Metal is ludicrously slow and quite small, then it has 0 useful synergies;
Earth is weaker but faster than metal, its also bigger, but still struggles with having synergies, and can hardly proc bleed solo (33% requirement);
Wood is faster and larger than metal, while being faster but slightly smaller and waeker than earth, but its synergies are better and its status is much easier to apply.
These three are basically the same magics, its just that wood has better synergies.
as for Wood VS Explosion, one of these magics has a status thats actually useful by itself, the other one is charred. Wood keeps the same bleed proc as metal, but it has Power on its Arcanium and better power than explosion, meaning you’ll land 5% of a persons HP quite easily.
Wood is a fine magic, its like B tier at worst.
