Elementalist (click to hide)
Those that claim dominion over the Earth, the Heavens, the Water and the Flames, Elementalists are the masters of destruction. Elementalists are capable not only of dealing massive damage to a single target, but they can also spread their damage out to several foes, making them not only deadly, but versatile as well.


Air Magic (click to hide)
The domain of Air focuses most heavily on powerful single target attacks. Lightning also conveys the added bonus of a percentage of armor penetration factored into its damage, making it more effective against heavily armored foes - particularly Warriors, which this line is most suited for dealing with. This is especially true when one considers how easily one can blind their foes with Air magic - a condition that is devastating to classes that rely on melee attacks to deal their damage.

Earth Magic (click to hide)
The domain of Earth deals primarily with strengthening the defenses of the Elementalist. These defenses may be spells that only target the Elementalist casting them, or they may be Wards - an Area of Effect spell that is beneficial to all of your allies. In the middle of a heated fight, having the right Ward on your side can quickly turn the tides of battle in your favor. Earth magic also contains a few odds and ends for offensive magics, including projectiles and AoE spells, though not enough in and of themselves to make an offensive Earth Elementalist as viable as an Air or Fire would be. As such, Earth is recommended to be used as a 'support' attribute.

Energy Storage (click to hide)
An important attribute for all Elementalists, and often the reason why many people choose to make an Elementalist Primary (and secondary class the other profession they wanted to play.) Every point invested into Energy Storage increases the maximum amount of Energy the character has. Since all casters, especially Elementalists who often have very costly spells, rely so heavily on Energy, it is worth it to put as many points as can be spared into this attribute. Energy Storage also contains the Elementalist's self healing spell, so not only will you be able to cast more, you'll be able to keep yourself alive longer while doing so.

Fire Magic (click to hide)
The domain of Fire is where most of the Elementalist's AoE offense resides. Fire magic is capable of striking multiple foes around your target, it can be used to damage anyone who enters a targetted area, or it can be used for single target strikes. Most offensive Elementalists are of the Fire element because of the good damage and diversity that the skills represent. They can also easily set foes on fire - a condition which is useful, since it ignores any type of armor or resistance in dealing its damage. While Fire contains some of the most powerful skills in game, these skills are often accompanied by a hefy Energy cost, so good energy management is a must.
