 * Don't bother, he thinks that he's such a good player, so let him delude himself with his own hubris. Any argument, no matter how logical, will absolutely no effect on self-righteous people who think they are right. When they find that they are losing an battle of wits and logic, they start churning out red herrings(such as his r12 and "official alpha tester with 6000 hours play clocked in") and argumentum ad hominem.220.255.7.136 12:20, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

By far much better, glyph of immo + steam is only really good when you are running full (or near full) spec water magic for its cheap long lasting blind, but you are using Mind Blast so the whole saving energy plan is out the window, that's why Bflash (being completely non conditional) is much more effective. Slippery Ground is a pretty meh skill, yes it is 5 energy ranged KD, but to get that KD you have to 1) have GoI up, 2) use Steam and then 3) use Slippery Ground. By that time blind may have been removed to prevent KD or there is a good chance your team would have already killed the enemy. Gale offers a quick ranged KD, sure it costs 10 energy + exhaustion, but if you get exhaustion locked on an ele then you are overusing gale, it's effect is strong and should be savoured for best uses (warrior chasing a monk with IAS, Gale means you could get a kill where you wouldn't normally).

tl;dr, its a bad bar, and if you are an AB pro then you are wasting a lot of your time because being good at ab, well, doesn't make you that good... Frosty  the Admin 12:56, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
