elementalist, what magic has most benefits?

yeah, as the title says... what gives most benefit... personally i like the air element... but i wanna hear other people about it

lol, please help this noob?! :D

There is no BEST in guild wars imo. It all depends on what role you will be fulfilling. Air magic is high single target damage with some utility thrown in, whereas fire provides great area of effect. Each spec line has a completely different playstyle. So the question is what do you want to play!

hmmm... well, i guess i'll be going for air then...

I like water magic.....

but no1 ever playes water...:o

heh, i find water magic rather weak, compared to the other elements... i'm btw still not recuperated from that 260 fireball a fire elementalist used on me... while my own best hit is 126 with lightning orb >.

XD sure u didn't have frenzy on when that fire ball hit you?? :p maybe he had 12+1+3+2 fire magic (that makes 18) attribute+head+sup rune+glyph of elem power???

I like water becouse it is more like cursing some1 instead of dammage, it's funny to freeze a warrior on the spot walk away and do it again. I like hexing skills becouse every1 uses dammage already but in a team cursing can be much more usefull. so if you play a water ele concentrate a bit less on those 260 dmg spells and a bit more on those anoying hexing skills ( btw, mealstorm is great to send a tight packed group of foes running all over the map being interrupted)

There are plenty of water elementalists used in GVG. Mostly due to its combination of utility and damage.

well I only play very little gvg and much more arena so I guess that's why i'm not seeing them
