I noticed this nerf to 85% weapon damage and I thought the thing that made it amazing was the CC.

 

Was I wrong?

You're not wrong.  The damage is just a bonus.

The damage was a plus but you want it really for the knock downs. When it hits and enemy it knocks them o the ground and then the are free to be killed without them hurting you

Firestorm -> Flashfire.
Firestorm -> Flashfire.
Firestorm -> Flashfire.

I have never had teammates hate me so much from lagging their game with so many concurrent firestorms.

Then it's as I remember.

 

I thought maybe someone discovered some crazy way to make it's damage sky rocket or something.

Knock down 3~4 red templar shadows at the same time with firestorm in Ferelden castle , it's a pretty funny way to get rid of those deadly enemies .

Horrors are also funny , they are thrown farther with the knock down , and firestorm keep throwing them here and there .

Oh man , I'm already missing the Red templars as enemies :/

When I take it I only use it in "broken arrow" situations.

In other words when we're overrun.

Firestorm is one of the best crowd control spells in the game for the knockdown. The damage is still really good, it's tons of hits on a huge area, the 15% nerf isn't a huge deal. And one of the best xp generators in the game. You're doing damage to everything. It may not kill everything, but touching everything makes sure your party is getting tons of xp. It's also doing a lot of hits, which several are crits, so you're getting free casts all the time, either to recast it and keep it up, or free casts on immolate/barrier/whatever. Also, if you have a HoK ring, Firestorm will persist after you go down, and then routinely revive you, as often it does kill something.

 

Couple it with Wall of Fire, and nothing will get past your choke point in FC.

Lol that movie was terrible. Although it makes sense using firestorm in that context as well.

"A JOHN TRAVOLTA MOVIE IS COMING?!"

No, not that. If anything I was referencing We Were Soldiers with Mad Mel in it.

Best scene in the movie.

It actually strikes me that the US military appears to use that term for nearly everything that goes missing or wrong.

FS is the best CC in the game, for that reason you don't need damage. 

 

You unleashed it and wait for your DDs do their job, i personally use that time to jump around on things.... Too bad there is not a Dance animation.

Also.. COMBOS!

Yeah...having to think a tiny bit & use timing....nonsense. Stupid ability.

W meteors & firewall I generally get about 25k XP in perilous. Helps everyone level up fast. Tons of assist XP.

But then again...maybe I'll drop firestorm because I have to move my eyeballs a bit.

If you have high attack, Crit chance and Crit damage you can use it for the damage - why not?

Otherwise, it is better as a pure CC.

Worse excuse ever i believe you play this game on routine all time right?

 

Because, if you tell me you look around the screen for archer, enemies setup, where your teammates are, where you set Fire Mine, the "EVERYTHING" you target, and not the flashfire icon, then you are.....strange.... 

 

Also you don't need to look to the Skill bar to know when FF is ready, a REAL Elementalist feels when is the time!

 

Also NO, FW is NOT better Crowd Control. Is just a wall.

Yeah. Lol. FW is not really crowd control. It sets things on fire sure...but they still attack. Firestorm drops enemies to the ground...controlling said crowd.

Again. Use both.

Is it really that hard to accept that some people dislike certain abilities? That doesn't make them bad teammates or that they aren't good players. Come on now.
