Light imbue vs Fire imbue

Post by XxpeddyxX »

I'm in a bit of doubt, say.. fire imbue is the strongest.. ok lets pretend I just used ghost spear with fire imbue and hit 3 mobs around me.. Now lets pretend I used ghost spear with light imbue and hit 3 mobs around me, wouldn't the light imbue do more damage area wise? since it has that transfer-damage thing?

My question is.. using an area skill with light imbue would be more effective than using it with fire imbue? o_o

Don't know, maybe so. But fact still remains that fire does more damage, which will definitely be noticeble in later levels. It's best to go for fire. But if you like the aoe, go lightning.

I have Ice and fire imbues at 3rd book both.
And was thinking to delevel ice and add lighting instead.
AOE is nice when grinding.
I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chime.
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time.
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows pole,
The sands of time for me are running low.

Can it be that there's some sort of error.
Hard to stop the surmounting terror.
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream.

I don't think so. I have light and fire imbue and kept switching between them when mobbed. The dmg of light is lower provided that they are not eletrically shocked.

....lite imbue can be scary sometimes..for example doin lite imbue wit fire nukes can attrack alot of mobs to u...specially on isy......while the fire nuke usually focus on 1 / few wit mor dmg....


....fire imbue is stronger in general BUT when the lite imbue shocks/lowers parry it should be the same dmg as fire.


....lite imbue + fire nuke 3rd book can sometimes shock / burn mobs same time and tats kinda cool i think.

....i use lite imbue as a full int spear and i like it :).
