fire glaive. ice glaive is bad because of the following reasons:
1) alot of people are ice immune
2) ice imbue is the weakest damaging imbue of all
3) glaives have rare, powerful hits, rather then quick small hits. Freeze probability therefore decreases.

No other posts are neccessary. He's summed it up in one.

[My post isn't even neccessary ;).]

The best thing... Is both!

That guy uses soul spear attacks and ghost spear attacks normally, fire imbue, but when he's in trouble, he switches to chains and ice imbue.
This is the ultimate strength character (Though it would be better if he was blade).

Whatever you do, DON'T be lightning!

If you don't do the dual imbue, I advise fire, easier on sp and stronger.

if people are ice immune, the imbue is worthless. it just lowers your damage compared to the fire imbue. The blader was not ice immune, so that has to be considered too. Using ice there was just stupid.
Observe that chain spear nachal hits did not hit over 1k damage. The same for shura.

Use fire imbue only.
