and needs 3/4 or lower cast time --Zealous 16:41, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * It'd be interesting if this skill could interrupt all skills instead of just signets (while keeping the 1 second cast time). You'd probably have to increase the energy and recharge though. EDIT/26March: added suggestion. Akirai Annuvil 22:16, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Cast time is the problem. Fix that, please. -- NUKLEAR  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] IIV  10:17, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The only problem that I can see with a 1/4 second cast on this is that people would spike with it. How about Vapor Blade + Icy Prism? = 210 damage spike.
 * lol 3 second spike. Lol vapor blade spike. Lol preprot. -- NUKLEAR  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] IIV  15:57, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * It wouldn't be 3 secs if this skill's cast time was decreased, but it's still not gonna become a super-nasty spike (though with Mirror of Ice as it is now, it could have the potential, but it's probably not powerful enough). --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:81.105.50.128 (talk).
 * Aftercast. Vapour is two secs, you wait for 0.75 secs, and cast Icy prism for 0.25 secs. 3 seconds. -- NUKLEAR  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] IIV  18:05, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I know it's 3 seconds, but one packet of damage comes one second after another. It's faster than Shadow Strike/Vampiric Gaze spike, and a lot of people have trouble with that.
 * But that cuts directly through prot and armor. Your's 's... pretty prottable. -- NUKLEAR  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] IIV  16:38, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

LEAVE ICY PRISM ALONE *SOB*
There is no problem with not being able to use this often because of it's recharge. The 2 seconds is to help with utility. Having this interupt any type of skill would be way too powerful, and isn't really something an Elementalist should be doing - they're not mesmers! Changing this to 5 energy makes it way to easy to spam. Just leave this skill alone, use a 40/40 set to try to cast it faster if your main concern is that it isn't casting fast enough. Or just use it on a Me/E. Bathory 06:19, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
