lolwut @ above. I favor this spell waaay over Deep Freeze while using Mirror of Ice. Better recharge and even if the snare is a few seconds less, it's still better damage and less recharge. Chao 15:38, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Mirror of Ice is a bad skill, Deep Freeze has ~3 times as large an AoE, the recharge difference doesn't really matter that much in PvP, you can use Deep Freeze even without any Water Magic, etc etc... Vili User talk:Vili 15:44, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
MoI is good on spikes. ---Chaos- 15:48, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Mirror of Ice isn't good with anything until it's powercreeped to affect AoE hexes, thanks. Vili User talk:Vili 15:49, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Stubborn more, but I agree. But that's not really powercreep =/ ---Chaos- 15:51, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

I really kind of hope Vili was trolling. Misery 16:36, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Explain to me, then, how Mirror of Ice isn't the Mind Burn of Water Magic. Or call me inexperienced. Your choice whether to be helpful or not. Vili User talk:Vili 19:23, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
You can't just assume I'm talking about PvP. And anyway, recharge does matter in PvP. The extended AoE doesn't make much of a difference, and the higher damage + lower cost + lower recharge = better utility. Then again, maybe I'm just inexperienced. Chao 18:14, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
You're using Mirror of Ice in PvE because...........why?
Other than that, I lost the will to argue constructively when you decided to dismiss me for not being R9. Vili User talk:Vili 18:55, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

I hope the conversation on mIRC was good enough, if not I'm willing to continue. Misery 19:32, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
lolwut? When I ~*dismissed you for not being r9?*~ 0sry, I don't recall ever mentioning rank. I give less than one collective rat's ass about rank. I was just saying that in PvP, you usually want your skills recharged asap. My original comment was just stating that ice spikes has better synergy with MoI than deep freeze does. Also, I didn't say that Deep Freeze was better than Ice Spikes in general; I said it was with Mirror. And if you're so dying to know, I use Mirror of Ice in PvE with a skill capping build.

You cap skills? Wow, you're obviously inexperienced.67.182.24.195 20:19, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Icon[edit]

Am I the only person who sees a hand in this? Using the finger. (84.197.189.101 17:45, 21 March 2009 (UTC))

I think it's a hand shooting Ice Spikes, crazy huh? ~ Chao 14:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Hand like if you held your right hand pointing up in front of your face with the thumb toward you, fingers in a fan, scrunched like you're trying to pull on the bottom of a cup and compress your wrist at the same time. The top third of the image is one large ice crystal and several smaller ones. --Star Weaver 19:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
If you squint and tilt your head a little the open hand shooting spikes could look like a closed hand with the lage spike as the middle finger... but thats a streach with a corrupt mind at work MrPaladin talk 19:48, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
