Talk:Icy Prism

Is it just me, or is this skill totally PvP exclusive? I see no real use for it outside of PvP. Chao 15:33, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Nobody uses it in PvP, either.Pika Fan 15:36, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Lol, I suppose that's true as well. I've used it with Mirror of Ice on occasion but the energy cost is a bit too much for spamming. Chao 17:28, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

This is not a hex and therefore gains nothing from Mirror of Ice. -- AudreyChandler 22:16, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

One second is too long to sue as an interrupt, and it costs too much to be worth its low damage output...95.144.126.167

Used with Rust, one second is fine. Also, with a 2s recharge it probably out performs Shatterstone over time... third of the damage but quarter the recharge... gonna be close. Cirian 16:36, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Uses

Roaring Ethers, and a few of the Dwarves in Dungeons have rez signets.. this can be useful in those situations, when you don't have a frozen soil ranger, or yur team is moving fast.

I'd rather take Rust and a mesmer with interrupt(s) that also work on signets, like Cry of Frustration or Complicate or Tease or even Signet of Disruption, tbh. Or, hey, Panic. But actually, if I knew I was facing Roaring Ethers, I'd specifically bring Complicate for the sigs, no question. The most annoying thing with them is the res chains - kill one, and someone still has a res. Complicate would fix that, not this. This skill, on the other hand, I cannot imagine ever using. It'd make very thorough work of anyone who used a lot of signets, no question. However, I don't of know any PvE monsters like that, nor many PvP players. It's designed to shut down something that doesn't exist. --76.166.187.131 09:47, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Complicate

It and Icy are no longer related; I'm removing it from the page.--Ph03n1x 04:05, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
