I went on my Giant one day and got bored and trained Am and Wc... and got addicted to it.
Right now i have r5 wc and rA am. I have rE Frozen Blast to train Am and rD Flame burst. I love both of them but which one is more useful? Also can they be used behind r5> barriers? I dont have Barriers ranked high yet but, I just need to know :<

It all depends. Frozen blast just freezes them, which can be useful against some monsters if you can kill them fast enough and have a god freezing time.
Flame Burst, on the otherhand, is a pretty good party skill. It's also WAYYY less AP costly then Frozen Blast.
I'd wait until later to rank Frozen Blast, imo. At beginner levels it's only real use is for making Frozen Blast crystals.

Flame Burst is a great damaging skill with long stuntimes, but it doesn't go through barriers, and sucks unless you have about 3 charges put into the Cylinder(unless you have enchants) in terms of normal damage. You're going to need to achieve 30% Critical for it, since most of it's damage comes from the criticals you will score with Flamer, and it also ignores enemy protection when calculating criticals.
Easy way to train it? ZOMBIES. :D

I would say Flame first then Frozen Blast.

I went for Frozen Blast since I like support Alchemy, but definitely go for Flame Burst, especially if you're venturing into Alchemy.

If you want to main alchemy, go flame burst( I heard it isnt very good without enchants)
If you just want a support skill(party), go frozen blast.
Of course, someday, you'll be maxing both :P.

Most likely Flame Burst, unless you want an alternating skill to use Frozen Blast with a combo of an alternate weapon like Smashing or Magnuming, or stalling the enemy to give you time to summon a golem, set barrier spikes, charge up alchemy skills, y'know.
