  That's more than enough right there.
  
  Nobody comes here to be put down by yet another random internet tough guy.

  
  
  I'm not here to put you down. I'm here stating facts for people who are trying to pick one or the other.
  
  Also my Thunder rank doesn't matter since you haven't answered any of my questions about Blaze knockback bonus. That makes the validity of your statements drop considerably, since we can't even tell if you know how the skill works or not.

  1. Speak for yourself. I'd gladly show Zy or anyone else on Alexina who knew how to treat ppl with a bit more respect, even in lieu of differences. You've done more than just "stating the facts", sorry, read above.
  
  2. The reason why I haven't answered your question are:
  
  A) You haven't even ranked Thunder past rank F, therefore getting into a "practical application of the skill compare/contrast" discussion with you about it (especially since you've already made up your mind that Thunder sucks) is probably not gonna be productive. Maybe you can figure it out yourself with lab and theory, not just theory.
  
  B) I was responding to the OP about Blaze, Thunder or Fireball, not trying to compare IS vs. Thunder (make a new thread if u want that so bad).
  
  C) You can't seem to ask it without some kind of low-level condescending tone.
  
  I frequent these forums for the nice people and articles. If you want internet banter from me, you're not getting any more. It brings the mood down. No fun man.

  If you find my posts offensive in any way, then I assure you it's not intended. It's not like I said, "HEY, THUNDER FAILS AND YOU SUCK." I merely stated that Ice Spear is more efficient and practical, and backed it with the mechanics and numbers. And I also believe that theory is indeed enough proof for something, unless practice can disprove it directly.
  
  Saying my Rank F Thunder is too low to get into this discussion is just as condescending as me saying you don't know how blaze works. As I said before, I already chipped in my 2cents on the OP, and there's nothing wrong with discussing this since it's directly related to the order/importance of the above questioned skills. Just like asking about Dex/Life skills when somebody asks a question about weapons and upgrade - although not directly presented in the question, it's relevant to the answer.
