I can only fusion bolt and blaze with a hermit staff or can you use them with say a trinity staff?

Yes. but as usual, you still can't use int.magic with it unless you charge it.

I'm pretty sure the Hermit staff doesn't need to be charged to cast int magic.

He's referring to the Trinity Staff.

Ahhhh, my bad.
So is this when people say wands are useless? :c (then again, that shield mastery might make it worth it, not to mention the op spell book)

But I haven't seen every spell yet...

I-it's half decent?
Seems the non-compounding thing was a glitch after all, otherwise Fusion and Hail wouldn't be swinging that high.
Still, the big question remains unanswered - is magic competitive with other skillsets now? Keep in mind that Climatic can crit for 20k sans reforges with minimal load time, and cooldowns are far less debilitating than charge times, and HSs single target DPS is blown out of the water by reforge range, melee and fighter (and those damage numbers are with reforges).

Based off the pictures I've seen (which I believe are in the other thread), I would say yes, it is.
