So basically for me, I'm a wise Mage and if I get either of them to r1 I'll be able to master mage. I'll be ranking both eventually but I just wanted people's opinion on blaze and hailstorm.

Both of them are only good in specialized scenarios, such as lords and MA. Blaze however, is far superior to either of these. Unlike hailstorm which has long charge times and doesn't hit super high, Blaze is fast enough for you to hit stupid high numbers and destroy an entire spawn of enemies. Anything that Hailstorm can do, Blaze can do better, especially when you consider the party play element of it.

For solo play hailstorm might be more useful if you don't do IS>Blaze
For party play blaze hands down with a puppeteer.
Honestly for solo play I feel that CC4 firebolt replaces hailstorm for overall damage and 1v1 target.

I would say the opposite: for solo, blaze would be better since you can use IS-Blaze combo on every mobs.
Hailstorm though, you can't really maximize its power unless you have a puppeteer friend who can crisis.

I guess I'll do blaze first since I have a savage wand to work with atm, I suppose I'll train the staff magics later.

Honestly from my experience Hailstorm is just for fun at the moment :bath:
