Water is also more likely to quench fire than wind, as I already said.

    Changing it to fire <-> wind is just changing it for the sake of changing. While every game strives for originality, there is good and bad originality. Ver 1.0 was bad originality and the wheels are part of it.

    As for water <-> lightning, they just coupled fire <-> ice and wind <-> earth, so the only ones left were water and lightning. I never stated water <-> lightning makes more sense than wind -> fire, I only said the other systems made more sense as a whole. One absurdity is better than... uh... about 6?
    Who says this winds just blows air how do you know this wind isnt sucking the air from the fire. You can make up a lot of thing, but back to lux point its a fantasy game and they made it this way cause they wanted to....

    Wind is defined as: "The perceptible natural movement of the air, esp. in the form of a current of air blowing from a particular direction."

    If it sucked air, it'd be noted somewhere that it was a Vacuum sort of spell, since that is a pretty big difference. (And it would be pretty awesome.)

    On a side note, I think the spell "Choke" was a "vacuum" spell.

    So I'm not arguing that fire being put out by wind is "OMG IMPOSSIBRU," but doesn't water putting out fire make more sense?

    Don't need to make sense you just don't like it cause it's in your comfort zone, you guys really need to stop trying to apply real life to games it will get you no where.
