Thread: 5.0 RDM AOE ROTATION...NOT A FAN OF THE IMPACT CAST TIME, WOULD'VE DONE DIFFERENTLY

I'll have to actually play it to be sure of how it feels, my main issue right now is in the spells themselves:
Right now we have Verfire and Verstone for our short-cast elemental spells and Verthunder and Veraero for long-cast single target. Now Verthunder (II) and Veraero (II, I guess) are our short-cast AoEs...so where the heck and Verblizzard and Verwater?? RDM still has a large hole where those elements are concerned.

As an aside, I wanted RDM AoE to be more interesting than Scatter spam, specifically using a similar Scatter -> VerAoE mechanic... shows the devs DO listen lol

I love the SCATTER-SCATTER spam...lol...Scatter->VerThunder/Aero would have worked too.
I also agree with you about the lack of the other elements
VerBlizzard & VerWater could have been the AOEs.

Oh yes I like this! Let us have all the elements! That'd be cool.

Maybe alot of you dont realize that blizzard and water are there in the form of Fleche/Contre Sixte for ice and Vercure for water since all healing is water element. Having those elements as attacks would be nice,but they are represented.

I kind of disagree. No disrespect. I never considered Fleche/ Contre Sixte or VerCure as representation of Ice & Water.
