Is elemental shell worth getting? What applications could it be usfull for? Im leaning toward it not being very practical since it only lasts four seconds and costs roughly 8 mill in coins...since i can just get mages star on a genie and do about the same thing. I just wanted to hear what other people think or if anyone who has gotten it could inform me if they thought it was worth it. 20 apocalypse pages, 10 ink, 1 mill coin, and 1 mill spirit.

Elemental Shell Level 1
Mana: 200
Channel: Instant
Cooldown: 30 seconds
Weapon: Unarmed, Magic Instruments
Requisite Cultivation: Aware of Vacuity

When the Allied Force was fighting the wraiths, people found that Barbarians were relatively more vulnerable to spells than the others. The Wizards thus discovered a new method to aid their comrades. By manipulating the certain elemental arrays, the wizards managed to temporarily increase some of their allies element resistance. Target's Metal, Water, Fire, and Earth resistance increases by 1000% for 4 seconds. Also has a 10% chance to dispel all the status ailments on caster.

    Not sure really, me and a another mage friend talked about it and really the only thing we see a use for is if you are about to be hit by an ultimate you juts pop it up, or if you see your cata puller is going to be hit pop him with it, but we never really thought of any useful application of it.

    If you're about to be hit by an ulti, better to throw Soporific Whisper on the caster. Force of Will is good too. Or try a Genie skill.

    Basically, don't bother with this skill.

    Lol even if this was a free spell, I probably would reconsider leveling it. I can only think of it being used in PvE if you're about to die or something, or in PvP it will save you from 1 attack from a veno/mage/cleric if used correctly. Its just a lame "pk pot" that costs 8 mil to use b:bye

    its got a 30sec cooldown which its semi-spammable, which might be good in 1 vs 1 pvp against other wizzys but i wouldnt waste 7mil on it.
