This is the second time a wizard has told me my frost blade is only useful for BM and Barb.

Well, this is either the second wizard or it's the same person and I just don't remember the other name. Cuz it's been so long

Please let me know what is up with frostblade. Am I just wasting MP by using it on myself?

    It adds phys attack, so its useless for us.
    It just gives a nice glowing hand.

    Also go ahead and buff the cleric and the archer of course! Archer love your frostblade and the clerics i have talked to says it increases the damage of their plumeshot. Never looked to see if it increases the phys dmg on a blade tempest.

    =O
    I use the same combo for chi making.
    Although I don't use macros at all so it's all manual.

    Er...
    Frostblade only adds damage to normal (physical) weapon damage. Meaning it only helps barbs, bms, and archers. (venos as well if they like using fox form)
    Adding physical weapon damage doesn't help a cleric or wizard. All their attacks are based on their weapon's magic damage.

    yup i think Andross is right.

    and just so you guys know, frostblade by itself is faster chi than frostblade/morning dew. even with the cooldown. but i think morning dew has a better chi:mana ratio or w/e.

    i just left frostblade at lvl 1 for now as a chi builder. maybe until master li's technique hahaha.

    frostblade only help melee attacks (Archer, barb,BM and veno in fox form).

    I used it for a while to build chi.
    Now I'm always full chi. If I could sell chi I would be very very rich...b:chuckle. I LOVE chi in TW or when grinding. Sage FTW b:cute

    also um frostblade cost more mana. with mountain dew the mana it costs you regain while casting (useful when your in a FB/BH and you just casted wellspring quaff).
