    1) Ellantria is amazing & confirmed my choice to go sage.
    2) Typhse's signature is probably one of the most epic on forums.

    Im a demon psy and I love the red spark. But I would have to say going sage is more of a solid choice for a psychic. I think the damage boost from the sage masteries is more beneficial than the measly crit chance from the demon side.

    The only reason I picked demon was supposedly the 100% freeze chance of glacial shards but it turned out to be only 75% in the end.

    Now as for demon aqua cannon, it's just an ok skill, both demon and psy gets the same damage when the skill comes off, and DoT dmge for 6 seconds almost means nothing in pvp or tw. If the DoT chance gets off on a class with high pdef, expect to see 200 dmge every second =\

    Another skill I was excited about is demon Tide Spirit which gives 15 seconds of an added 20% crit chance. It's a gamble skill much like anni packs because I expect to get a crit at least at the cost of 2 sparks but oftentimes I get none, so I wouldve been better off just 3 sparking instead (20% crit vs 700% dmge for 15 seconds). The only time I use Tide Spirit in TW is when I have to kill a character with high hp before his charm ticks again, and for this kind of situation I think the extra 3 seconds of quick channeling from the sage version would be more useful.

    All in all, I think both sage and demon psy are similarly effective when it comes to damage dealing since both versions of attack skills have the same set damage, just different effects. The sage psy gets the edge with their masteries and an extra +3 from black vodoo though. b:victory

    Sage might be good for a few reason...im not at that level yet but im pretty sure ill be sage cause it makes most of your barriers last longer and have better chances...however it also negates the mana cost of damage return for soul of vengeance. Now this effect may be a great help to your tank in a party...they can use it and it wont cost them any mana.
    was just a quick thought.

    Sage all the way because of the extra surviavbility and different tactical uses of the skills.
