Editing Guide

Gush

Sage: Sage version increases slow effect to 45% and increases duration of slow by one second.
Basically, its effect goes by 5% which is about 0.25m/s if the target is unbuffed with speed movement raise and slow effect lasts 1 more second, it adds a little extra time for you to cast a Glacial Snare or Sandstorm on the target before it hits you.

Demon: Demon version gives an extra 600 damage.
Now, I'm a fan of damage, that's why I'm a Wizard, so any extra damage is welcome, even thought it's not amazing.

My opinions: Demon, because I use gush as a support, not as a status causer.


Glacial Embrace

Sage: Sage version always increases Water resistance to 150%.
Same as Pyroshell, but pretty good on Water mobs instead, pretty awesome for grinding Sushi.

Demon: Demon version always increases mana regeneration to 15 points per second.
This Demon version is awesome for grinding any kind of monsters, you can stay much longer without meditating and when you do meditate you recover a lot faster.

My Opinions: I have to say Demon, much better to save pots/time.

Hailstorm

Sage: Sage version grants an extra 3160.0 Water damage to frozen enemies.
No, this is not a 33% chance of critical hit. It's a 33% chance to deal a bit more damage on the target, not very usefull, since 33% isn't a good chance and you can't spam this skill.

Demon: Demon version increases chance to freeze to 50%.
This is actually good, because us Wizards need more Seal skills, so even a 50% Freeze with sucky damage isn't bad. You can use it to start on a Fire mob, then you'll have 4 secs for a Glacial Snare.

My Opinions: Demon, for sure, a freeze with 50% chance is always welcome.

Morning Dew

Sage: Sage version gives a 10% chance to fully heal the target.
10% chance is the same chance as you have to get 1m out of a Golden Box, the difference here is that Morning Dew costs nothing to cast (Except MP) and Fully heal a Target is VERY good.

Demon: Demon version also heals the target over time, recovering 200 HP three times at three second intervals.
This means it heals 600 HP over 9 Seconds, or 75 HP per second, I like it.

My opinions: Demon, 10% chance just doesn't seem right to go Sage.

Wellspring Quaff:

Sage: Sage version gives a 100% bonus to magic attack for 15 seconds.
If I wanted a 1st Spark, I'd use a 1st Spark and not WS, so no thank you.

Demon: Demon version gives a 20% channeling speed increase for 15 seconds.
Extra Channeling! Ding ding ding

My opinions: Demon because of Channeling.

Frostblade

Sage: Sage version increases effect duration to 30 minutes.
Instead of lasting 15 minutes as usual, it lasts double time, big deal, it's still just a blue hand for most anyway.

Demon: Demon version always increases bonus damage to 50%.
So it takes half your M. Atk and puts it into regular attacks. Not bad at all for a buff.

My opinions: I think my Physical attacking friends will like demon.

Glacial Snare

Sage: Sage version reduces enemy Water resistance by 20% for 15 seconds
Same as Sage DP, only worth the bother against Fire Mobs. Also, Glacial Snare takes exactly 15 seconds cooldown, so GS Sage only gives advantage to BID and Gush (And hailstorm if you use it)

Demon: Demon version has reduces channeling time to 2.1 seconds.
A regular GS takes 4.3 Seconds to fully cast, with this upgrade, it takes as long as a Sandstorm, pretty usefull I'd say.

My opinions: Demon gives extra Channeling and GS has a terrible Channeling time, so I vote Demon.

Black Ice Dragon

Sage: Sage version gives a 50% chance to increase magic critical hit rate by 30% for 10 seconds.
Wow o_o Tell me this is not good and you get slapped in the face.

Demon: Demon version gives a 20% chance to cast without using a Spark
Pretty much like any other Sage Ulti, Boring!

My opinions: Sage BID FTW!

Water Mastery

Sage: Sage version always increases water damage by 25%.
Same effect as any other mastery.

Demon: Demon version increases critical hit rate by 1%.
Same effect as any other Mastery.

If you're gonna talk about my level: First that's my old Wizard in the Avatar, second that's not my first character, not my second, not my third, not even my tenth.
