And that is how it always happens.

If one were to obtain a high resolution picture of the icon, you'd notice the extreme amount of detail in the butterfly. Very pretty.

Overall favorite:
[skill]Visions of Regret[/skill]

Ah, yes. Visions of Regret. I feel that it's a fun little representation of a clever Mesmer's dominance over Warriors. Now, the thing I like about the Elementalist icons is how they artistically portrayed both the lightning and the blue ice while keeping the red background. And let me tell you, no profession's signets beats the Paragon's signet icons. Mesmers come close, but of course, I am biased towards both of the professions.
