This skill can be bought at Beetletun.

i haven't tested this, but sounds like common sense: do NOT use this skill if someone has a Greater Conflagration spirit lying around. You will essentially only gain -24 armor to Fire AND physical damage.

jstu stack armor is mist on you, you'll 33% faster and have soe more armor =D

Does this still have the -24 to armor against fire attacks? I just picked up the skill at Beetletun and it doesn't say that in the description.

nope. it was buffed recently

With a 20% longer weapon mod, this is only down for like 2 Secs at 16 Water. Cheap, fast cast, lasts awhile without re-applying.

Problem is Elementalists already have great +armor enchantments (that give +armor vs everything, not just physical mind you), the good points of this one just don't warrent using it over these other options.

Example: Armor of Mist is longer cast, costs alittle more, and lasts alittle shorter in relation to its recharge, but gives more armor (thats vs everything, not just physical) and a long run boost on top of that. Armor of Earth is in a different magic, but its comparable for like PvE +armor. Armor of Earth lasts twice its recharge at any attribute, gives alot more armor than this at top attributes (armor that is again vs anything), and the slowing effect is almost not noticable at top attributes (or doesnt matter before you are standing still). Earth also has Stoneflesh Aura, which puts all of these enchantments to shame anyway
