Firewall - Searing Wards aspect

Sorcerer
1

Searing Wards (Offensive Aspect): After spending 200-100 Mana your next Firewall is free to cast and will destroy incoming Small Missiles.

What an absolute JOKE. Free firewall is nice every 100 (or 67 on amulet) mana, but the amount of projectiles ACTUALLY blocked by this aspect is an absolute insult. When they say SMALL MISSILES, they mean it. Arrows and quillrat spines, THAT’S BASICALLY IT. No blocking corpse bows, revenant bolts, or electrified orbs. Additionally, if a mob is INSIDE your firewall, they can fire through the bounds of the wall. This basically blocks nothing of consequence, so unless you’re looking for a damage aspect, which this would be okay on boots as a utility aspect, move along. OH BY THE WAY: IT’S A DEFENSIVE ASPECT, NOT OFFENSIVE. Which also means everyone else got an offensive aspect, and we got jack diddly. :upside_down_face: So glad I find Sorcerer the most fun to play ha ha ha :neutral_face:

I’m not even sure where you are supposed to put firewall on your very limited skill bar. I’m already using 4 defensive skills, and with the CDR I suppose I need to used Deep Freeze Supreme as well which allows me 1 offensive skill.

It technically works from the enchantment slot, but that’s a pretty huge price to pay for a sometimes sometimes effects.
