I think it is sometime irritating that charged gale has to throw my mage on a long distance.
So I tryed GAle without speed update.
With area effect it is awersome skill to farm easy mobs. The best! Try it!
I didnt tryed yet, but i think it can be pritty good for elite maps because of armor bonus and probable 2sec stun.
note: if I coud turn off this gale leaps, but keep just speed bonus, this would be the best skill in the game :D
Gale is a tricky skill. If you don't wanna rush forward on a charged attack just face a wall then release the skill.
Yes, this is what i use to do. But then he stacks in this wall for a second. Without this update its so incredibly smooth, not a milisecond delay, beautiful.Quote:

if u stun them first with fireball then charge ur gale they wont scatter i think :P
never use FB and Gale together ...
If u prefer not to scatter the mobs, then u can obviously root via clock and gale out...
... I think gale is more useful when there are no Dash effects on the Skill, i just like the Speed bonus .. Anyways is there an Update to Remove that Gale dashes? ....
Yeah gale without dash upgrade is pretty good.
but gale dashes op in vs.....
vs with which class?
against warrior is good, against rogue not really I think
Better for war, okay with rogue
Gale actually came without the dash upgrade. Before ctf flagging is most tedious for the sorcerer class since they didn't have a dash skill unlike the rogue (pierce) and warrior (skyward smash). Check the ctf flag capture lb and you'll see the difference up to now. Removing it would be going backwards.

The fact that gale scatters mobs is not a + for it. The only time this could possibly be useful is when you're soloing. There's nothing worse than being in a party, getting all the mobs trapped, veiled and taunted, only to have the mage scatter them and follow up by fireballing them to keep them stunned in their scattered places. Scattered mobs take 10 times longer to kill than grouped ones.
Please use this skill with consideration when in a team.
I actually prefer gale without the aoe upgrade. It's much more controllable when I can fire just a blast of wind and knock enemies where I want them to go.
And fireball and gale can be used together. Actually gale, fire, ice and clock is the best crowd control Mage set there is. Most mobs won't have a chance to move.
I use now gale(without speed update) in elite maps.
I use scatter effect in my favor:
- frozen mobs will scatter but stunned wont(and those rooted by elon gun proc);
- few mobs outside the clock can be pushed into clock
- push mobs against the wall and clock them there
- distance from you to the mob dictates power of the scatter effect
More advantages:
+50% armor really helps on elite maps for big pulls (no need for arcane shield)
+ sometimes just quick non charged atack from gale make a good addition of damage to a pack of mobs
I love it and I keep it.
The only minus point of gale gorce is "backward dash" at PVE especially at time run lol
But once u've mastered it, you will realize that gale force is the best skill :p

I use gale without area upgrade but have speed upgrade
What sucks is gale will knock back or push back enemies even if they are rooted from clock or stunned by fireball or frozem by ice
that is not true, read earlier posts.Quote:

One thing I did notice is that gale (charge or not) interrupts the Tindrin Shaman stomp. Which is nice because I get wiped by that even if I'm out of its red zone.

Since the new update on lifegiver, what should be a good build for a pve mage? And also if some pro mage would post a ss of his gale force skill build or at least share which of the 4 upgrades should a mage use and not use with decent logic it would be highly appreciated along with any link to mage skill build guides, thanks in advance
