Fire for single target, lightning for AoE?

How does that make any sense at all? Shouldn't fire damage be the AoE type damage, you know with the exploding and all, having a fireball that does AoE on heavy attacks would be great. And a thin lightning bolt would make alot more sense as single target damage. I don't understand these design decisions. No, this is not about balance, just about style.

✭✭✭✭Lightning can make a bit of sense as an AoE as lightning can arc between contacts so with sufficient voltage, you could send a bolt of electricity into or through something and have that arc to nearby objects without needing physical contact. Plus lightning can explode trees by heating up trapped water and air molecules inside so there's an AoE blast.Gold Dragons Guildmaster PC-NACR2000+Kalthar Wolf-Brother – EP Templar - 50 Maeli Valen - EP NB - 50Naps-During-Trials – EP Templar - 50Rulnakh - EP Sorc - 50Azrael Krieg - EP NB – 50Uvithasa Telvanni – EP DK – 50More-Tail - EP Warden - 50Narile Galen - EP Sorc - 50Bone Soldier - EP Necro - 50Naps-During-Trails - EP Necro - 500 -

✭Flavour wise they both suit aoe. I think they are going for the lightning arcing between multiple targets idea.
I see where you're coming from but this is how it is.0
