Elemental Blockade or Unstable Wall?

Let's say I create an ice warden and on the bar with the frost staff I have the two skills that can cause AoE dmg (the names escape me at the moment), ideally which morph of wall of elements would be better? The one that lasts 2 seconds longer so I can keep the frost AoE going for longer? Or the one that causes extra dmg on expiration?

    Depends on your role I suppose.

    I would assume if you are dps then more damage, but frost is tricky because you are aware your frost from this skill will slow them down right? So in a since your cold use it from crowd control so the long one might end being the better choice after all.

    If you are tank or healer then the long one provides more supportive skill choice. The only exception is if you are a hybrid dps/tank or healer /tank.

    The difference in area is massive, and so the morphs are thoroughly unbalanced.

    Elemental Blockade is one of the premier damage skills in the game. Unstable Wall of Elements is only a fraction as good.

    If you have a hig crit/high sustain build, then I'ld go for UWoE (lit staff)

    For any other situation, Blockade
    Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

    I was born with the wrong sign
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy
    I took the wrong road
    That led to the wrong tendencies
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
    On the wrong day of the wrong week
    Used the wrong method with the wrong technique

    I've literally never seen unstable wall used once in my entire time playing ESO.

    Blockade is the better morph in both pvp and pve.
