✭✭✭✭✭Just remember not to heavy attack with an ice staff unless leaving the points out of that passive. Seen it happen a couple times.1 -
Tecorsuh✭✭Dear Ice staff users,
If you don't plan on tanking, don't use an ice staff; the heavy attack is a taunt. You can't heavy attack to get magicka back without ripping aggro from me.
Thank you,
Most Tanks
P.S. There probably isn't anything wrong with your build, just don't use an ice staff.
P.P.S. You don't provide a description of intended roll, any skill loadouts, skill rotation, ect.

If you're going to damage it's better to go for the passive and use the appropriate staff for the skills you use (Fire for single target, Shock for aoes). If it's just thematic, don't put the points in.

Because some players like to play roles that aren't necessarily min/max ... including an ice mage role.Dear Ice staff users,
If you don't plan on tanking, don't use an ice staff; the heavy attack is a taunt. You can't heavy attack to get magicka back without ripping aggro from me.

Careful ... some players (including my Warden) don't have skill points invested in the first destro passive.
Don't just assume we're taking away aggro when we take our ice staff into the group.
I've been on the other side of that a lot on my tank, however ... so I get it.
