Warden Class Refresh Concern (Frost)

Please preserve the functionality of Crystalized Slab and Arctic Wind. Being able to use one ability to Damage or Heal based on whether enemies are around you is very convenient and I love Crystalized Slab as a way to counterattack ranged foes through active defense. This is my only real concern with changes to the Class Refresh, other than if you remove the Frost Skill Line which would make me a sad Orc.

    I love crystal slab but I REALLY HATE that arctic blast isn’t a reliable heal anymore. It used to heal AND do damage consistently and no one I’ve witnessed had a problem with that.

    I have always disliked the heal on Arctic Blast and wish that it would be removed entirely in favor of more damage.

    Damage skills should damage. Healing skills should heal.

    Crystalized slab is fine but Arctic blast absolutely sucks. warden is already a close to mid-range class so having to dip in and out of combat just to top yourself off is really annoying

    I'm just hoping the follow the direction they did in the DK rework in making all the damage abilities do fire damage. If this pattern holds true, then all Warden abilities should do frost damage and all Sorcerer abilities should do shock damage after the rework.

    I hope they at least remove the "if you dont hit any enemies" condition from blast. Its annoying as.

    If Arctic Blast does a heal and damage and the numbers are not reduced it would be amazing. I am just concerned Development might completely scrap the perk since it might feel too strong on the development side. IMO just let it be strong and both heal and damage.

    From player side I think if implemented as the above are suggesting it would be strong but not broken.

    Given how the refresh is supposed to work, i cant imagine blast retaining the heal and stun. Hell, it might not even keep the up-front burst. Though it would be cool if you could shoot a line travelling ice tornado with arctic blast. Maybe as a high damage proc that would be fun! Oooh that makes me want to design it.
