- recently I found the incinerate tome just lying somewhere so of course I was ecstatic. I decided to unload it on a giant only to find out that it took out a very minuscule amount of health. I had to switch to fireball to kill it because incinerate simply has to high of a magicka cost. Now what gives. It says it does 75 damage and I have the 50% damage increase for fire damage. Also if fireball didn't do AOE damage I'd probably just stick to firebolt because it says it does 43 or something where as fireball does 50. So someone explain this destruction tree to me. Firebolt is cheap and does decent damage, fireball does AOE damage and slightly more overall damage, and incinerate is supposed to do a ton of damage but costs a ton of magicka. Now I only have the half cost for adept destruction so I think that why incinerate is expensive.
- what magic type (fire, ice lightning) do you guys use and why? I chose fire because fire magic does more damage over time and who doesn't want to do more overall damage, especially as a Mage. I have the flame perks maxed and I'm working on ice. and what is your spell of choice?
- do you think Beth will ever give us magic regeneration during fights? I usually don't need it since I've put almost every perk into magic at level up but when I have like 7 enemies at once or a really hard one and I run out of magic, taking out the bow doesn't help that much lol.
If I think of more questions I'll post them here, thanks guys.
