Usage Notes
Note: This is a projectile spell, and thus is blocked by terrain and can be dodged.
Since Ice Spear has no recharge time and fairly high damage, it is particularly strong when used by a Mesmer primary/Elementalist Secondary with a large investment in Fast Casting.
Keep in mind, however, that in PvP, most targets that are very close to you (i.e. within this spell's reduced range) are usually very dangerous warriors and those that are out of range are spellcasters that will keep their distance. Ice Spear is best used in a build that is planning to be right on top of the enemy.
