Ice Storm doesn’t work at all after switching from Tier III to Tier IV Gauntlet.
Please fix!
Fix the game! As an ice gauntlet fire staff player, why shouldn’t I just be looking forward to classic wow now? Show me.

fix this ffs. Unending thaw armor perk, and punishing storm weapon mastery perk makes the aoe skills from ice gauntlet not working. Even wearing some specific hats for no reason makes the aoe dmg from ice gauntlet not working. HOW in the world from one patch to another do you mess this up to this level? Are you using your elbows while coding? WTF

I am experiencing exactly what is seen in this video. Seems to be completely random as sometimes i do damage, most times i don’t. I only seem to notice issue since Oct 27 patch, is this the case or was happening before?

The same is happening with me and what is worse is that Ice Storm is my MAIN damage dealer from the gauntlet, which sucks and the devs still havent fixed this yet, after a MONTH!!
Seriously, this game is screwed up… this bomb is still in alpha!

Mage build is completely broken now. FIX IT. This spell does literally 0 damage, and 0 cc effects as it stands. Ice gauntlet is completely unplayable. Amazon- you have an entire class completely unplayable. How is this not a high priority?

Spells already fizzled fairly often but half the time I don’t even do damage now with my IG/FS abilities. I’m still leveling and getting my ass kicked.
Perk or perkless ice Storm either deals 1 tick of damage or it doesnt even do the 1 tick.
Tried that on mobs that are smaller and bigger, tried that in pvp, whatever the case damage equals null.
One thing ive noticed was that if you dont take 3rd perk, Storm doesnt dissapear on weapon swap.
Ice storm is just not working at all for me, no dmg or freeze with heavy hit, nothing, same with pillar of fire
Ice storm is doing absolutely nothing, even after changing perks, different gauntlets, armor, passives… come on AGS… this is getting exhausting, at least acknowledge you know this exists.
same issue here please fix
I’ve been using staff/gauntlet ever since I bought the game and there have always been bugs with these weapons.
But last update really messed up some skills (especially the gauntlet’s storm).
Ice storm has become useless. If you cast on 2/3/4+ mobs not everyone of them will get damaged and most of the times only a few ticks will hit the others.
Sometimes no ticks at all will hit the mobs (= 0 damage).
The slow isn’t applied neither.
Same stuff happens in pvp.
Fire staff is also very inconsistent. It’s not as bad as gauntlet but sometimes pillar and fireball’s hits just don’t register.
Bottom line is mage is unplayable. These problems must be addressed asap.
Experiencing the same, wanted to add my voice to the pile. I’m about to spend gold to respec because it’s largely unplayable. I can’t believe I’ll have to spend another 500 gold to spec back once they fix it.
Like the video from @Jooni my ice storm tends to do nothing most of the time, rather than ticking a little then stopping.
All AOE spells are somehow broken right now 
Combat is done, game over.

Wanted to leave my comment to. Mage is no longer playable until they fix this. Not only ice storm. Pilar of fire doesn’t hit all the times and fierball sometimes goes trhough enemies. GG amazon. F for the mage
I’m genuinely upset that this could even occur then not even address it after days of posts and requests for some sort of communication. UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE.
This is ridiculous. All my AOE skills don’t work. Ice storm and pillar of fire almost never activate and it ruins magic builds. Fix this asap!

Completely broken and unplayable. Photo 1 taken directly after I cast Ice Storm photo 2 is 3s later still at full health. Ice Storm is one of my most used spells when using the gauntlets so I cannot use them at all until this gets fixed.
Let’s make a list and see what is it right now to play mage:
- Pillar of fire: sometimes it doesnt hit, sometimes if you hold shift after a dodge or whatever button, and you cast it on top of yourself
- Meteor shower: Grit from Fiery Determination sometimes isn’t working as you can still get interrupted by stuff that shouldn’t go over gritt (stagger/stun/root)
- Clear mind and most empowers don’t work or they expire if you press “tab” (inventory)
- Fireball sometimes falls inside the ground/flies through enemies
- Prophet of a Fire God passive (beside the very unprofessional typo in it’s description) doesn’t give an increase to crit damage like the other crit damage perks but instead is increasing the value of other crit damage sources.
- Incinirate sometimes doesnt hit for damage or knockback or one or the other (lmao)
- Flamethrower stops dealing damage mid cast
- Burnout doesnt do damage sometimes
- Not gonna repeat myself on Ice Storm
- Ice shower is just a visual wall of friendly snow people and mobs can enjoy and go through without getting rooted/slowed
- Entombed (iceblock) sometimes doesn’t just work and you take damage anyway or if you cancel it too fast because of the clunky game animations that makes you spam your defensive ability you might get the animation and be “frozen” type of thing but still able to walk and of course take damage, missleading to the fact your entombed is soaking the damage.
Conclusions: 8/12 spells are completely broken, 2/12 are somehow broken and this killed completely the mage. Most people is either quitting or swapping class.
BUT THIS IS APPLYING TO ALL AOE SPELLS:
Hammer aoe no stun no damage sometimes, bow poison cloud doesnt poison people, rain of arrows hits the moon going up and never coming down.
Gravity Well is somehow always working and the way it’s hidden debuff works makes me think it’s very different than any other AOE ability in the game.
Meanwhile people running around stacking infinite bloodrage hatchet and macro swapping weapons so they can use Machine Guns since everything else is broken and doesn’t hit.
