Water

Keep your allies alive with powerful storms and flowing water. Command water in and around allies and enemies. Bend and blast water into incredible streams and torrents to unleash a flood of destruction, or shape it into awe-inspiring constructs to wash away your enemies in the Damage role. Soothe the wounds of your allies or envelop them and yourself with the shielding power of water in the Healer role. And turn the tides of conflicts with High Tide by pulling strength from the mystical energies of the ocean depths.
