Tips & Tricks

Lee's Rapid Deconstruction can be painful to lightly armoured characters. If you aren't made out of stone, you can avoid this spell by standing away from walls. If you have low AC, corridor fighting becomes less viable whenever an elementalist shows up.
Gargoyles and players in Statue Form are vulnerable to LRD, and should be especially wary of elementalists.

History

Prior to 0.32, deep elf elementalists had Freezing Cloud instead of Hoarfrost Cannonade.
Prior to 0.31, deep elf elementalists could cast Awaken Earth, a spell that broke rock walls and summoned earth elementals, instead of Lee's Rapid Deconstruction.
Prior to 0.18, they could cast Iron Shot, Summon Air Elementals, Sticky Flame Range, Summon Water Elementals, and Blink.
