Water/Fire

Has anyone tried this combo? It looks like it could be an AOE beast if you survive long enough.

I team with a guy who plays one and he does indeed put out AoE damage insanely. Fortunately, Water provides a metric ton of mitigation and therefore the extra damage in /Fire is leveraged quite nicely.

I have a water/fire blaster and i can honestly say that it's a very nice little monster to play. The combination of whirlpool, water blast, and combustion go together like pb & j!

Have you played with combustion? It looks like a solid power on paper, but for 2xp weekend I made my first /Fire toon and my ghod was that power disappointing. Maybe it gets worthwhile later on, but I skipped and and happily took it out of my build.
