Ice Evocation

[Roguealicious 34]

Is this a thing? I couldn't find any guides, or mention of it anywhere...

I want to try and give this a go on a character. If it doesnt exist, then maybe I could develop it into existance after learning water evocation?

Experienced Hydromancers can summon ice already. :3

It's a form of water evocation

[Lago 2572]

It used to be under water evokation. Yeah, you can do it.

[Cyndikate 2303]

Ice Evocation is definitely doable, but only in the late stages of Water Evocation. Once your character is confident in his control of the water, he/she can begin conjuring ice, but it's a very hard thing to accomplish. Your character needs to study the ice material, the hardness, how it melts, and how it keeps its form. Doing that and you're well on your way to conjuring ice.

So if I mastered water evocation, would it be possible (and lore friendly) to develop it into it's own form of magic? Or is it purely bound to water evocation?

Unfortunately, it'd be pretty redundant to make an ice magic lore since you can do it with water evocation.

 

Just practice your water evo and then start learning ice.

It's actually rather easy. A journeyman Hydromancer could summon it rather simply.

 I suggest speaking with an experienced Water Evocationist about this topic, it'll make it less confusing.

In short yes, you can do just ice magic but you have to learn water first. Once you have learned water you can basically forget about using it and just do the ice and with magic being sort of in a free-roam I doubt you will face much trouble with pure ice evocation.

New forms of magic that do what existing magics can already do is generally quite frowned upon. As evoking ice is already an established part of water evocation, the only really purpose for having it to be its own subtype would be so you can cut the corner of having to get advanced in water evocation. In magic, cutting corners is highly frowned upon, especially by established mages

That would be me.

If you mean Journeyman as in T2, they can't use ice yet. They can barely sustain the water orb they cast. T3 which is adept level, you can use ice, but barely. But Ice is only doable at the late stages of T3, ONCE the hydromancer is confident in his abilities of controlling water.

Know any that might be able to help?

We opened magic so people could have more freedom in how they went about magic, especially the arcane magics. That means that while it might be "cutting corners" you can indeed go forth and learn ice evocation as long as it follows the magic guidelines set before it because it currently exists in another form. Nothing wrong with taking parts of a magic.

Creating ice is an advanced method of Water Evocation.
