Official Overview (Blizzard)

The Primal Council works together to wipe out players with elemental attacks.

The elemental magics of the Primal Council's abilities can interact with each other in different ways to both advantage and detriments.

Damage Dealers

Healers

• Meteor Axes split damage evenly amongst players hit and destroy Earthen Pillars. • Primal Blizzard inflicts heavy damage to all players and can trap them in Frost Tombs.
