Hydro spell vi is a powerful water-based spell used by skilled water mages. It is a variant of the original hydro spell, but with enhanced capabilities and a greater level of control over water elements. This spell allows the caster to manipulate and shape water in various ways, such as creating powerful water attacks or forming protective barriers. The hydro spell vi requires a high level of mastery over water magic, as it involves channeling and harnessing vast amounts of water energy. It is commonly used in combat situations, as it enables the caster to create devastating water-based attacks that can easily incapacitate enemies. The spell can be cast in various forms, such as launching concentrated water projectiles or summoning a torrential wave to sweep away adversaries.

The spell can be cast in various forms, such as launching concentrated water projectiles or summoning a torrential wave to sweep away adversaries. In addition to offensive capabilities, hydro spell vi also provides the ability to create defensive barriers. Water mages can create a shield of water around themselves or others, which can block incoming attacks and provide protection.
A bored guy reviews every skill in the game 4: Hydrosophist
Hey and hi. I've got too much time to kill, so I'm going to just go through every skill in the game and give them all a little review. Numbers are taken from the fextralife wiki, since I can't find any better resource. Minor spoilers may be included. No number ratings or stars or thumbs, this is all purely qualitative. My opinion is not law, and both corrections and disagreements are welcome! Going alphabetically, so Hydrosophist is up next.
Hydrosophist skills are associated with Water damage, magical armor, healing, Wet, Chilled, and Frozen. Water and Ice surfaces and Steam clouds set up Elemental Affinity for Hydrosophist skills. Hydrosophist pairs well with Aerotheurge, thanks to complementary surfaces and statuses, and with Geomancer, thanks to a mutual interest in armor restoration, but has some anti-synergy with Pyrokinetic. Beyond the standard Water damage you'd expect, Hydrosophist can also do Physical damage to Undead enemies with healing spells.
Armour of Frost
- Requires Hydro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 13m range - Scales with Hydro - Provides 170% Magical Armour, in addition to armor from equipment. Removes Burning, Poisoned, Stunned, Frozen, Suffocating, and Petrified
This is one of the best healing spells in the game. The difference between having magical armor and not having magical armor is huge, and Armour of Frost provides a lot of magical armor instantly. If someone is getting focused, throwing this on them is a great way of keeping them in the fight. Because it adds armor instead of healing armor, you can also throw this on early in anticipation of damage as a buffer. This can also cure some hard CC statuses and give you back entire turns you'd otherwise have lost. You should probably have at least someone in the party with this skill available for every fight.
- Requires Hydro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 8m range, 8m (?) radius - Not resisted - Creates water surfaces over the radius. Sets Wet on characters in the radius.
This is complete combo fodder, and that's why we all love it. Water is a very malleable surface, and there are a wide variety of spells that let you do whatever you want with it: Ignition, Electric Discharge, Turn to Oil, Global Cooling, Contamination, etc. Rain is the starting point to many combos. Because Rain doesn't deal any damage and water doesn't evaporate if you leave it alone, you can cast this on probably battlegrounds before the fight and save the AP without raising any alarms. Wet isn't resisted by armor, and gives a cool -10% Water resistance and -20% Air resistance, so you can get some easy free damage even if you don't plan on doing any combo shenanigans. You also get easy Elemental Affinity for your Hydro skills off of this.
- Requires Hydro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 13m range - Scales with Hydro. Damage to Undead scales with Hydro, Warfare, Huntsman (?) - Damage to Undead resisted by Physical Armor - Provides. some amount. of healing, and applies a healing status for two turns. Cures Poisoned, Bleeding, Burning.
An incredibly important spell in Fort Joy, where armor is weak and expensive and you have to rely on Vitality to stay in the fight. As the game goes on, armor values go up and HP damage becomes less of an issue. If you've lost enough armor that you're taking HP damage in the later bits of the game, you're also taking a lot of CC effects which can lose you the fight outright. In the lategame you also have a lot of free points in Necromancer from equipment on many of your characters.
As heals go, Restoration is one of the better ones, with a good amount of up-front heals, some healing over time to keep you going, a cheap AP cost, and good range. As a damage tool to Undead, the Regenarating effect can stack on a lot of extra damage and isn't prevented by armor. The most glaring problem that it has is that it does not cure or prevent any CC statuses, but come on, you really can't be hoping to get everything in the world on this 1 AP spell.
- Requires Hydro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 3 AP - 13m range. Each projectile has a radius of about 0.5m (?), and the grouping of all three covers about a 1m radius. - Scales with Int, Hydro, Huntsman - Blocked by Magical Armor - Three projectiles fall from the sky in a triangular-ish pattern, dealing 40% Water damage each and setting Chilled. Creates an Ice surface.
This is a bit of a good news/bad news spell. The best thing is that, since each projectile applies Chilled individually, and Chilled + Chilled is Frozen, this spell alone can take someone all the way from Warm to Frozen. With no setup besides having broken through most of an enemy's magical armor, you can just straight up apply a hard CC. It does have an AoE, so it can potentially do so to two enemies at one.
3 AP is pretty unfortunate, but luckily you're playing Hydro and have easy access to Elemental Affinity from Rain. The main issue with this spell is the hitboxes on the hail. You need to have all three of the radii for the hail match up like a ven diagram to get full value. It's very difficult to tell exactly where they're going to land relative to whatever target you have in mind. They're also blocked by ceilings. If you only hit two of these, you can still get the freeze on an unarmored enemy, but suddenly you're down to 80% damage from a 3 AP spell, and it is very easy to miss one.
If you're looking for Magical Armour damage instead of the freeze, the damage here is unimpressive even if you do hit all three. That aside, you're better off saving the cooldown until you can pick up the freeze.
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 5m radius - Scales with Hydro - Heals 35% (?) Magical Armor instantly to allies in the radius, and applies a status that restores 35% (?) Magical Armor per turn for 3 turns.
This was buffed in the Definitive Edition, but I don't know by how much. It lets you heal (not add) Magical Armor across your party, and while the immediate amount is rather low, if you anticipate a long fight it will provide you with a lot of value for a measly 1 AP. The only point of armor that matters is the last one, so providing an instant armor heal at all is still helpful. If you're playing a hyper-offensive build that hopes to end fights in one or two turns it may not be worth the AP to cast this, but in any long fights this will help win you the war of attrition, at least of the magical side. Obviously pretty useless in physical-based encounters. I find this a little better than Mend Metal as the worst status effects, like Charmed or Mad, are magic-based.
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 2 AP - 13m range, 3m (?) radius - Scales with Int, Hydro, Huntsman - Resisted by Magic Armor. - Deals 110% Water damage and sets Chilled to all enemies in its radius. Turns Water/Blood surfaces into Ice/Frozen Blood.
Just a real basic and good bread-and-butter damage spell. 110% damage is good, and setting Chilled can lead to Frozen pretty easily. Good stuff.
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 3 AP - 13m range, 1m (?) radius - Scales with Int, Hydro, Huntsman - Resisted by Magic Armor - Fires three projectiles at targets of your choice within range. Each does 45% Water damage and sets chilled.
"I'm a Hydrosophist, you know, so I'm a big ice fan."
Basically, this is Hail Strike without all the problems. Much easier to hit, wider AoE, and even deals a skosh more damage. If you're only interested in the freeze, you also have the option to split targets, which is convenient (though I mostly fire off all three in the same spot). It still costs 3 AP, but again Hydro has the easiest time holding onto Elemental Affinity so this can be mitigated. This shouldn't replace Hail Strike, as having a good freeze option while this is on cooldown is still handy, but it should be your first pick of the two as its a straight upgrade.
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 10m (?) radius - Scales with Int, Hydro - Resisted by Magic Armor - Deals 50% Water damage to all enemies in range and sets Chilled. Water/Blood surfaces are turned into Ice/Frozen Blood.
For 1 AP and over such a large range, the damage isn't really all that terrible. Setting Chilled off 1 AP across basically the whole map also makes this good for CC. Hell, if Magic Armor is gone Rain + Global Cooling is will freeze everyone around for a measly 2 AP. Rain + Global Cooling also creates mass ice surfaces, which you can use with other Hydro spells like Ice Breaker, or you can just leave up to make people slip and fall. Very convenient!
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 2 AP - 13m range - Scales with Hydro. - Allies only - Target cannot act for 1 turn. Target gains +100 resistance to all elements, physical damage, and Piercing damage. Target is immune to Burning, Stunned, Poison, Charmed, Terrified, Bleeding, Petrified, Taunted, Sleeping, Shocked, Shackles of Pain. Cancels Shackles of Pain. Target is healed for. some amount. of HP once the status wears off.
Skipping one of your turns on purpose is something you usualy want to avoid, so right off the bat this shows that its not really a general-purpose skill. If you're using this as a desperate heal, you should you know that this is not Invulnerability. If you have negative resistances to any element for some reason, it will subtract from the +100 resist and you can still take damage. It will give heals, but won't help you with Armor at all.
So when do you cast this? Well, it works wonders when you cast it on NPC allies that you don't want fucking things up. Gwydian. In addition, if you have an ally under a CC effect that you can't cure at the moment, Permafrost won't fix the CC but it will at least protect them from damage (though using a scroll or something to clear the CC is usually better). In general, you shouldn't cast this unless you're absolutely certain.
- Requires Hydro 2 - Costs 1 Memory - 2 AP - 13m range, 5m (?) forking range - Scales with Hydro. Damage to Undead scales with Hydro, Warfare, Huntsman (?) - Damage to Undead resisted by Physical Armor - Heals a target for. some amount. of damage. The spell will jump to nearby undead enemies and un-undead allies nearby. Does not hit the same target twice. Will not fork to undead allies.
The targeting is a little unintuitive. If you have a bunch of allies nearby, just. throw this in their general direction. It'll get some, probably. The forking can get really high if there are undead enemies or friendly summons around to extend the chain. For healing, I feel like various 1 AP healing spells are generally betterW, but when you do need some AoE healing this is convenient, I suppose. But for Undead enemy parties, this is practically a budget Chain Lightning.
- Requires Hydro 3 - Costs 1 Memory - 4 AP - 8m (?) range, 60-ish degree arc - Scales with Int, Hydro - Resisted by Magical Armor - Deals 150% Water damage and sets Frozen to targets in front of the cast. Targets that up Frozen and with
Regarding the instant-kill: it's applied after the attack here, not before. Basically, if you get someone only mostly dead, the game will give you that extra tiny bit of damage to kill them for good. It's not as big a deal as it sounds. This is not a spell you setup for big instakills, it just means that occasionally you get a little boost.
Anyway, 150% damage is good, direct Freeze (skipping Chilled/Wet entirely) is good, the cone is good. But 4 AP is terrible. That's an entire turn! Since it has the cone going on, you may need to do a jump or teleport to be able to get the optimal position, at which point you can't even cast it anymore. Elemental Affinity helps, but not as much here as it does for the 3 AP spells, as the reduced-price 3 AP still monopolizes most of the turn, while with affinity you can cast Ice Fan and Hail Strike on the same turn. The AP cost just makes this spell aggressively unflexible.
- Requires Hydro 3 - Costs 2 Memory - 3 AP, 1 SP - 13m range - Scales with Hydro - Fully restores target's Magical Armor. Removes Frozen, Stunned, Petrified, Suffocating, Poisoned, Burning, Necrofire, Terrified, Silenced, Taunted, Mad
This covers a lot of CC effects, and healing Magical Armor is better than just healing HP. The issue is the cost - 3 AP and 1 SP is a lot for a purely defensive tool for a single ally. An Armour of Frost scroll and Peace of Mind scroll will pull off basically the same results, cost less AP, and save you an SP. Or you could cast an offensive source spell and start winning the fight instead of just not losing it. This is probably stronger on Lone Wolf compositions, where one ally is more significant and you have the AP to throw around big spells - on the other hand, on Lone Wolf a 1 SP source spell will basically win the fight outright, so why bother?
- Requires Hydro 3 - Costs 2 Memory - 2 AP, 2 SP - 13m range - Creates a line of Blessed Steam. Blessed Steam clouds heal. some amount. of HP per turn for characters in their area.
Cast this spell if you want to see Cursed Steam Clouds in a few turns.
Rain + Bless will also create a healing surface, but over a wider area and for 1 less SP. And that's still bad! This is hot trash.
- Requires Hydro 3 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 13m (?) range - Scales with Int, Hydro, Ice surfaces - Resisted by Magical Armor - Nearby Ice surfaces are turned into Water surfaces. Deals. some amount. of Water damage to enemies on the Ice surfaces and sets Chilled
I don't have damage numbers handy, but the damage is real high for a 1 AP spell. Ice isn't hard to make, and enemies you've already hit with stuff like Hail Strike will already be standing in it. If you cast something like Rain + Global Cooling + Ice Breaker, you not only deal damage from Cooling and from here, you also get to keep the Water surfaces from the rain! This is also a handy way to get a cheap Freeze off if you only managed Chilled/Wet on an enemy and they happen to be standing on ice. You do need to set this up, so it's not free, but it's ultimately not too difficult so long as you don't have Pyro or Geo guys on your team messing with your surfaces.
- Requires Hydro 5 - Costs 3 Memory - 4 AP, 3 SP - 13m range, 4m radius - Scales with Int, Hydro, Huntsman (?) - Resisted by Magical Armor - 20 projectiles fall within the radius, each dealing 80% Water damage and setting Chilled.
If you hit all twenty on one guy, it's 1600% Water damage at once, which is legitimately gigantic. That's not going to happen except on very large enemies. Against human-sized ones, maybe you hit like 8 to 10 spread amongst a bunch of targets, which is still good damage, and you'll also probably set multiple Freezes. The big and early CC is very appealing, setting you up to finish them off next turn. A strong spell totally worth the asking price. It's not like you have any alternative Source spells for dealing Water damage anyway - this is the only game in town.
Cryotherapy - previously featured on Huntsman
- Requires Huntsman 1, Hydro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - Self only - Scales with Hydro, Frozen surfaces - Frozen surfaces near the caster are removed. Caster heals Magic armor proportional to the amount of ice. Removes Burning, Necrofire.
Remember - this heals magical armor, it doesn't add magical armor. Once you get up the the magical armour amount you had from your equipment, the overflow just disappears. The amount of healing is large, but you need to have lost a lot of magical armor already to get that full value. Because of this, Rain + Global Cooling + Cyrotherapy is a bit more limited than you would have expected. Ice can be melted, but at least it doesn't explode like Oil, so it's a bit easier to retain frozen surfaces if you want to cast this later in the fight compared to Oily Carapace. If you are keeping Ice around, remember to apply nails to your boots. Regardless, Armour of Frost generally does Cyrotherapy's job better and easier.
Mass Cryotherapy - previously featured on Huntsman
- Requires Huntsman 2, Hydro 2 - Costs 2 Memory - 2 AP, 1 SP - 8m (?) radius - Scales with Hydro, Frozen surfaces - Allies within range have frozen surfaces near them removed, and their Magical Armour is healed relative to the amount of ice. Removes Burning, Necrofire.
If your team is getting beat up on the magical front, this can be a way to get back into fighting shape quickly. It's easier to set up Rain + Global Cooling + Mass Cyrotherapy than Rain + Turn to Oil + Mass Oily Carapace because, again, ice doesn't explode. I still think this is a little niche even with those extra benefits, especially if you're paying an SP.
- Requires Hydro 1, Necro 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 2 AP - 8m range, 8m (?) radius - Resisted by Physical armor - Creates Blood surfaces in the area and sets Bleeding on characters in the area for 3 turns.
The extra AP cost means this isn't as useful as Rain just for creating a mass surface to use with stuff like Global Cooling, Turn to Oil, etc. This should be cast when you specifically want Blood surfaces. Blood in particular is useful for elemental affinity, but the main reason to cast this is Grasp of the Starved.
In addition, on Torturer builds this can dish out mass Bleed to start whittling away at opponent's health for Piercing damage. Raining Blood + Contaminate + Ignition can set up Bleeding, Burning, and Poisoned all at once on a very wide area if you're running Torturer, which really starts to stack up damage.
- Requires Hydro 3, Necro 3 - Costs 3 Memory - 4 AP, 3 SP - 13m (?) range, 10m radius - Scales with Int, Warfare - Resisted by Physical armor - All Water surfaces in the area are converted to Blood surfaces. Projectiles fall onto enemy characters in the radius, dealing 100% Physical damage, setting Diseased and Decaying, and generating a Blood surface. One set of projectiles falls immediately, and they fall again at the start of the caster's next two turns.
This got nerfed pretty hard in the Definitive edition, specifically reducing the damage. They also nerfed Grasp of the Starved, so Apotheosis + Blood Storm + Grasp of the Starved is no longer an uber-broken combo.
Even post-nerf, this still dishes out a lot of damage over time. It has the benefit of just hitting the enemy on the head directly, rather than just throwing a bunch of projectiles into an area and seeing what sticks. The up-front damage isn't anything amazing for single targets, and you don't get any CC but this more-or-less hits the whole enemy party and the damage stacks up over time. I think this spell is still worth casting in a post-nerf world.
- Requires Hydro 1, Poly 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 2m radius, on self - No scaling - When an ally walks within the radius, that character gets a healing status effect applied to them for four turns. Applies once per character, and can impact up to three allies. Teleports and jumps that land within the radius will still activate the heal. This *will* hit Undead allies, and will ignore Undead enemies.
It stinks that this doesn't have smart-targeting for Undead like Healing Ritual, as it would be neat to have an AoE physical attack against undead. Oh well.
To maximize this, you need to keep your allies bundled together, which is generally inadvisable for a bunch of reasons. In addition, they need to move close to you for the heal to go off, not the other way around. In an emergency situation, you need a heal off immediately, not whenever the injured party gets to move - CC and just plain death might prevent their turn entirely. You can set this up as a proactive heal, as it does last a long time, but Mend Metal/Soothing Cold will do the job better and more easily.
- Requires Hydro 2, Poly 2 - Costs 2 Memory - 1 AP, 1 SP - Self only - +100 Water resist. -30 Fire resist. You bleed Ice. Immune to Frozen and Chilled. Lasts 2 turns.
If you were really worried about specific elemental damage in a fight, there are potions for that, more than you'll usually ever end up using. Bleeding Ice is not very useful - Elemental Affinity is easy via Rain, and if you don't have nails in your boots you could end up slipping on your own blood if you try to walk. There are two specific enemies I can think of where I'm worried about mass Water damage - Aetera and the Kraken - but again a good potion will do the job and save the SP.
- Requires Hydro 1, Scoundrel 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 2m range - Scales with damage dealt - Target heals HP for 50% of damage dealt to Vitality for two turns. Stacks with Necromancer, heals Undead instead of damaging them.
2m range is lame. Mostly the issue here is that you have to cast it in advance to get value, and you really can't rely on HP healing to keep you up and running through a fight because of CC effects. HP heals are mostly an emergency thing, and this can't help much in an emergency situation. Enemies who are actively being CC'd can't get use out of this at all, as they aren't doing damage anyway. It also doesn't heal you at all if you're still breaking armor, which blows. It is cheap, though.
Vampiric Hunger Aura
- Requires Hydro 2, Scoundrel 2 - Costs 2 Memory - 1 AP, 1 SP - 8m (?) range - Scales with damage dealt - Applies Vampiric Hunger to all allies within the radius for two turns.
You only get full value out of this if your whole party if taking HP damage, and if your whole party is taking HP you are already totally fucked. However, it's so cheap (SP aside) that you might just cast it on the off-chance one or two allies might find it useful. It has the same issue of not being a particularly reactive heal in emergencies, but at least it's not melee range anymore. I don't usually cast this, though.
- Requires Geo 1, Summoner 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 1 AP - 13m range - Incarnate only - Incarnate's element is changed to Water. Incarnate gets Restoration.
It's easy to get a Water infusion just from spawning the Incarnate on a water surface either just natively on the battlefield or spawned from Rain. That said, I avoid spawning Water Incarnates in general. The other elements get a bread-and-butter combat spell, but this guy gets. Restoration? I summon incarnates to hit things! Without a combat spell around the Incarnate has significantly less potential as Water than as any other element.
- Requires Hydro 2, Summoner 2 - Costs 2 Memory - 1 AP, 2 SP - 13m range - Incarnate only - Incarnate's element is changed to Ice. Incarnate gets Restoration and Steam Lance.
Still no combat spell? Friggin Steam Lance? Jesus fuck, dude.
- Requires Hydro 1, Warfare 1 - Costs 1 Memory - 2 AP - 2m range - Scales with Hydro. Damage to Undead scales with Hydro, Warfare - Damage to Undead resisted by Physical Armor - Heals target for. some amount. and creates a Water surface beneath them. Removes Burning, Diseased, Decaying, Poisoned, Bleeding.
I'd pay 1 AP for this, or stick with 2 AP and give it full range, or stick to 2 AP and short range but healing everyone in that range. But being expensive, short range, and single-target kills this for me. The only serious advantage it has over regular ol' restoration is removing Decaying and (probably?) doing a bit more up-front healing. Not worth all the extra limitations involved.
Mass Cleanse Wounds
- Requires Hydro 2, Warfare 2 - Costs 2 Memory - 2 AP, 1 SP - 8m radius - Scales with Hydro. Damage to Undead scales with Hydro, Warfare - Damage to Undead resisted by Physical Armor - Heals all allies (including allied Undead) and enemy Undead within range for. some amount, and creates a Water surface beneath them. Removes Burning, Diseasedd, Decaying, Poisoned, Bleeding.
A big ol' AoE heal where you don't have to worry about Decaying, and in some fights you'll get some damage to Undead out of it too. So many heals are single-target or have weird targeting or conditions, so it's nice to have one that's a nice and simple AoE heal (though I'm still waiting on the heal-equivalent of Fireball). Besides that, I don't have much to say - just how many healing spells are we at now?
This makes hydro spell vi a versatile spell that can be used in both offensive and defensive strategies. To cast hydro spell vi, a water mage must first draw upon nearby water sources or moisture in the air. The mage then focuses their energy and concentration to manipulate and control the water. This process requires precision and skill, as the water mage needs to have a deep understanding of the water element and how to manipulate its properties effectively. Overall, hydro spell vi is an advanced water-based spell that offers a wide range of abilities to water mages. It showcases the power and versatility of water magic and requires a high level of skill and mastery to utilize its full potential. Whether used in combat or for defensive purposes, hydro spell vi is a force to be reckoned with in the hands of a skilled water mage..
Reviews for "The Economic Implications of Implementing Hydro Spell VI"
1. Alice - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with Hydro spell vi. The storyline was weak and the characters felt flat. It was hard for me to connect with any of them, and I found myself getting bored halfway through the book. The writing style also didn't captivate me, it felt too plain and lacked any unique voice or flair. Overall, I don't think I'll be picking up another book by this author in the future.
2. John - 1 star - Hydro spell vi was a complete letdown for me. The pacing was all over the place, with moments of intense action followed by long periods of stagnation. I found myself confused and disinterested in the main plot, which was poorly developed. The dialogue was also highly unrealistic and forced, making it difficult to engage with the characters. I was left feeling unsatisfied and wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.
3. Emily - 3 stars - I had high hopes for Hydro spell vi, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. While the concept was interesting and the world-building had potential, the execution of the story left much to be desired. The narrative felt disjointed at times, jumping from one event to another without proper transitions. The characters lacked depth and growth, making it hard for me to emotionally invest in their journey. Overall, it was an okay read, but I expected more from it.
4. Michael - 2 stars - Hydro spell vi was a struggle to get through. The pacing was extremely slow, and the plot lacked cohesion. It felt like a jumble of random events instead of a cohesive story. The prose was also overly descriptive, with unnecessary details that didn't add anything meaningful to the narrative. I found myself skimming through paragraphs just to get to something interesting, but unfortunately, that never really happened. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone looking for a captivating and well-paced fantasy read.
5. Sarah - 2 stars - Hydro spell vi was a disappointment for me. The characters felt one-dimensional and lacked any real complexity. The romance subplot was forced and lacked chemistry, making it hard to root for the love interest. Additionally, the world-building was underwhelming, with limited details and a lack of depth. Overall, I found the book to be a generic and forgettable fantasy read.
