ELR frost or fire damage

[krusty]

ELR mage running frost-beam build. Frost damage makes sense but i have seen some mages using fire damage which makes sense with Frostfire sash.
Which one would increase DPS frost or fire damage. Anyone has exp with that? Thanks!

You need frost for both frostbeam and thermal shock. So 4 times frost

I think +Fire doesn't boost frostfire sash DoT (I tested it a while ago and am not 100% sure).

For push and higher trials xp farming, use +frost. It boosts both the beam and thermal shock.

For lower level trials you can use +fire to boost shatter damage (e.g. t80-90 materials farming). That's useful for lower trials where you are overpowered and kill the mobs with 1-2 shatters. Usually for this you'd use a DfA build though, as it is somewhat faster.
