331 DD staff charges damage types

I was reviewing the 331 DD charges staves and I feel like mid has a pretty significant advantage compared to hib and alb.

Mid has access to cold, heat and spirit 331DD while hib and alb only have access to cold and spirit.

The fact that mid’s caster debuff train is cold makes for an unfair advantage imo.

Would it be possible to swap the 331 DD charges from cold to heat (or at least change some hib staves from cold tl heat), and do a similar thing on alb, but switching them to either heat/body?

Or just switch the mid 331DD to something they don’t debuff like matter.

A: why do most mid grps have 3 casters then?
B: because 250dmg per charge. 8x staff assist= dead.

i see svg grps alot
8x not possible because htose staffs have class restrictions and can only used by list casters
so 3x 250dmg is only 30g recharge cost ;D

Your comments are irrelevant to the question, a mid RM can 50% debuff cold, and simultanaously (or almost) hit someone with a nuke and a 331+ damage dd.

I would totally run it on my ment and spike people for over 1k (example a skald in the backfield that needs to die quick)

The 331 dd has a 2s cast timer now. They are all equally worthless.

Can’t you initiate the cast and do another cast at the same time?

Well having every caster nuke a 331 cold dd 2 s cast time instead of their normal nukes will make a difference ^^

Make these charges instant cast again. Albion has heat 331 DDs on items. Who cares though they are no longer instant cast. 3 second cast timers. Make pvp more skillful. If you temp with a dd charge item it should be instant cast.
