Okay, off the topic of leveling, and onto elementals, who came up with the order of elementals? I'd also like to see all of the elementals serve some sort of purpose instead of everyone just using the Fire one all the time. The Water one reaches if I remember, and might be able to trip??? which might make you use it once in a blue moon.
There's no reason to use the fire one all the time. Despite the fact that you get them at different levels, the elementals are all exactly the same power. They only differ in things like reach and resistances.
There is every reason to use the fire one all the time. Try using a water elemental in PK. Try using an earth elemental when tracking down some other group that's fleeing a fight. Watch what happens to an air elemental vs the same kind of things that a fire elemental could shrug off.
Fire elemental is the only valuable elemental to use, ever. Not to mention, it's also the only one immune to a majority of a warlock's AoE spells, when it's even possible to use them.
