When to Use It
In PvE, Prophecy of Wind is the top choice for classes whose DPS scales with attack speed: daggers, archers and dual-wielders. Faster swings mean more crits and more damage per second. In PvP, the movement speed gives a tactical edge — you can chase down or escape from an opponent. During castle sieges, Prophecy of Wind is popular with mobile groups running fast flank raids.
Tips
Prophecy of Wind is the best pick when your party mixes physical and magic classes, since speed helps everyone. For pure physical DDs with high base damage, Prophecy of Fire can be stronger. For mages, Prophecy of Water is clearly better. Remember that the buff lasts only 5 minutes — the Prophet needs to refresh it on time.
