There are 2 things against fire on the ranger for me:

1) I can craft 1 gazillion fire arrows and they never miss...
2) It doesn't really suit the ranger "general lore"... But thanks nevertheless..

Back on what you suggested for the mage... I'm discussing in another thread the possibility of a two-wand witchcrafter. From what I've heard...it's viable. Water... there's already Jahan... wouldn't he suffice?
