    To follow up on this, Glacial glissade seems to be considered as Water Damage when it should be treated as Physical damage (from the tooltip). Anything that resists water spells also resists Glacial Glissade, unlike other combos like Splintering Strike/Shocked Arrow that ignore the magical resistance and are considered Physical. I was doing 0-3 damage with Glacial glissade on trolls and elementals when it's supposed to do 150+ Physical damage.

    This is probably a good case for dev. review - to determine if the damage from these should all be considered physical or based on the element type of the tree involved. There seems to be an inconsistency. Adding to dev review queue and tagging @Chris here on the thread.
