Just to clarify:
Elkrosians have lightning bolt, chain lightning and lightning spear (of which was only added circa 2005). That is three offensive spells. Am I missing anything? (I suppose you could count paralyze).
Whirans have wind fist, guardian (more subtle but can most certainly be used offensively) and hands of wind (see guardian)
One could make the argument they compare in terms of offensive spells.
There's no denying that Whirans are incredibly amazing as they can travel the known practically undetected, but hell, so can Elkrosians, albeit on the ground.
If you have a dummy account with 6 karma, try rolling an elkrosi:
*throw up e.shield *make sure regen is on *quicken yourself
Oh hai, you're now The Flash.
Elkrosian would be my favorite magicker, but Whiran is right there behind it. There's just something so satisfying about hands of winding or repelling people into bad spots.

Probably the fact that they die just by being in your presence? Kind of unnerving to just get thrown around the shield wall and get KO'd and become helpless.
I'll never understand why most players IC don't fear death, it irks me that they would even try to fight a magicker.

Whirans are 10000% my favorite guild. I've played dozens. I've pked one person one time, because they were the reason for dozens of people my pc cared about being killed. I'mma level with you when I say this: If I had an account with enough karma to play a whiran (Before they moved from 4 to 6, I did), I would have never gotten pissy about being turned down on every special app I went for for one for a year, and never would have gotten angry at Wug, and never would have came here and started posting. That was the root of why I'm here if you work back far enough: They made what was by a long shot my favorite guild special-app only to me, and then told me over and over when applying for it 'we don't want to see you play a whiran', even though I was never one of those assholes who'd go around randomly pking or griefing with them, had played dozens, had over a year on staff, and had a history of playing responsibly with them. And to whoever was behind that, if you're reading this here: Fuck you a million times over. You ruined my fun then publicly mocked me. I hope you experience the same sort of rage you gave me. Because it will make your hands shake.

And this is yet another reason why staff shouldn't play the game. Want to play? Don't join staff. Just my opinion though and everybody knows it.

I find it insane that the Arm staff hasn't figured this out. Staff + playing = bad
