The entry point for Acid and the most hands-on spell in the school. The Thrower lobs jets that leave corrosive puddles wherever they land, ticking away at anything standing in them. The damage per tick is modest, but puddles stack with weapon elements and set up every Acid combo in the book.
Strategy
Lay puddles at chokepoints before enemies arrive, then fire through them with an elemental weapon for combo triggers. The Thrower's 30 second cooldown, the shortest in the school, means you can refresh puddle coverage more often than any other Acid spell. Great with an elemental weapon for sustained combo uptime.
Strengths
Lowest cooldown in the Acid school
Puddles stack with weapon elements for combo setups
Consistent corrosive uptime on grouped enemies
Weaknesses
Low individual hit damage - it's a setup tool, not a closer
Puddles require enemies to stand still to get full value
