High Elf mages actually placed considerable importance on practicality.
When they saw the seemingly powerful Artifact Hammer, their first reaction was envy.
With such abundant elemental power, the Artifact Hammer was clearly of considerable use to mages.
Although arcane power was the foundation of a mage's abilities,
most mages favored the two elemental branches of fire and frost.
The abundant elemental power in Doomhammer made all the mages present rather covetous.
