Elemental Weapons Bonuses Return

It does when the skill has practical uses outside of 3rd job.

Explosion has uses outside of 3rd job?

*gets out notepad*

I use Explosion when Meteor's not on cooldown for its huge range but during training I'll always prefer Teleporting or using Big Bang. Besides, Explosion is only half weapon-speed based because of the small delay before the attack actually executes. The actual spell delay is unaffected by weapon speed. I'll push away any further claims that Nexon actually assigned mage weapon speeds an attack speed value based on Explosion with loud laughter.
