Recently finished the Master Destruction spell quest and have been trying to use Blizzard. At this point though it kills me way faster than it does anything else, and I'm wondering if this is working as intended or it's a bug? I'm not talking about the long casting time and getting killed in the process of casting it. Once I cast the Blizzard it damages me like crazy, so much to the point that it's useless for me to cast. I've seen YouTube videos of people casting it and it NOT damaging them but I want to make sure that is correct.
I'm not looking to start a whole thread about why Blizzard isn't Magika cost effective vs other spells, etc. - Just want to see if others out there have their Blizzard spell destroy them or if I'm experiencing a bug. Thanks in advance!
