Air controlling any gaseous substance and water any liquid would have been cool. By the way can waterbenders bend steam? Or change phase from ive to water to steam?
Comment on Why is electricity not part of the classical alchemical elements? (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water)
Majorllama@lemmy.world 2 days agoThe problem is heat energy/fire would kinda get all the cool shit. Like lava was given to the earth benders in LoK and I always felt that didn’t make as much sense as fire benders having access to it.
Air, water and earth all just have the one thing that really makes much sense. Water can do ice and stuff since that’s just a phase change for the element they control but what do earth and air get?

In the desert episode Aange did water bend a cloud into a bottle or something, right? I always thought that was water bending. There’s also this mist that they make in this White Lady episode, I thought that was also Katara?

Yeah like another comment said there is evidence of air benders collecting moisture from a cloud so I don’t really know. Then again maybe he was water bending? He did know how to water bend by that episode.

Maybe the ability to separate the nitrogen/oxygen/carbon dioxide and direct them? That would be cool and could make up for it. Just straight suffocate someone with the air around them?

They actually show that at some point.
