The risk vs reward is well worth it.

If you cant handle the heat, stay outta the kitchen!
I don't mean it like that. It's annoying as a melee to fight while swimming. You move slow, you can't backup, you're constantly dealing with range issues. Ugh.

Additionally (this may not apply to this server as much) as a SK/Paladin, taking damage while swimming makes casting very difficult. If you can't get yourself backed into a corner, you probably won't cast very much. And then the mob goes around a corner to attack someone who sat down, and you've gotta swim out there, stop, find a floor to cast on (because you can't cast while sinking) in order to regain agro. Did I mention this is a headache?

I remember Kedge being my most hated zone to fight in in the game for this reason. That was until I did Plane of Water.
