Most Cost-Effective Spells

[ShadeOfWar]

Now this is a very experimental poll. It might also be astoundingly stupid. Please let me know if that is the case.

 

In all seriousness. (Haha, ha)

 

There might also be one or two flaws with the spell list. Yaaaawwwwwnnnnn I am flat tired...

It is very nice. It is not the worst poll i have seen either. I have seen other members, such as that Archmag Micel, and Marleny who has made much worse.

Why, thank you!

 

 

P.S. Why is Group Heal getting so little votes? It is the best healing craft spell without a shadow of doubt.

The most cost-effective spell depends on the situation. If you are an agent, you'll get more benefit from attack spells, but if you are a Shaper with lots of creations, you'll get more benefit from blessing spells. If you are far from a town, you'll need healing spells, but if you are right next to a town, just running into town is cheaper. Even which attack spell to use depends on how much damage you need to do and whether you are fighting a single enemy or multiple enemies. And I haven't even mentioned spell levels and skill levels.

i have to agree, it is the most usefull, except for battle roar,{it heals and blesses every friendly character around you}

When playing as a lone Agent, Strong Daze is the most useful, and it doesn't cost much energy. I can use it as often as I want without worrying about how much energy it's using up.

 

But when traveling with a large group—a Shaper with multiple creations and a few tag-alongs—then group-blessing or -healing spells are the most efficient.

Strong daze is so good that even Guardians should get them.

[Contra]

Useful, yes, but is it COST-EFFICIENT? Does the input of Essence+Energy equal the damage and/or effect?

Fireball is by far the most cost efficient, since it does most damage compared to the petty 4 energy it takes to cast.

Casting any spell: Some energy and/or essence

Some things energy and essence can't buy. For everything else, there's Strong Daze.

I found Fireball most cost effective, and Strong Daze is very helpful. I was using Unlock constantly, as Living Tools are worth their weight in gold.

[Vicheron]

You don't get any experience from opening doors and levers with unlock, do you?

Edit: No EX for using Unlock, but you might gain some from picking the lock.
