Generally in RPGs I find that fire spells are better against groups, whereas lightning spells do more individual damage. That said, the type of monsters being thrown at you generally dictates your magic policy. If you're entering the EPONYMOUS GLACIER MOUNTAIN REGION OF FROSTY DOOM you'd be a muppet not to take fire spells, right?
Status spells are also pretty pointless. Most fights don't last long enough for it to be worth poisoning the enemy and those that do, boss fights generally, the enemy is immune to status changes. In fact, the only rpg I've played where you need to put even the slightest bit of thought into your spell selection is Shin Megami Tensei, where picking the right spells often means the difference between making it to the next save point or not. In real life? I'd go for thunder based magic and dress like Raiden off of Mortal Kombat (The game mind you, not Christopher Lambert). Jam it back in, in the dark.  |
