FFT's Dark Holy was just way too cool to pass up for anything else. It was the one spell I always wanted.

Ultima/Holy/Flare/Meteor from FFVIII was pretty impressive looking. I also liked uh...can't think of the summon's name (its a bull). Anyway, Tetra Disaster is kind of cool looking.

I liked Ultima in FFVIII.

Possible spoilers: highlight to view
I loved the summon sequence in FFIX. You know the one involving Eiko's Moogle when he, Zorn and Thorn dies. Very sad as well.


Edit
I loved that part of the game as well.

I loved the Grand Cross animation from FF5. It was cool seeing the orbs rotate around the screen with all of that flashy effects. FFVII's Super Nova was pretty childish (destroying all planets but doesn't even deal 9999 damage to all characters_ tongue.gif

My personal favorite is Pearl from FFVI, I assume that would be considered a holy spell...I just love the whole background, sound effects, everything. I alos like the version that is Lv ? Pearl, with just the whit fireball falling from the heavens..I just love pearl!

Summons: Neo Bahamut from FFVII and Quazecotl-Eden from FFVIII

Black magic: FLARE from FFV. too classic but cool smile.gif
White magic: Holy from FFV. too classic but cool smile.gif
Blue magic/enemy skill: Big Guard/Big guardian. especially Big Guard from FFVII kicks ass.

i always thought Eden from FF8 was cool, an i also thought it was quite amusing using it on bite bugs

but i felt like the gf's made FF8 somewhat easy as they didn't even need MP and had unlimited usage

In the end, it boils down to two simple choices. Either you do or you don't.

I'm gonna have to say Meteo from Final Fantasy IV. Not to mention that spell was badass back in the day...you were like OMFG I got Meteo it's on. And the spell sound is cool as well. thumbup.gif

Flare and Pearl were pretty intense in FFVI.. Ultima was just too long and it had the poopiest sound effect... "zooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!ZING!! FASCHING!" ... It gets... old after awhile..
I thought FFVII's Odin thing was pretty cool as well.

I always liked Bahamut ZERO and the choco/mog summons from FFVII. i thought the holy spell was sweet in FFIV as well as meteor.

I have to say the coolest spells in the entire series are the summons and the ultimate white and black magic spells: Holy and Ultima. FF6 was the original Ultima (as far as I know) and it's still the coolest looking. Holy is awesome in all of the games it appears in. Also, the mighty Apocalypse from FF8 was absolutely phenomenal! It just had "DESTRUCTION!!!!" written all over it! pinch.gif mad.gif

Veiling the moon with the light of eternity
it brings another promise to mother earth

Not counting summons:
Bolt-3 from FFIV. I'm old-school.

Counting summons:
FF7 Bahamut or FFX Atma. Or atima, or whatever the heck he was called. It was this creature in chains.

Id have to say its a tie between Northern Cross and Ulitma from FFT. After that its any summon from FFT and then the Dia spells from FF1 (sure they only hurt undead but it looks cool! happy.gif )

I'm really surprised no one has mentioned Nova from X. Considering most of the spells from X suck, in my opinion, that one is the best looking in the series to me. In terms of sound, FFT had the best for watching them on surround sound (especially Shiva!). My favorite enemy spell is Flare Star from IX and summon would have to be Alexander from VIII. There's so many awesome looking spells, so I HAVE to mention Quezacotl (VIII), Flare (IX), and any of the full strength spells from Chronicles on Gamecube.

I've never heard of a spell called Ozone in FF6! It's possible you mean X-Zone, which is what I would say! I like how you can tell during the spell if somebody is being sucked into the X-Zone or not!

Hey that could be a cool spell though...Ozone? lol.

"Locke casts O-Zone on Leafer"

-A greenhouse comes plummeting down on the leafer, leaving only grass.-
For winning by use of O-Zone? You win a hybrid civic.

That's what I'm talking about.

But in all seriousness; I just beat FFIV for the GBA and I don't like what they did with the Meteo'r' spell. I like how it used to make the *peeu peeu peeu* sound...and the colors were cooler in the old one as well wink.gif

I've always thought that Holy and Meteor have been amazing in any Final Fantasy they are featured in, and even more so in VII's FMVs.
