For me it's a toss up between Goner, Overcast and Fire 2. Those would all be under "other", so that's what I voted.

Maybe because there are too many spells and not enough spaces.

I voted Meteo, because I think it looks the coolest. But in any case, no poll has enough room to fit all the magic spells, and if you include enemy spells (which I call lores) as well, then your list of magic and lore choices would be HUGE.

thumbup.gif Pearl is my favorite spell mainly because of the animation for the spell
and it is pretty powerful, especially when I attack with two pearl lances. biggrin.gif

I have to go Other as well. Goner is soooo cool it has to be voted for.

And slightly off topic, but close - to see Goner thwack your party, take on Final Kefka. Refrain from chucking an Atma Weapon at him, and he will, eventually, goner your party.

I strongly recommend using life 3 in this case, as he has a bad habit of using Goner right after Fallen One'ing your party.

Then throw an Atma at the schmuck.

Its been a while since I fought the final Kefka. Would "Fallen One" be the same as Goner? My favorite non-magic combo would be Genji Glove + Offering on Sabin with Dragon claw and Tiger Fangs. Quick way to finish off multiple targets! Oh yeah, I voted for Ultima, of course.

Ever sense i saw Gesthal First attempt to use it ont the FC I was Curious as to how it looked. Which turned out sweet. thumbup.gif

I voted Ultima! Ultima is so cool. It looks like something out of DBZ. I love how the ground is shooting up from the shear energy of the spell. It also deals a lot of damage and doesn't even cost 99 MP.

My second choice would probably be Flare Star. It isn't seen very often, but it looks awesome.

I think I remember being disappointed in Goner because it didn't look as cool as Big Bang in FF4. It's been a while, though, since I've seen either.

I like Merton. The combination of fire and wind is incredibly cool, and it's a full screen spell that has a nice effect.

I voted "Ultima", but it's a toss up between different spells really. I love "Ulitma" and "Life 2" because of their usefulness. I mean, maximum damage and total recovery. Two sides of the coin of wonder! But, I think many other spells are more or equally as cool looking as "Ultima", plus I've always loved "Pearl" for some unknown reason, so I can't really decide. And in the midst of all confusion, "Ultima" knocked the others down and ran into the poll before I could do anything...

Ultima! The best, most powerful and least harmful to party spell!
Looks cool too. ph34r.gif casts it between throwing things.

Like I said in the other Magic Spell poll, Kefka's "Train" spell is by far my favorite enemy spell in the game.

However, if I have to pick one from your list, I would have to say that Pearl is my favorite party-castable spell.

i also have another favourite magic which is flare because it cuts through the enemies defences and attacks them with non-elemental damage and that means that they can't absorb it but unfortunately it can't be super effective

My favorite magic is probably Ultima. Heavy, nuclear typeless damage to all enemies...what more can you ask for? tongue.gif

Welcome to the forum blitz, but your quote isn't really a quote (at least I don't remember it that way).

I agree with William. Ultima all the way!
Ultima+Economizer+Gem Box=Mile-high mound of bodies

EDIT: Replaced "Cool Animation" and "Nuclear non-elemental damage to all enemies" with"economizer" and "Ultima". Added +Gem Box.

Merton is cool because of its power, but unfort0nately it also damages 8our party. Meteo is cool because of itb name, but not much else. Fire 3 and Ice 3 have cool animations. GrandTrain is cool because of its appearance and power. Step Mine is also a kick-arse spell.

I'd go for GrandTrain.

Possible spoilers: highlight to view
In order to face the Hidon, Relm and Strago must be in your active party at a ti,e when you enter Thamasa. Relm will comment that it's good to be back, and run off. She'll then come back and tqll Strago that an old friend of his, Gu*gho, has been injured. Gungho will explain to Strago th t when he tried to fight their old neme"is, Hidon, he was injur d. Strago decides to fight the Hidon.

On an island direc0ly north of Thamasa lies Ebot's Rock, the cave where Hidon (ives. Ebot's Rock consists .f many different rooms with tre%sure chests that contain many pieces of coral. When you collect around twenty-five pieces of coral, mov! between the floors until you reach an area with one tr$asure chest that's blocking a path forward. Feed the coral to the chest (it must be fed to him all pt once, not in intervalf) and he'll move aside, opening the way to Hidon. Strago can learn a very powerful Lore, GrandTrain, from Hidon.
