Ancient Magic

[Punainen]

Ancient magic is useless. They cost 100mp (50 if you use the halving ability, but 50 is still a lot), do little more than your standard nuke, take forever to go off, IF they go off, and require that the mob stay in the same area for a long time. Even if they went off instantaneously, their damage is so little, that for half the MP you could have set off two nukes and done twice the damage. I used ancient magic just long enough to discover this fact and then promptly removed it from my bar and intend to never use it again.

Exact same story happened to me here. By the time the spell is casted and the effect takes place, I can use 3-4 tier II spells for many more damage.
