Purpose of Magic in Graal Kingdoms

[MasterNuke]

I want to know... what was the original intent for magic in Graal Kingdoms? I've been a magic user since the server came out. Now, after the development over these past years, I feel as if magic was never intended to be a main focus... but more of a support ability to assist where physique lacked.

After that said... discuss.

I guess magic is ment to for support. But with there being no working party system that's screwed.
Like brigid was ment to be used to support allies. But you can't do that these days.

I own plenty with magic and so do you and you know it.

So what if some of your spells aren't quite like they used to be? Some of them actually work better than they did before. You can still rock out with magic and be okay in fights. All in all, magic is better than it used to be. At least you can aim properly with it now, and a lot of spells have been fixed to actually work, and there's far less serverside lag.

I use magic to create food, thus eliminating the need for a wife

Anyways you are right, it is more support than full on combat unless you are really good like googi.

I must admit though magic is better but it also could be a lot better as well.
Its just the damn cast halting when you attempt to fire which annoys me.

I suppose it is good as it will not overshadow archery but does every spell have to be haulted by taking damage?
Only powerful spells should be halted on taking damage.

They should also allow you to charge up other little minor spells and unleash a powerful version of it.. i.e. magic bullet, if you charge and fire you say release a ball which does more damage? or flies faster?

Summon pet monster...charge that and you summon more in 1 go?
Course thats useless in pvp but alright for fighting mobs i suppose.

Getting hit when you cast magic is annoying but wiht out it how will people defend agenst magic other than magic resist and counterwall.

[Gothika]

With the new systems, it's who casts first wins..
With the speed being capped in battle. It's now impossible to run away from spells. Do you've just got to get hit.

Also if you run out of mana it really stinks then. I liked standing a chance
