Poll Question:
Favorite spell class.

Favorite creature, favorite level, favorite spell, favorite town.  All these have been covered.  Now it's time to think about what spell class is superior to all others.

So what do you all think?

No, I don't think implosion is earth... I remember it being less mana when I have an expert air magic! Someone correct me if I'm wrong!

ARMAGEDDON!!!

Yeah but it's good for a suicide battle and if all your troops are immune to magic like Black Dragon.

Also it's interesting that a magic arrow is related to all four spell classes!

FIRE...

I vote for Fire although until recently I was an Air fan (cause of the lightning of course).But I've played a game some days ago and I was Ekpert Fire and had the Orb of Fire(or whatever the name is = 50% more damage for fire spells)and in this conditions I've tried the Inferno spell...WHAT A BLAST !!! An incredible, huge damage and it hits 4 stacks at the same time...and having Expert Fire, the Inferno spell comes very cheap...

Earth, Water/Air, Fire

Earth is the most critical in a game for me, Town portal is not nearly as useful without it and ressurection is useless without it, It also increases damage from Implo and Meteor, 2nd in my book is a tie between air and water, I used to be air 2nd, but the mass effect for bless, prayer, clone and more importantly cure and dispel are so good.  Air is critical not to me for the damage of lightning spells but for maps that allow dim door and fly.  Fire is good for exp bezerk blind and curse but is 4th in my rankings

Naturally the answer has to be...

EARTH!! all in all i think earth is the most beneficial book to master at expert level...allmost needless to say, but then:slow, shield, anti magic, meteor shower, ressurection, town portal and of cause the good ole implotion!
All scools of magic have powerful components, but i for one find Earth to be the most effective!

however...without air or water or fire...would there be earth??

Earth.

Start out with Slow,

Move up to Meteor Shower,

Huge leap to Town Portal(consensus best spell) and Resurrection,

End up at Implosion(massive direct damage).

Earth has great variety of spells that can give yoyu great movement, direct damge, healing and effective first level mass spells.

My vote

Most useful: Earth
- slow, view earth, resurrection, animate dead and town portal !!

Then it comes to Air
- haste (less useful than slow), view air (nearly as useful as view earth or even more useful in some cases), DD, fly.

In every game, I will try to develop expert air and expert earth asap. With expert view air and earth which are two common spells, you already know the map and these adventure spells CANNOT be countered !!!

Then I will pick up fire for fun: my favorite is casting berserk on several stacks of hordes of mighty gorgons and seeing their death gazes pop up again and again.....

Oooop, my favorite is AIR coz I'm thunderknight.

Earth!

I think earth is best, without doubt. There are so many useful earth spells compared to other spell classes: Slow, Animate Dead/Resurrection, Anti-Magic, Meteor Shower, Town Portal and of course Implosion.

Second best: Air, mainly because of Haste, View Air, Chain Lightning, Dimension Door and Fly.

Fire is right behind, however, with Curse, Blind, Berserk, Armageddon and Sacrifice.

Water has some useful low level spells (Bless, Cure, Teleport) but no very good high level spells; Clone and Prayer are the most useful.

Then again...

As I recall this thread beggins with "Favorite...". I agree that the Earth class is really the most eficient one (with all the shields, resurection, town portal and implosion) but despite all that I enjoy very much the kicks of the Fire class wich makes your adversary go crazy: Blind, Berserk, Armaggedon, Inferno, Frenzy etc.

Depends on town, when im castle (which i usually am) i prefer earth because of the ability to cast slow on opp, TP where id like, resurrect and cast anti magic on my AA.
I also like water because the ability of mass bless/cure and to be able to clone my AA.

But for a town like stronghold id take air magic because mass haste with them and a hero like Hack is a killer

These two towns will be enough for now

Earth is best school around. But my favourite is Water. I love to clone several Arch Angels and lots of Mighty Gorgons once in a while. Bless is also a great spell (in most cases more effective than Bloodlust, Stoneskin, Weakness or even Shield).
