OK, I've opened this topic to see whaddaya think about which is the best magic in ff serial. I don't know was it already posted, if it is then let admins erase it before it becomes very popular My list goes on like this:
magic:

ultima-ff8,ff7
flare-ff9
I'll finish it when I remember, I'm busy now

summons/GF's/aeons:
anima-ffx
maybe ixion from ffx, I'll thiink about this...
and so on... I'll finish it later

now let's hear your opinion

 

[Cid Highwind]

FF3: Bahamut works great

FF5: Bahamut again IIRC
FF7: The standard Bahamut can be strong enough, the other's take longer to summon
FF8: I prefer Bahamut over Eden, because I never liked the long time it took to show eden....
As for magic: I didn't use much magic, but Meltdown works great against certain enemies (the giant armor creatures)

I don't know much about the other parts of the series.

In every game the Flare and Ultima magic does most damage.

FF7 KoTR is stronger altho i cant remember it takes longer to summon tho
FF8 Eden is strongest.. and depending on how often u summon it the speed wil increase.
FFX anima as aeon, altho magnus sister pasado for low armor creature does more dmg than anima.
(btw FFX bahamut really looks stupid ! what was square thinking :rant: )

and for magic.. beats me really cant remember.. meteor/flare/ultima always been the most powerful spells.

About Eden I meant the animation takes way too long. Especially since on my PC version the framrate dropped a lot as well....
The same goes for the animation of KOTR.

 

[deamonhunter]

r we talking about how it looks or how much damage it takes

but in my opinion bahamut always rocks
i mean whats cooler than the god of dragons
but anima in FFX was also very cool

 

[Cid Highwind]

I think it's about how powerful it is, or at least which one you prefer to use. And I don't like KOTR because it takes too long. And it kills Sephiroth too easily as well He's already an easy to beat wuss.

 

[ka0s]

I liked Bahamut from all the games, but a few others that stood out were Tiamat, KotR, and Anima.
As for spells, I was always partial to Demi

 

[Ipswitch]

FF9's summons sucked ass and so did most of the magic. I mean, the best way to do damage in that game was with Steiner with Shock or Climhazzard. Ark, the supposed best summon, did maybe 5000 and Flare around 8000. I had vivi pretty tricked out in terms of magic-enhancing gear as well. But alright, Ark and flare (and ultima, but that's not a spell you're allowed to use) looked pretty awesome, as did some of the spells used by Necron.

 

[Kaiser Sigma]

I'm not getting this thread's topic... are you asking which summons looked the best or which ones were the most useful? To answer both...
Most useful summons:
FFIV: Bahamut
FFV: Bahamut
FFVI: Crusader
FFVII: Knights of the Round
FFVIII: Eden
FFIX: Ark / Madeen

Best Looking Summons:
FFIV: Bahamut / Leviathan
FFV: Bahamut
FFVI: Bahamut / Crusader
FFVII: Bahamut Zero
FFVIII: Eden
FFIX: Ark

 

[Exodus]

the best one is FF7's chocobo summon. nothing like a childish AND weak summon.

 

[Cid Highwind]

The Fat Chocobo of FF7 is GREAT

I never saw it much... about 2 or 3 times out of hundreds of hours gameplay

 

[Ali]

Shiva all the way,
I made her one strong chick in FFX.

 

[CD]

Ultima's always the best, that's why it's called ****ing Ultima. It gets outshined by special attacks and summons in later FFs tho..

 

[Exodus]

Ultima's always nice since it takes so much less time to cast than summons. And with an easy series like FF, thats what it really all comes down to: speed.

 

[Razor Blade]

I always loved Ifrit from FFVIII. First time I saw it my mouth dropped!

 

[aerith099]

Carbuncle!
Pretty much useless, but oh-so-cute!

 

[Guyver2K6]

ff9's BAHAMUT!!! HE RULED ALL ASSS!!!!

 

[CD]

Yes, ruling "all ass" is a good thing.

 

[RF]

Hella ifrit from ff8

 

[industrian]

FFX's Bahamut when i got him to be able to do 500,000 damage with one punch = good.
