I just notices the new Transmogrification settings on attacks... does this mean we can make Toad effects now?

That works so well with what I want to do with Morpher/Shaman that I have no words left ^^

It looks really odd to me that you have the Final Fantasy-ish Cure/Cura/Curaga in there along with all these other spells that don't sound like Final Fantasy magic names at all. I know healing spell names are kinda hard to come up with sometimes, since the higher-level ones all basically do the same thing but better... but it just looks weird to have one set of spells copy Final Fantasy while none of the others do.
Well, I guess Osmose is also borrowing a Final Fantasy spell name, but that doesn't stick out nearly as much as the something/somethingra/somethingaga pattern.

I'm also kind of confused about how Macerush and Arrow Rush are resisted by WIL rather than DEF, while the bubble spells are the opposite. Just seems like it would make more sense the other way around (physical defense vs. bashing/stabbing attacks, magic defense vs. more elemental-based stuff.)

Foo/Foora/Fooraga: It sounds better than Cure/Big Cure/Power Cure, and enough people are familiar with the FF naming pattern to know right off the bat that Foora is a more powerful version of Foo.

Osmose: I call it that in all my game ideas.

Macerush: It's already a weaker spell from relying on the attack stat of the caster rather than the magic stat, and I wanted a reason for people to use the Fire-element buff "Temper". It's mostly balance.

Bubbler: Counterintuitive, yes, but Water-weak enemies generally have really good magic resistance in other games I've played. Besides, being hit with a five-inch ball of water that's moving at 30 MPH isn't something you can just will away Wink

Arrow Rush: The only other Master Arcane spells that go Magic versus Will are the Air Element spells, Starburst and Yellow Fang. It's balance again.

Speaking of Temper... that's the only spell name that bugged me. Because if you read it as a verb (as I do every single time), it means pretty much the exact opposite of what that spell does. Why not Anger or Enrage or something?

I may rename the Basic buffs and Expert Debuffs, I don't really like the names for most of them either.
