Exit

Exit was überkool :D It was just so great to teleport all your enemies out of the battle :D

In terms of usefulness I'd go for Restore. But there were many really useful black magic spells in the game too. Compare to almost any other FF and I rarely even use the black mages.

I'd say

Restore.

You'd never get anywhere without basic heal spells :P

Comet

I've always liked Comet linked with Quadra Magic, hell, link MP Turbo and cast Comet 2 with attached Quadra Magic and W-Magic and it gives Knights of Round a run for it's money.

hah haah ha!

any thoughts of "ultima being the best spell..." "ultima rulez..." and such, i just wanna say SCREW THESE PEOPLE! contain and restore-all are the best decisions to make, no doubt.

Crap, didn't see that

Stupid impulsive me, if I had seen shield I would have chosen it without a second thought. I've long had a love affair with that particular materia, it's by far the strongest defensive manuever I've seen in ANY game imaginable. Pity I already voted for Contain before I saw Shield. Why did Contain have to start with a C and thus be sightable before Shield?

Times 4

Ultima is FAR too bland. Yes it does lots of damage but it doesn't do FUN damage. Yes Quadra magic and double magic are both nice on Ultima, but hey work just as well on Contain. Plus contain has Freeze at level 1, Ultima has nothing until level 2. Lets not forget that Contain can take advantage of weaknesses and with 4 of 8 elements assembled in contain, and that Contain is one of only 2 sources of wind in the entire game, and that wind is the weakness of over 1 in 4 enemies, and that Flare has damage comparable to ultima. Consider these points next you're setting up your Materia.

Ultima

Hmm i like it because it's got the best real damage/viewing time ratio.
let's face it... after watching excessive graphics like "knights of the round" for the 100s time just gets boring!
Ultima has a short graphic, does tons of damage, works nice with hp/mp drain materia (forgot the name) and everyhting is nice and green :p

Ultima...

Ultima's an okay spell, but a disgrace compared to what it did in FF VI. THAT was great. This is MUCH weaker.

Just the basics

Ultima is all nice and all, but how far would you get without the bog standard restore all combo.

people just dom't get it

why ultima? it's nonelemental and all, but if you wnat do deal fire damage? want to deal ice, wind, earth, and all this really brutal anyway? contain is the BEST materia, giving special effects aside of the damage. what does ultima other than a deal of damage? huh? WHAT?

big in the mouth, small on the earth.

magic fave

Gotta love that time magic. Easily overlooked, yet highly effective.

Contain is the best!

Why? I will tell.

Simply link Contain with Added Effect and you have a killing machiene! Give this combo to your weakest fighter and they will become strong!

With a chance to instant-kill, paralyze, & confuse, it's great to bail you out of rough spots!

sorry, folks.

i forgot to say, ultima doesn't suck. only no one i know bother to train it.

why not barrier, when i think about it? oh yeah, because enemyskill can learn Big guard, easily overtaking Wall.

contain contains destruction!

i vote for contain, because it's such a wide-spread materia. for instance, if ya don't stock up on birg wings, wind damage is quite rare without the summons choco/mog and typhon. but with both paralysis, confusion and petrify, as well as MASSIVE damage, contain simply rules. and better fire magic than flare doesn't exist.
