Fireburst

Required Level: Fire Magic 2

Upgrades: N/A

Evaluation: Basic early-game offensive spell. Low Energy cost and moderate damage. Effective until Firebolt replaces it later on.

Enchant Fire Arrow

Required Level: Fire Magic 7

Upgrades: N/A

Evaluation: Enchants any arrows or quarrels you place in the Mage's hands. Fire damage is mostly all-purpose, but ineffective against Uggardians, who will likely be a significant target for your ranged attacks in the mid-to-late game.

Fireball

Required Level: Fire Magic 13

Upgrades: Greater Fireball (Fire Magic 24)

Evaluation: Deals significant damage to distant targets. Fire damage is very effective against most enemies, except Uggardians. When upgraded and combined with Zhandul's Orb, Fireball becomes the most damaging spell in the game.

Fire Shield

Required Level: Fire Magic 16

Upgrades: N/A

Evaluation: Provides +35 Resist Fire. A high Resist Fire will make your party almost invulnerable when dealing with Uggardians. However, Fire damage is otherwise fairly uncommon, and many items improve Resist Fire compared to the other magic schools.
