The interactions are decent enough since I already have Ash (oops) and Explosion allows me to petrify immediately after, plus Magma does 40% extra on petrified targets. I think Fire does 20% more but can also petrify charred people (Magma cannot) and does 20% more out of that. In all honesty it seems redundant if Ash already does it and Magma has higher damage plus better clash rates and more versatility. Fire has good DOT and is faster, however I could also go for Plasma at that point since it’s faster, has better clash rates.
I’m leaning into Magma, but what do you guys think? There could be more effective combos entirely, I’m open to it.
As a magma user I can verify that it’s a pretty damn good magic. Is it the best? No, but it’s good. I’ve found two neat features using it. First is the ability to somewhat counter Ink/Water clashes. When you do them you form a block of cooled magma in front of you. This could work as a shield in your favor. Another thing I noticed is sometimes I inflict the bleeding status effect. This isn’t consistent but it’s something I notice. I like magma for it’s high damage and only it’s blast is hard to land, it’s beam and explosions land just as easily as any other magic. I’ve only been in one real fight to date, it was a 2 v 1 (me being the 1) and I didn’t land a single blast.
Overall I really recommend Magma. It’s only weakness is it’s slowness and that can be almost completely negated with the use of beams and explosions. I personally don’t think I’ll get 3 elemental magics but I am looking to adopt Explosion as my second magic. Honestly I only want Apocalypse Bringer as a magic. It’s name alone sounds badass and it’s description seems up my alley.
