Hey guys. I'm just wondering but are the advanced magic spells crystals (fireball, ice spear, thunder crystals) as strong as the original spells themselves now ever since the update? Like if we were to have rank 1 mana crystallization and alchemy mastery, would the alchemy version of the spells be equal in power to the original spells at rank 1 themselves? o.o

They are weaker because they don't add your magic attack to the damage.

Those magic crystals were useless to begin with.

Mana Crystal is adventage in casting time only. You only have to cast the mana crystal at 1 cast time + mana crystallization rank and you have all 5 cast and ready to roll.
But damage is for mid-game only. For End-game these mana crystal are just for fun.

The ice spear crystals have the advantage of a non-decaying explosion damage iirc

When ice spear finishes an enemy, anything nearby will get hit by the explosion and freeze/take damage. This can repeat until it cant chain anymore monsters, but it gets weaker with each chain. The crystals dont have this problem, they do full damage every chain.
Also the ice spear crystals are glitched atm iirc. The explosion doesnt chain to other enemies.

Might be mistaken, but I believe alchemy versions of Ice Spear no longer chain at all.

I also noted that too.
After 20 times of attacking monsters with Ice spear mana crystals, after explosion there is no chain at all.
Ps. I also noted that mana crystals consume cylinder's durability more then normal alchemy skills.
