Yes...I do think Ulm and Abyssia are meant to be played with eye-enhanced mages. That's how I always play them. Try that if you haven't and vive la difference!

No, I don't think they were *meant* to be weak and unbalanced *unless* you succeed in finding indy/mercs Air mages ..
I agree that they *perform better* this way, but that's very different.
What happens is that Fire and Earth magic are underpowered to their frequent (crappy) precision-based combat damage spells, and that it is counterbalanced if/when you get Air items.
