[Ragnarok-X]

Then again the best Air spells are mostly low level, with wind guide and Arrow Fend level 2/3

I myself can NEVER play without Nature, its really great. Just forge a few cauldrons. Or a few whips of command. Or maybe The Beckoning ? Oh, why not Call of the Wild...

dang it, i ALWAYS get nature, i have admit its mostly because of food support, i HATE to see starving and or ill units. ^^

I can play really good without Astral, to be honest i only get Astral to cast Acashic Record, i dont see another reason for astral magic...Most strong astral spells are high level, at least rituals.
Any while its easy to get high level mages with air, nature, fire or whatever is ALMOST impossible to get a high level astral mage, unless you designed him yourself as your pretender. Each magic way has its caster summons, but the only way for astral is that serpent guy with 3 nature and 3 astral, and that isnt even an astral summon.

definitly the way you play ^^
