Editing School of Fire Magic

{{Fire spells||margin = 1em}}

'''School of Fire Magic''' is one of the four schools of magic. Others are [[School of Air Magic]], [[School of Earth Magic]] and [[School of Water Magic]]. School of Fire Magic is related to the [[secondary skill]] [[Fire Magic]], which allows heroes to cast Fire School spells more effectively and at reduced cost. The cost reduction is the same regardless of whether a hero holds the skill at basic, advanced, or expert level.

{{user commentary|
The most powerfull spell in the School of Fire Magic is [[Berserk]], which combined with expert [[Fire Magic]] can be cast on an area of three hex radius. It causes all affected creatures to use their attack on the nearest possible target, potentially forcing the enemy troops to kill each other. Additionally, [[Armageddon]] is a devastating spell, that can be used in a tactic called [[Dragogeddon]].

Other useful spells are [[Curse]] and [[Blind]]. Curse becomes a [[List of mass spells|mass spell]] at expert level of Fire Magic, and can significantly reduce enemy damage, saving the lives of your troops. Blind is an all-around spell that is beneficial in almost any situation. It works perfectly with [[Resurrection]] or [[Animate Dead]], as you can blind the only surviving enemy stack and raise your slain warriors. [[Bloodlust]] is also decent in fierce battles, making the majority of your troops (besides the ones who attack at distance) more effective.

Generally, the School of Fire Magic has only a few top-tier spells. However, [[Fire Wall]] is very good against overwhelming wandering troops, [[Fireball]] and [[Inferno_(spell)|Inferno]] are sometimes the mass damage spells you need, and [[Frenzy]] helps to wipe out strong stacks faster (altough you should use it very carefully, not allowing a strong enemy to attack your stack when it has [[Defense]] 0).

The most powerfull spell in the School of Fire Magic is [[Berserk]], which combined with expert [[Fire Magic]] can be cast on an area of three hex radius. It causes all affected creatures to use their attack to the nearest possible target. The only downside is, that with [[Pendant of Dispassion]], a [[List of artifacts sorted by class#Treasure artifacts|treasure]] class artifact, the enemy can protect all his troops from Berserk. Additionally, [[Armageddon]] is sometimes quite useful spell, that can be used in a tactic called [[Dragogeddon]]. Other useful spells are [[Curse]] and [[Blind]]. Curse becomes a [[List of mass spells|mass spell]] at expert level of Fire Magic, and can significantly reduce enemy damage. Blind on the other hand is an all-around spell that is beneficial for almost any situation.

Generally, the School of Fire Magic has only few useful spells. Berserk can change the course of battle, and blind is certainly one of the game's best [[hindering spells]]. However, the lack of [[buff]] spells, and limited scope of adventure spells make Fire Magic a dispensable skill.
