Land Mine is a terrible spell really, far too expensive, deals far too little damage and it lacks the stopping power of Quicksand. Expert fire magic increases the damage significantly, from 4 to 8 mines and 25 to 100 base damage. Even at only 1 power, an expert fire mage can output 880 damage with a single cast. This is very situational however, requiring the right levelup rolls and finding the spell early enough for it to still be useful despite its terrible scaling. |
