		+	===Party===
		+	While mages can solo fine, mages in parties can use their spells without having to run away and not having to worry about their health as much.

-	The idea is the use MM1 as much as possible, using Magic Blast and Fire Bolt whenever possible, and having Lightning Bolt and Ice Bolt as the 2 filler spells. I suggest using level 1 spells for the bolts, since by the time you can use Magic Blast, the additional damage from the level 8 spells pales in comparison to the total damage with a +9 weapon. The SP consumption is low. Damage output is consistent and periodic. Only Magic Blast has a cast time attached to it, but the damage return for it is pretty good.	+	The idea is the use MM1 as much as possible, using Magic Blast and Fire Bolt whenever possible, and having Lightning Bolt and Ice Bolt as the 2 filler spells.

I suggest you use Fire Bolt (Max) because by the time you finish your MB-MM-IceB-MB-MM-LB-MM-MB-MM combo your monster would be dead or your FB Max would be cooled)
