Summary0008919: "Bouncing" projectile type spell idea.
DescriptionKinda surprised there isnt already one like this. But the idea for this spell would be one that simply bounces offa walls.... something like the blue laser weapon in R-Type. It could even be fired in the same way perhaps.... where it's always at a 45-degree angle, fires 1 or 2 shots.

The purpose of this spell would mostly be for use in buildings, the idea being that you could bounce this around corners, to allow you to attack enemies that otherwise would likely hit you the moment you go around the corner, like the fast-firing explosion espers, or stuff like that.

Not sure what kind of element this would be; something other than Earth, since Earth already has way more attack spells than other elements. This spell would be not particularly damaging.

Fire perhaps? Fire still only has one ranged spell, and this kind of reminds me of fireballs in the classic Mario games.

The range shouldn't be too long though. Otherwise, it would be too easy to hit enemies in positions where they can't fight back.

I definately agree with this one. More spell diversity is good nomatter what :)

Reflection (for me at least) always fits in Light, though giving it to Fire as well wouldn't be objectionable. (Two spell types, in other words.) Maybe differ them in "bounciness" so that Light bounces higher but Fire travels further (high bounces versus long bounces)?
