    X-Zone, Doom and Break were actually different spells. X-Zone obliterates several monsters, Doom kills one, and Break petrifies one.

    Merton was quite useful with the appropriate fire-absorbing equipment.

    And as for missing spells, Nuke.

    I don't think Piggy was used again since FFIV, was it?

    I miss Piggy.

    (Not to be confused with Miss Piggy, of Muppets fame.)

    Imp stopped after VI. Actually I think it was only in VI. I miss seeing those imps in the characters status screen....
    Apocilypse from VIII and Doomsday from IX were one-off magics aswell, never to return....yet.

    Let's see, ZAP! and BANE (two spells doing the same thing) from FFI (I believe that was their names) became X-zone, so that repeated once, plus in like FFII Warp or whatever acted in the same manner when used in battle. IF you want useless, XXXX was the exact same thing as RUB, literally. Both became one spell... Doom
    BRAK also did the same thing in this game, but became a stone status in later games.

    Nuke is also known as Flare, which reappears in numerous FF games.

    AND DON'T trash talk Merton, that was the best spell in the game. Equip fire absorb, and just use Merton, awesome....

    Imp was a summon in some of the earlier FF games, not sure which ones though, been awhile and I didn't really keep track.

    No-one say Life-3 becacuse that became auto-life in some games.

    Temper/TMPR increased attack and I believe there are other spells that do that.

    WE must take note, most of the spells that "dissapeared" either were pretty useless or just changed names.

    All I can think of, are the Harm spells....

    The lovely Dia, although in FFVII you needed Cure-ALL to get the same effect.
    My Cure spell brings all the boys to the yard,
    And they're like: "It's better than yours."
    Damn right, it's better than yours!
    I could Heal you, but I have to charge.

    I assume you mean HEAL from FFI which cured all characters. Well let's see, in FFII you can have cure target all, in FFIII you can as well... FFIV, FFV, and FFVI you can as well, you just hit L or R I believe, I know in FFVI you can, been awhile since IV or V.

    SO yeah, there was no spell named that, but the cure spells could be used in that manner.

    Actually, Dia is the Origins version of HARM.

    HEAL is a totally different spell.

    Ah, I didn't know Dia was originally named HARM, but yeah.

    Cure/All is needed to target at groups on undead enemies to damage them, where as Dia targeted all enemies anyway - even if it did only damage the undead ones.

    At least it wouldn't end up curing the other monsters in the group...!
