Do lightning spells actually work for you? They burn through MP for me but they never seem to land unless I position the camera at a funny angle, then 50% of them seem to connect. I haven't bothered to upgrade anything, all my skills are still at level 1 and I just cycle through a few of them on mobs. The second Ice spell is really handy for the slowdown effect though, makes not getting hit way easier. And yes, mobs that do ranged attacks suck, if I spam fast enough (which can be kinda hard sometimes as my laptop sucks and the game is laggy as hell) they usually don't get attacks off, but I have to pop a potion after almost every hit or else I die. Mobs popping on my like to kill me almost instantly too, I might just give in and start buffing my health stat.
