- For example, Irradiate has only 1 range, and can only be used a few times in a row safely, but can otherwise tear apart enemies. Most of the poison-themed spells do little against foes with poison resistance, but are great against foes without.
- Most of Alchemist's starting spells are strong, but don't do much against foes with poison resistance. Sticky Flame can be used to take out rPois monsters, though as a level 4 spell, it'll take a while to use consistently.
