I actually relied quite a bit on magic in Soulblazer, when I first played it, to ensure that I killed as many enemies as I could before they could get within striking distance.
It also helps a lot whenever there might be enemies that are actually unreachable by sword - a lot like the Dark Friar in IoT, which I also sometimes used to clear the path ahead as I ran along behind it...
My first playthrough was after I had already owned IoT for about 10 years, so it looked and behaved rather more primitively than I was used to, but it was still fun. Terranigma blew me away though, by comparison to both its prequel games. ^_^

Actually I found the Light Arrow magic to be the most useful throughout the game. The fireball was okay, but as soon as I got Light Arrow, I used that exclusively almost to the end, where it was replaced by the Firebird....I mean, Phoenix magic.

Ooh, a no-XP hack sounds kind of fun - or at the least, a reduced-XP hack.

What, so with Soulblazer that would be the Sword of Life and nothing else? (for most of the game, except that parts that require specialist higher-level blades)
I didn't play IoG until much later, I really loved Soul Blazer the first time I played through it on rental... I'm pretty sure I rented it a dozen times before the store stopped carrying Super Nintendo games and sold off the copy, and I had no idea.
The last time I had played it, I was able to get to the end of the game without dying (Still couldn't beat Deathtoll, though- facing him at level 21 is like sticking your barehand into a wood shredder).

Why were you facing Deathtoll without the Phoenix magic (and the Soul Blade)? It's not even possible to causd 1HP dmg to him if you don't have them, talk about a massacre!

Deathtoll was easy to beat, the only reason i beat him on the 2nd attempt was because i was multitasjing, i was eating a sandwhich at the same time, it's hard to move and fight with only one hand...
