Magic or Summons?

If you will be made to choose which among these two, Magic or Summon, will your character be able to use, what will you choose?

Think about this:

Fire Spells vs. Ifrit, Salamander, Belias

Ice Spells vs. Shiva

Bio, Confuse, Berserk, etc. spells vs. Hades, Doomtrain, Cuchrain

Doomsday vs. Ark

Ultima, Meteor vs. Bahamut

I'll go with magic...they're more useful..though I won't lie...summons are much cooler:Pnatiko

Summons arent that useful...unlike magicNWA_31

id say summonGameslayer3

I'd always prefer magic over summons. In VII they were useful in boss fights but not in the general gameplay, VIII they were for the Junctioning but I did use them alot near the end in boss fights and I mean ALOT :)  in IX they were highly useful and probably the coolest looking (Bahamut without eyes!) as far as FMV's go, and in X they were used mainly as damage rags to not kill off my party and that was about the extent of the aeons existence.

I only used them in XII once just to see what they looked like and to open the door in Giruvegan (required). Other than that I stick to magic. Summons are cool and all and serve their purpose but for general gaming and leveling up I'd much prefer magic (less MP to use).

wait how can people say in ffx summones were used as def. i used them for act only never def. they were the best in ffxGameslayer3

I guess I agree with this too......

Summons if it's something serious and magics if not

Summons!!    Blizzard vs Shiva: Shiva absorbs the damage into life..... pawned.
