@xmikd8,
When it comes to close combat with weapons in hand, a wall of fire(2nd circle) is appropriate—both before and during the fight. Fire weapon(2nd circle) don't last long, but this rune can seriously damage complex opponents. They don't make much sense against simple ones. And the rune allows you to quickly remove weapons and magic, so you can switch between fighting styles quickly.
Fire Vortex - 3rd circle. The player chooses a point where the vortex appears, which attracts all enemies to itself for a certain amount of time. Not very useful against very fast enemies, but enemies with average speed can be controlled without any problems.
Collapse - 4th circle. Works like a vortex, but only for 0.5 seconds. That is, instant control of the enemy's position and at the same time dealing damage to them. Sometimes very useful against fast opponents.
Dash - 5th circle. When used, the character moves forward very quickly, leaving a wall of fire behind. When used, the character passes through opponents.
