I love magic systems in games that feel impactful, and especially love them if the mechanic is unique and different.

What are your favorites?

Morrowind was amazingly versatile. You could combine any effect, and they weren't any safety mechanisms. Want to jump 2000 ft in the air? Don't forget your feather fall spell. Hundreds of ways to kill or die amusingly. My old husk of a brain is having trouble remembering, but maybe some others have a fond memory of their best spell or enchanted item combos.

AOE lockpick was always fun. Walk into a building, fire it off. Hey, no locked doors.
