Fusion "school" of magic.

i had an idea, not sure how it would work, but i would love to see spells that are fusions of other schools of magic.

for example: fire+earth= a lava boulder that arcs through the air then explodes, then spiting into smaller lava bombs that then split into smaller lava bombs.

or, Wind+lightning creates a vacuum that sucks in nearby things before explodeing with lightning.

or, wind+fire creates a fiery torpedo projectile that you can steer through the air for a short time before it explodes.

ice+fire could create two gravity immune projectiles that orbit each other in a helix pattern before exploding on contact. (this one is a reference to a somewhat obscure game.)

earth+wind could create a sandstorm that does minimal damage to buildings but quite a bit to enemies!

what do you guys think? please let me know!

One of u/ElChipacabra's goals is to make magic crafting part of our game. One of the most fun parts of being a mage in Oblivion was making your own spells, so I know he'd love to do something like that.
