Battle Design Options

Okay, so we have a sort of reactive system, where enemies try to guess moves and play strategically (according to their type, more strategically as the game goes on). And we have a counterspell system. And we have an elements system:

Melee
Ranged
(Some things like ghosts are completely immune to both physical, and flying things are probably immune to melee and earth)
Fire
Water
Thunder
Ice
Earth
Air
Light
Dark
(At least)

There should also be all kinds of strategies for bosses, including some puzzle bosses. Ummm let's see... VX has TP, but I think you can turn it off, at least in ACE. Do we want TP system?

These are all awesome ideas. If we get the concept of height into the battle then a lot of things will be made simpler.
(Perhaps it would open up a new way through the castle, you can skip half the puzzle by attacking from the balcony, the fight will still be hard but you will be at an advantage)

In this case we'll have to make it a challenge to get onto the balcony then
