So, I was wondering if you guys think sharpened blade will be necessary to progress in future worlds. I myself never got the spell and seem to do just fine without it, mostly due to my 92 percent damage. Do you guys think the spell is necessary and how often do you use it?

well, my thoughts (PvE-wise) are that is gives you the best boosting combination. Your primary school's blade packs the most punch, and with sharpened blade, it gets even better. While stacking pips for a devastating attack, for zero pips, you're boosting the heck out of yourself and no longer have a real need for Elemental/Spirit Blade
A blade that has been enhanced with Sharpened Blade "stacks" with a blade that has not. So you could, for example, have the benefits of both a 40% Stormblade and a 30% Stormblade on a single outgoing spell. I think it is worth it, especially since many attacks these days use high amounts of pips. You've got plenty of turns to place the two blades on yourself, and it makes your next attack that much more devastating.
I think they are about as useful as the regular Sun spell damage enhancements, which pretty much everyone uses. They may not be absolutely necessary, but if you don't use them you will be hitting for a lot less than you could be.
agree with dayerider this spell is very useful and i think especially for a storm it will help a lot, because then you stack stormblade and sharpened version (30% & 40%) plus the elemental blades (35% & 45%) apply this tooooo....... wild bolt? for 1000 = 3,563: pretty good damage.

yeah, what I was doing for a while was Sharpened Dark Pact, Sharpened Deathblade, Deathblade, Item Deathblade, Colossal, Scarecrow = dead enemies and full health I have since stopped using Dark Pact (because it made the battle just too long).
Also, Sharpened blade works wonders for soloing Loremaster with all of their dampening spell effects
My first two wizards (balance and death) use them all the time~ it's especially handy for Balance, as we have fewer buffs available than the other schools and was in dire need of an extra boost.
My Storm wizard is in Azteca~ she has 89% damage, and I will still probably get her the sharpened blade. I wonder if I can use it on Supercharge...
Potent Trap is awesome, too. At this point, you can't blade against Myth anyway... May as well!
