But the downside is that some fight doesn't have elevation at all.
Yeah! Like... and... What battles don't have high ground?
I know some have ridiculous requirements to obtain the high ground. (Source Hounds and Hound Master)
OHH! The Ice Dragon! That is one battle where there is no high ground whatsoever. Then there are the bugs but high ground and damage doesn't benefit those battles.
Given that less than halfway through the game you will have maxed out Ranged attack... I think a skill that is useful in 80-90% of all battles isn't too too bad. That is more often then Fire will prove useful.
