Magic Efficiency

Each spell that uses magic points has a damage-per-magic-point efficiency (Dmg/MP).

Here, 'damage' refers to the raw 'V value', as explained on the Magic Damage page. (The damage in this table does NOT factor in magic burst, enemy weakness, the player's INT, multiple-target damage reduction, affinity, weather-based equipment, etc. etc.)

In general, higher damage spells tend to have a higher Dmg/MP efficiency.
