new spells
Ark - in terms of new spells...depending on what is in this red leather dragon scale spell book....when cyst gets back to Hanten Ganbaru he will look to backfill some older lower level spells:
see invisibility, gust of wind, grease, rope trick, scrying, evard's black tentacles, monster summoning IV, stoneskin, comprehend languages, phantasmal killer.......a few 5th's wouldn't hurt......baleful polymorph...cloudkill...wall of force..summon monster V...all good. It is nice to have a big fat spell book but at the end of the day you still only have X number of slots and I find myself wishing I had cued up something different every day...orb of sonic would have been perfect vs that caraytid column....a few lightning bolts would have nice vs the dire wolves....you try to prepare a little bit of this trying to anticipate almost anything....and you wind up coming close to having something suitable for a lot of encounters....but with little spell depth.
