Beyond that - it depends on the magus, but generally combat-mages have defensive and buffing spells that they cast on themselves before battle. The specific spells cast depend on the magus. Your magus doesn't really have much; from your list of spells, I'd cast Shriek of the Impending Shaft, providing you very good protecting from missiles and most thrown weapons. A more questionable choice is Eyes of the Cat, which you can cast if you think we'll be in dakness, but it's unlikely. Another consideration is when to cast the spells - right now we're at a Divine aura providing -5 to casting, and we'll get back to an Infernal aura providing (perhaps) -2 to casting, so it might be more efficient to cast things once we get there - but we might also have no time, and botches tend to be more dangerous in an infernal aura. More generally, typical defensive and buffing spells for magi include - Wizard's Sidestep ReIm 10 (this is the spell Leo will cast on himself before we descend)Veil of Invisibility PeIm 20Gift of the Bear's Fortitude MuCo 25Endurance of the Berserkers ReCo 15 [but usually at increased duration]Circling Winds of Protection CrAu 20 [often at increased duration]Other spells are of course relevant, depending on circumstances and the magus at hand, but the above are the most typical, I feel.</blockquote>
