[QUOTE="Ciaran, post: 482183, member: 756"] Adding only 1 point to an attribute is a bad idea; given that stat modifiers go up with every 2 points in the attribute, this means that the spell has a pure either/or effect; some people will gain a benefit, while some won't get anything. So it should add a flat 2 points to each attribute affected. I wrote up a clerical spell for nemmerle's Aquerra campaign that gave a +2 bonus to Strength, Constitution and Wisdom to the caster. This seemed best as a 4th level spell, since the Wisdom bonus is always good for a cleric. In retrospect, it might be a tad weak for 4th, but seems better than 3rd. Reducing duration to 10 minutes/level or 1 minute/level might balance it at 3rd, while a duration of 2 hours/level would make it a better deal at 4th. Or something like that. :) - Eric [/QUOTE]
