Shame they kept the halved spell level. It serves no purpose, and adds complexity. What's wrong with having spell levels matching caster levels i.e. a fifth-level caster can cast up to fifth-level spells (obviously the spells get put into levels differently than they are now - fireball would be e.g. 5th level)?</blockquote>
