[QUOTE="Sorinth, post: 9678597, member: 7050650"] Never had that problem, the type of spells you prepare and use might change, but stuff like Shield remain useful forever, Silvery Barbs is something that you'll want to cast often no matter the tier of play. Hell just dump all your low level slots at the start of the day on something like Gift of Alacrity so everyone in the party gets a nice buff. And you could also improve some of the support spells to scale with character level by using something like Proficiency bonus as part of the spell. Take Longstrider as an example, suppose it's duration was a number of hours equal to your proficiency bonus. At higher tier's why wouldn't you drop some of those low level spell slots to give everyone in the party a nice little buff. Or allow False Life to target anyone, sure it's not a huge boost but if you have a ton of low level spell slots, no reason not to cast it freely because the THP will get used up. [/QUOTE]
