Note that this is true UNTIL you hit level 18 and learn 9th level spell, then... well... I assume you do become tier 1!2 a) At 1st level you have Magic Missile and Mage Armor. There are a bunch of utility spells you can get a higher levels, too. For second level the buffs work great (+4 to a stat) and Invisibility is godly; apart from that, Flaming Sphere and Scorching Ray are your go to damage spells. 3rd level hits you with a ton of useful spells, like Fireball, Blink and Fly. That's enough to get you to level 7. But my main advice is to take Summon Monster spells at every level.2 b) Damage spells that don't scale well past certain level, buff that provide bonuses that are already covered by magic items you found (Mage armor - Bracers of Armor; Eagle's Splendor - Headband of Charisma, etc), etc.</blockquote>
