Should said humanoid use it, yes if the encounter calls for it but there may not be time for them to do so.  If the party wins (kills the spell caster) then treasure for the party especially for the Wizard. IME we had plenty of magic items to go around, obviously it is different gaming styles and tastes in our experiences.  It seems that after reading how a lot of people didn't have fun with their low level Wizards, ect regardless of edition that I enjoyed my gaming more then they.</blockquote>
