Finely worth having! But I'm not sure what you mean with spells doing less damage. All of the classic damage dealing spells that I looked at seemed to do at least as much damage, and often more. Maybe we're talking about a different category of damage spells, but the classic evocations, at least, seem better than ever.</blockquote>
