Invisibility should be better than Hide. The Jump spell should be better than the Jump skill. A Silence spell should be better than Move Silently.Every time.As it is, they've already headed towards a situation where not only magic items are neutered, but spells are being neutered. Haste is totally rewritten. The buff spells went NOT from one hour per level to 10 minutes per level (which is a reasonable reduction), but from an hour per level down to 1 minute per level. What a total overreaction on the designers part. The Shield spell was +6/+7/+8 to AC (and +1 to saves) for 22 years, +7 to AC for 3 years (+3 to area affect Reflex saves for about 2 months of that 3 years) and then after 25 years, they suddenly determined that it was unbalanced and needed to be +4 to AC? Huh?At the rate they are going, Invisibility may in 4.0 be a bonus to your Hide skill.
