i've got around 200 spells of different effects and ranks.
and nine shortcuts.
that's a pain in the ass...
half of my stuff i don't use anyway, but even then i don't have enough shortcuts by far.
since i don't have enough mana anyway (three deep freeze nukes and my mana's half gone) i'm concerned to use the mana-friendliest rank possible. i wont finish 10%-health-mobs off with max-rank spells.
rank 1 fire dart, rank 6 fire dart, rank 2 compress atmosphere, rank 6 compress atmosphere, rank 6 deep freeze, ogre's strength, air shield, invisibility, haste, lore, and so forth.
most of the time i'm busy switching between spells using that - sorry - crappy spellbook.
first thing: make it a real spellbook. with pages to switch, giving it some artwork.
first thing: gimme more shortcuts. pu-weeeze.
