Beware the Sleepeater
Sorry if this is necroing... But I don't think I could agree with the OP's suggestion. Level one spells shouldn't be as good as level 6 spells. And this is reflected in the maximum dice of damage the offensive spells have. Magic Missile is an awesome spell. But it shouldn't be as powerful as Chain Missile or Force Missile.
