Too right, but I won't be in DE5 much longer, we're nearly finished!

Just to change the subject a little - since I cast most of my magic straight from scroll I have noticed a few odd things. Sometimes the spell from the scroll is better than I expect for my Level. For example Magic Missile cast from memory give one missile but when cast from scroll fires off several missiles. Also I get 3 or 4 Mirror Images and I remember getting a 'stun' effect from Chromatic Orb. Could it be that the strength of the spell is based on XP rather than Level? I wouldn't expect it to be, but playing in a way that was not envisaged can result in some unexpected side-effects.
