Hi.
Trouble with a lot of these things for me is I give em a cursory read..."yep, got that, know all about it" if it don't hurt me and does a modicum of damage somewhere else then I stick with it. Unfortunately I've very rarely "got it" and usually I know even less about it. Chromatic orb and magic missiles I've never bothered with. It was only yesterday that I realised what good spells they are. I got kind of bogged down with the thought "higher level = better spell" mentality. True, but very easy to dismiss the low level stuff too quickly.
Lightning...great spell, great for toasting. Great for toasting my own party anyway. I can't get the hang of that spell for the life of me and the wand should carry a health warning with a geometric graph. That thing sends bolts out in six directions and is devastating on impact. It just always impacts me back the bloody thing.
