Low Level Spells VS. High Level Spells (firebolts, thunder bolts, ice bolts)

[tehfusion]

I'm not a mage, but from what I've seen... Higher level spells give far more damage per second. Lower level spells pretty much never draw aggro from an enemy though. So if you have a non-fighter tanking (i.e. a cleric that has no skills to draw aggro due to being a cleric), you can ensure that he/she tanks by using lower level ones.
