Thanks. I can understand how they can get bigger, but remember, Nettleshield becomes obsolete mid 20's because of a better version. Its just frustrating trying to suit up to SOE standards on book levels, when Nettleshield, for example, sells for 5+ gold. <font color="#ffcc00"><b><i>Why would anyone pay for an upgrade to Nettleshield?</i></b></font> <div></div>

Your right, no one that actualy knows what the upgrade does would pay even a gold at that level for it. There lies the real problem. People buying it thinking they are getting something good but are basicly being ripped off. Solution, list on the spell (amybe a tab) what kind of changes upgrading a spell would cause.
