Good points.  You also can not have an armor bypassing attack bypass a
protection spell.  Something to think about...

I have seen quite a few free lvls in MF.  Oliver Meriweather has had
around 3 or 4 free lvls.

It is VERY useful to have someone with block miss in your party.  Only
costs one to cast and can save many 'hit points' of damage.
