Remove Conjurations from Lvl 1 Elemental Spells

Flame tongue, shock and sting should all be single school spells like pain, sandblast and freeze. This will make those caster starts more flexible/less xp starved for the first few levels of dungeon.

Sandblast/Freeze have really low range, pain checks MR/rN+.

It also potentially makes it harder on those with better conjuration aptitudes than elemental aptitudes.

And the conjuration skill will come in handy on other spells soon, anyway.

If you asked to double damage and accuracy at the same spellpower level on those spells, do you think that the idea would be well received?

You're comparing apples and watermelons. Flame Tongue's damage roll, right now, averages less than twice as much at the maximum of 25 spell power than it does at 0 spell power.
