My druid got Sleet Storm as a third level spell, not sure what other classes should get it? It does seem a bit bugged as it doesn’t work properly on uneven ground (it seems to just create a flat surface rather than coating the terrain) but it’s there.

I did miss an animal summon (Summon Beast I think is level 2) as a druid, but the way Flaming Sphere has been implemented as a summon perhaps makes it unnecessary except thematically.

I’ve said elsewhere that I’d like Detect Magic to work to highlight containers with magical items in as well as items themselves to help focus looting. Identify could be fun if only required occasionally for rare or unique items, where the party couldn’t pass an arcana check (it was just a chore in the original BG games, especially the first, so I wouldn’t want them to be used as a model).
