I mean, sure, I guess you can do this. But TFT isn't a 'leveled' game, so I don't understand the desire to force it into that structure. It's a point buy game which allows multiple different character 'builds'. If there were certain combos that were absolutely OP, I could understand it. But Weapon Expert, Fencer, and Staff III aren't exactly game breaking.

Why not just cap IQ at 10 for starting characters? That seems to accomplish the same thing, and is much less work than going through every spell and talent and deciding what is a level 1, 2, or 3.
