Boosting spells with extra ST

Now, I will have to ask about the Staff Spells. Since their present form is unique to Legacy TFT, I would still require an IQ point per staff spell. Perhaps, that is not consistent with the new house rule but I would have to be convinced to include the Staff spells in this house rule.

I think a good argument could be made for letting a wizard who increases IQ to the more advanced spell’s level to just get it.
