Awesome, thanks! My trail of vengeful ghosts (because of course I had to keep going back) can soon rest in peace!
Just don't cross the beams!

Streams!  Not beams!  Streams!

Now make like a tree and get outta here. ;)

Okay, so I don't think I fully understand spell tiers.

I understand at the start of the game I have spell blah blah I and spell yadda yadda I. But then my books run out. Do my spells automatically upgrade after a certain civ level? Do I have to find new books? And at what civ level should I start searching for book to make tier II spells (and so on).

Basically, how do I get the next-tier spells?

The books just unlock kinds of spells -- once you unlock a recipe in general, you never have to unlock it again.

To get higher-tier stuff, you'll need to find higher-tier gems.

Is the settlement level 50?  Or did it spawn in a level 50 region?

It spawned in a level 50 region, although the settlement is level 48.

Hmm, I may need to make them not keep spawning at region level then, since fighting something 7 levels higher than you actually means something now ;)

Means there is a windstorm in that region.

Is it still a good rule of thumb not to venture into regions 4 levels aboove your civ level or has this changed due to recent patches?

Definitely still true, but in the first 6 or so levels it's less of a big deal.

That's good to know I've just started a new game with the latest patch and wanted to make sure. Thanks.

Just entered a cavern and had my first boss fight on my new game and I was wondering if it would be possible to autotarget the closest boss when entering a boss room. Maybe this should just apply in caves just an idea. What does everyone else think?

You can just hit TAB -- I don't see a reason to make it automatic.  You can target bosses even that are not onscreen if you wish, so it's just a button press away already.
