The Alterer suffers from a lack of access to the Evocation school of magic, the long duration and heavy impact of their spells plus the general usefulness of their school makes them a good choice for all mages. Since they have their own kind of destructive magic, they will find they don't miss evocations at all.

How to Play
Alterers find that their list of spells that cause damage are limited because they do not have access to the evocation spell school. Two highly effective spells in the alteration school are Burning Hands and Gravity Slam.
Burning hands combines very well with the transmutation spell Weakness to Fire, and should be used to increase the amount of damage from Burning Hands and reduce the amount of mana required to continually cast it.
Fly, also from the transmutation school, will increase the amount of damage inflicted by Gravity Slam.
Some have also suggested that Acid Arrow can be effective when combined with Weakness to Acid.
Alterers are the only class that have access to Wish and Limited Wish. These are arguably some of the most powerful abilities in CoffeeMUD, and often the most dangerous to use. Depending on the wording of the spell, they can create large amounts of money, kill an opponent, take ownership of land, teach someone a skill permanently, or improve their attributes among other things. Wish has a steep cost, and will consume experience at a minimum, often an entire level, and depending on the wish will consume constitution and reduce the casters maximum constitution. The wording is also important because a badly phrased wish can result in a different (and often unwanted) outcome.

Notes
- Due to their restriction on conjuration spells, Drow may not wish to specialize in alteration. (Need to verify interaction with Darkness Globe)
