Most schools have a conjuration-2 or conj-3 spell to boost their magic power in a given path. For instance, Summon Earthpower, which is Conj-3. These spells usually require only 1 or 2 skill to cast. (I think the water one requuires only 1 skill.)

Only Earth and Fire. Air and Water are usually unviable (require a storm and being underwater, respectively). The astral one is too expensive for low astral mages: 100 fatigue and a gem. Only good for high astral and mages in communion. Earth, Death, and Nature have cheap con-4 boosting items, though.

Level 1 mages in other paths, without communion, are generally useless outside of research and forging cheap items...
