You could also invest into alchemy to learn how to make permament potion yourself to imcrease mana level or strength for higher melee damage level. Since you have no bow or cross-bow skill you certainly don't need to improve dexterity. You should boost your mana level to be able to cast a lot of the more powerfull spell before running out of mana. The leader of the mage teaches until 200 and than you can use potions to get the mana level even higher. If you kill all enemies and animals you should be able to reach level 34 or higher. Which gives you plenty of skill points to use. But if you are already in chapter 2 you should be able to learn the 2nd circle and learn fireball which is more powerfull than fire arrow. Just return to the monastery and learn the new circle and spell and than go back to the mines. You can increase you circle every new chapter. Look in the manual to find out which spell does which kind of damage and than decide which spell you want to learn in each circle. If you are a mage you should do most of the fighting with spells and not with melee weapon. Otherwise, what is the point in being a mage.
