A bit simple, but perhaps multiple soulguards give you more revivals?
Also you used to be able to cluwne borgs. It obviously doesn't work, but there's a puff of smoke, the demented laughter, and you see the sprite morph into a cluwne for a few seconds only to flicker back to the borg. Useless, but I always found it hilarious when used.

How about instead of allowing multiples of the same spell, we just add a bunch of different but similar spells, like some kind of lightning bolt spell that does shock damage and stun (also charging borgs if they get hit), or a pyroblast spell that just launches fire in front of you, minor things like that that functionally could be used similarly

Can't you already do that?
Also mastery of a spell could, if nothing else, allow you to cast it regardless of your state of dress. Even if you lose your staff and your robes and such, you could still cast pandemonium to be a jerk.

Is shockwave even still around? Someone told me it was but last time I got wizard it wasn't on the list.

Shockwave was removed. I assume cause it could crash servers pretty easy with all the spinning shit.

I think it was removed. I never even saw the spell used, but by the description on the wiki it seemed a bit similar to pandemonium's meteor summon spell in actual effect (Knocks people away) combined with rathen's secret stunning. Why use shockwave when you can get almost the same effect with Rathen's Secret and twice the hilarity?
As a side note, I've seen wizzy's make a force field thing around them that acts as a shield? Is that the forcewall spell? By what the wiki says it seems like forcewall makes invisible walls that block hallways instead?
And to answer your earlier question like I said you could (not sure if still can) "Cluwne" borgs. It doesn't really work and wastes a use of the spell but I find it funny to imagine the guy playing the borg freaking out for a few seconds "OH GOD I'VE BEEN CLUW- oh nevermind." and watch the borg be a cluwne for a half second or so.
On topic, what if we could "Combine" spells? For example if you had clown's revenge and fireball, you would unlock a spell called "Clown's combustion act". This spell has it's own cooldown. It can ONLY be used if fireball and clown's revenge are ready to be used and when used counts as a use of both spells. In layman's terms you have to wait for both spells to cooldown + the combined spell's cooldown to finish.
Clown's Combustion act both cluwne's the victim AND sets him on fire!
Rathen's Secret combined with fireball unlocks Rathen's Enigma makes the explosion incendiary instead of magical, also setting them on fire.
Rathen's Secret combined with empower + clown's revenge turns the victim into a cluwne, and his severed butt into some sort of hostile buttbot or something.
Blink/teleport/phaseshift combined with ice beam makes a cloud of freezing cold gas as you teleport away, and in the case of phase shift as you move around you make a little ice trail.

Spellmixing actually sounds fucking awesome, but also nightmarish to implement.

Toybasher the force spell you describe is "Spell Shield".
It protects a wizard from all attacks (lasers, beating, kinetic projectiles) but not explosions for 15 seconds.
it makes me think of those sick wizard duels from harry potter.

Its temporary and disappears when the spell ends.
