SUGGESTION-
increase the caster-level cap on the earthquake and bombardment spells to 20th level.

ARGUMENT-
these are bio-bugs. the spells are currently capped at 10 dice dmg -- what the spells would inflict by 10th-level casters. earthquake is an 8th-level spell [9th level for druids], as is bombardment, so they're first castable when the caster reaches 15th level [17th for druidic earthquake ], so dmg will always be 10 dice, which is not only a programming bug [or a 'design flaw'], but also woefully inadequate at that level, especially given that opponents receive a std reflex save to mitigate the dmg [or completely avoid it, in the case of evasion / imp.evasion -- two feats which aren't uncommon at that level].

I could totally get behind this. I dont believe either spell is party-friendly, and that means they will be mainly used when solo, and that is when a cleric needs AoE damage.
