Spell and scroll/item damage inconsistencies

[MadDemiurg]

Wizard's jolting touch deals 20-35 shock damage. Item/scroll version is 55-75.

 

Fan of flames is 40-55. Scroll is 45-60.

 

Most other spells seem to be in line, so I suppose these just were not updated. I haven't checked every spell, there might be more. Majority of the spells are in line with their item versions however, e. g. fireball, rolling flame, ray of fire are the same, so I suppose this is a bug. I wouldn't mind to see wizards jolting touch toned up instead of scroll toned down though, because as of now it's completely useless compared to fan of flames.
