Good lower level spells to bother a higher level party?

[QUOTE="milo, post: 4826588, member: 929"] Ray of clumsiness+Escalating Enfeeblement(Complete Mage) Escalating enfeeblement is a second level spell that acts exactly like ray of enfeeblement, unless the target already has a penalty to one of their physical ability scores, at that point it becomes a D10 instead of a D6. Magic missile+Fell drain or fell weaken Another good option is a magic missile w/ fell weaken or fell drain. He could hit 3 targets with magic missile at 5th level. Fell weaken is one level higher and fell drain is two levels higher. Weaken gives a -4 to str for one minute and fell drain gives a negative level for a minute. The penalty affects every enemy hit with the spell. Grease Even though the ray spells are touch based you might have issues hitting anything other than fullplate style tanks. You could be aiming at an AC of 18+ pretty easily with a high dex and ring of prot. Throw expertise on there and you could be looking at low 20s. At 6th level you would have a +3 BAB and a dex of 16 would give you a +6 to hit. So cat's grace and haste would help out with his to hit and haste would help others out also, you would be looking at a +9 to hit with your level 6 at this point. If you make his minion a halfling you would have another +2 over that(size and dex bonus). Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
