What're your personal "signature spells"?

[jgsugden]

Tiny servant is the best spell in the game.

It is interesting how many lonely people in gaming worlds suddenly aspire to 5th level wizard....

However, Phantasmal Force is the single most amusing spell in the game.

For a long time, my signature spell was Glitterdust. Throughout 2E and 3E, it was my go-to move for starting any combat against two or three enemies, since it had a strong chance of blinding one of them for the duration. Plus, it's shiny, and it's a non-lethal option in case you need one. It looks like the kind of spell that a good person would use.

Ever since they ruined it in Pathfinder, there's never been a spell in any edition that has jumped out at me as fun and useful to the same degree.

Mine are Rage and Reckless attack.

Mine are Rage and Reckless attack.

And excellent spells they are my friend. You are a Wizard of the School of Bicep Magic I presume?

Aside from Eldritch Blast, my warlock used Hunger of Hadar up through level 10. Now at level 14, he's been using Synaptic Static a lot or Scorching Ray if something needs to die right now or its concentration has to be broken.

Good sir (or madam). You think I jest? You think I am kidding? I must assure you that I am most certainly not.

No, I do not think you're kidding... I even posted in that thread.

However, any wizard that has taken that spell and not considered various dirty uses of it are... overlooking.

My 5e Paladin loved Moonbeam. Come and get me, or try to get around me and get toasted.

The Wizard in my Tiamat group used to like Shatter, even over Fireball.

My Arcane Trickster uses Message more than anything else - including Mage Hand and the Illusion spells.

 

[Ogre Mage]

There are a few that are always taken if I can:

0: Eldritch Blast, Guidance
1: Healing Word, Bless, Shield, Absorb Elements, Goodberry
2: Pass Without Trace
3: Fireball, Hypnotic Pattern, Spirit Guardians, Conjure Animals
4: Greater Invisibility

Others that I am highly likely to take:

1: Cure Wounds, Sleep
2: Spiritual Weapon, Misty Step, Invisibility
3: Counterspell, Haste
4: Banishment, Polymorph, Conjure Woodland Beings
5: Mass Cure Wounds, Hold Monster

Prestidigitation

It's the only spell I will always take.
