Beguiler needs a spell

[Vorput]

The Beguiler in our group hit third level last session, and got her advanced learning class feature.

This lets her pick up any illusion/enchantment spell of 0 or 1st level and add it to her class list.

We umm... can't find any she doesn't already have that are even mildly useful.

Advice?

From memory, the Beguiler in my group chose Ventriloquism...

 

[Hammerhead]

Distract Assailant, from the Spell Compendium.

 

[Kurotowa]

Distract Assailant, from the Spell Compendium.

That's what I went with.

 

[Dog Moon]

Spell Compendium has Serene Visage. Lasts a minute/level, gives insight bonus of 1/2 caster level to Bluff checks.

That's what my current Beguiler chose.

Power Word: Pain from Races of the Dragon. A first level spell that automatically does 1d6 damage a round. Duration of the spell is based off hit points, if you have less than 50 hit points the spell lasts for 4d4 rounds.

Instant Diversion from the same book has some interesting applications. As a swift action the spell creates one illusionary double for every 4 caster levels. The Double can only move but it does emit sounds, (armor clanking, and the like). Not bad for the eventual combination w/ Invisibility.
