felix said:Shatter, however, not only uses what should be the bard's mainstay, his voice, but also has a nice versatility to it. You may destroy most anything with only a Will save in your way, and that's if it's attended. Think, "Saruman, your staff is broken!" kind of cinematic cool.
Shatter is actually really weak since:
Shatter creates a loud, ringing noise that breaks brittle, nonmagical objects; sunders a single solid, nonmagical object; or damages a crystalline creature.
Most items you want to shatter at your enemy are magic.
Suggestion could be used to great effect (and without the uncertain Fascinate). Even at higher levels it is a good spell.
Silence is a great spell to shut down spellcasters without a save, just move close. Near to broken in my opinion.
Glitterdust ist good vs. invisible and low level opponents.
Tongues depends on your campaign. May be very good or nearly useless.
