Elder-Basilisk

I don't think you're missing anything. It's quite a good tactic. However, it's pretty expensive in terms of resources. Assuming a 16+ int and specialization, the character just burned half his third level spells and one second level spell for an effect that approximates a no-evasion fireball from a full-level caster. (Though it should be pointed out that he can still quite possibly miss at this point--it's not uncommon for NPCs to have touch ACs of 12-13 and dextrous types will probably have 14-16 meaning that there's a 15-35% chance that it won't do anything to any given enemy. It's good against fullplate fighters with no deflection bonuses but not as good as one might hope against rogues).
