D&D 3E/3.5 D&D 3.5 - Favorite Evocation spells, by level

[Greenfield]

This is a discussion thread where we can list (and argue about) our favorite spells, by school and level.

This one is dedicated to Evocation spells: What's your fave, and why?

 

[xigbar]

Force Cage. For Greater Celerity/Time Stop cheap crap.

 

[StreamOfTheSky]

Contingency, of course.

 

[Empirate]

Forcecage? Really? I'm not hot on spending 1,500 gp (!) every time I want to lock some guy down. This spell is horribly overrated.
