Last time I played Pathfinder I was playing a Summoner - and did only a minimal amount of planning. I waited to see what the problem was - and then picked the right monster from my list to throw at it. Even the non-combat encounters I could normally find an appropriate monster to e.g. send scouting. I barely touched my spell list after level 4 because I didn't want to hog the spotlight too badly (the second most powerful member of the party was a min-maxed ranger).A good wizard doesn't pick the perfect memorised spells and expect the DM to play straight to them. They pick flexible and useful spells that enable them to handle a huge variety of situations. And when the wizard is out of ideas as to spells to use they have a range of skills to match the fighter or barbarian to fall back on.</blockquote>
