Spell Suggestions of PC

So elven wizard, no specialization getting 5th level.

So far we've been running in dungeons that were size restricted, so i think some of the more normal fireball and area spells might not be the best. In addition we've had the majority of enemies have spell resistence so, spells like rain of hail which ignores that may be useful.

I've not run a spellcaster this high, so what would be peoples top pick for a limited area spell, and a more utility type of spell.

thanks for the thoughts.

any PrCs with FULL spellcasting progression i'd like to hear thoughts on too,

Thanks again

the orb spells are great for damage spells when spell resistance is a problem plus they're single target so no worries with the area.

Is the wizard 5th level or are you getting 5th level spells? Im sorry if Im missing the obvious.

Wild Mage + practised spellcaster = great synergi

Regarding spells: the following are some of the best core spells (strictly defensive stuff not included), of said level. I included the greater orb of..., since they are darn nice, if you want to do damage and bypass SR.

3rd
stinking cloud
slow
haste
dispel magic
deep slumber


4th
polymorph
black tentacles
greater invisibility
enervation
greater orb of ...*
confusion
solid fog

5th
dominate person
baleful polymorph
