It's not hard to have 10 Centipedes/5 Spiders/3 Wasps/1 Scorpion (Hey if you don't mind risking the 10GP, this is a really cool thematic use of your Familiar!) on hand.  Although personally I'd probably say the 10 Centipedes are the best; sure it's only a DC 10 Con save, but one they have to make potentially 10-times, and they're PARALYZED on a failure. That's enormous, especially if there is a Rogue in the party who can take full advantage.  Or, if you're using Feats, a Great Weapon Fighter or Sharpshooter.Also kind of neat, thematically, for a Necromancer even if it isn't the Necromancy school.  And it will save you from the obnoxious alignment conversations "Animate Dead" will bring up.</blockquote>
