Additionally, I'd spend points on being able to speak all of the planar languages. It's well worth it.I'll have some 'message' spells memorised.I'll have teleport memorised at least twice.I'll have magic missile a few timesI'll have forcecage memorisedI'll have fireball memorised a couple of timesI'll have polymorph memorised twiceI'll have prestidigitation memorisedI'll have feather fall memorisedI think I'm pretty much covered.If we meet a solo creature we cannot harm, I forcecage it. Then I can memorise specific spells to deal with it.If we meet multiple smaller creatures, fireballs take care of them.In any fight, I can summon a creature appropriate to the situation. I've got a list of monsters to summon which includes everything from healing, to battlefield control. Additionally a great number of those creatures are good for utility situations.polymorph self is good for a great many things, from flying to stat boosts to swimming or whatever. It's great.teleport is in there twice so we can potentially retreat, regroup, heal and then return the same day.Message is very useful for coordinating actions.Prestidigitation is nice for a great deal of situations, from "the food is plain" to "it smells in here" to "you're slimed"...Other notable spells that I know1 comprehend languages1 feather fall1 mirror image1 identify1 magic missile2 rope trick2 glitterdust2 summon swarm2 resist energy3 circle of protection from evil3 sleet storm3 fireball4 charm monster4 summon monster iv4 polymorph5 break enchantment5 summon monster v5 teleport6 contingency6 greater dispel6 true seeing6 summon monster vi7 limited wish7 spell turning7 summon monster vii7 forcecageI think I've got it mostly covered. The contingency is most likely a teleport keyed to the front door of the dungeon (or wherever we last safely rested if there are safe resting places inside the dungeon) and triggers if I'm incapacitated.</blockquote>
