Can anyone post here cool combos for Chain Contingency for a solo Sorcerer?
My combo upon seeing an enemy is Web, Greater Malison and Spider Spawn. Well, it sucks a bit coz I sometimes get plastered by the Web too when the badies move kinda fast (imps, imps, imps, imps, imps, hasted golems).

Wail of the Banshee sucks ya sure the description makes it sound good but it isn't I think it should at most be a level 8 spell (maybe even level 7) not a level 9 spell
Also, it works poorly against the higher-level enemies since they keep making their saving throws. As for the lower-level ones, Death Spell handles them just fine, and is quicker to cast. I would say the best 9th-level spells are Time Stop and Spell Strike.

My best combo for Chain Contingency would be three Abi-Dalzams
(I kill almost anything this way)

Those three "dead" spells are useful in different situation.
The Death spell is good against summoned creatures or multiple low hit dice enemies (trolls, umber hulks).
The Finger of dead is good against a single (tough) enemy, which has a bad save vs spell (probably lowered with greater malison).
The Wail of banshee is good against multiple targets with bad save vs death (like mages).

Yep, even the mages could save (vs death). Anyway I don't have much real experience with Wail of Banshee as I play with xp cap.

My spies have heard about some really kinky games some members of the Brotherhood of the woods played with there elementals.
After a short time of experimenting they found out that there Water elementals didn't go with there Fire elementals.
