Mine are fear, confusion, decentagrate,fire ball, lightning bolt, cloud kill, feeble minde, and melfs acid arrow. what are your favorites?

chain lightening, searing light, fireball, magic missile, shield of faith and confusion

i would have to say : chainlightening,fire ball, shield of faith, magic missile and melf's acid arrow

Confusion is the best spell of all time, along with hold monster and damage spells.

Well yea i know but i'm actually a beginner i played baldurs gate 2 and neverwinter nights before but i'm only playing pool of radiance for about 4 months... so i cant cast that spell

1st: Sleep, magic missile, shocking grasp 2nd: bulls str, invisibility, melf's acid arrow 3rd: fireball, lightning bolt, haste 4th: minor invulneability, etc. Chain lightning and cone of cold are probably favorites.

haste, hands down. they can't stop it, it helps everybody's AC and attacks...I've played ROMD a few times now, and Jarial, bless his little heart, just isn't that great of a melee fighter (duh). But cast haste on him the first round, then cast two hastes on your two best melee fighters the second round, and so on, and it's almost always over in about a minute of real time. I used to pick up Emmerich and the paladin and run a fighter-heavy party (one cleric, one thief/fighter, four fighter types) and that was that. But Haste makes Jarial worth keeping, especially since you pick up a freaking metric ton of stuff that only he can use.

For a Sorcerer I would have to say my favorite spells are disintegrate on undead and finger of death on everyone else. Fireball is another good one but F of D has pinpoint accuracy. For Clerics I like Fire Strike and of course Heal and Raise Dead are invaluable. Any of the "Cloud" type spells bogged my computer down so much I couldn't stand to use them.
