'Lo again everybody,
I'm playing an arcane hierophant build Dru4/Brd1/Chameleon1/Arcane Hierophant6 (My DM allows fractional BAB from unearthed arcana, so I do have +4 by my chameleon level), and i'm not sure what the good arcane spells that I should be taking are. I've poked around a thread or two and not found much, and the Wizard's Handbook is a little outdated, as i'm playing 3.5, so I thought I would see if anybody's got suggestions, or links to threads that have good ideas for spell for an AH. I'm a Chameleon, so I can take any arcane spell from any class, not just wizard. I can get my hands on just about any book, but I would prefer to stay away from campaign-specific ones (Faerun, Eberron, etc.) if at all possible, as we're not playing in such places so the spells might seem a little out of place. However, any source is fine, but try to suggest only REALLY good ones from world-specific stuff like that, thanks. A few i've already made note of are:

1st-Critical Strike, Distract Assailant, Distort Speech, Fist of Stone
2nd-Wraithstrike
3rd-Hymn of Praise
4th-War Cry

I haven't poked around my core books too much, 'cause i'm assuming the standard wizard spells will do pretty well if used in my AH build, but if anything would work especially well with Wild Shape capabilities, please, point it out to me. Thanks all, in advance. :)

:bump: Come on guys, 30 views and not a single person's got a spell suggestion? Is the topic really THAT uninteresting? :-p

Haste for speed and an extra attack. Fire shield for those pesky bad guys that try to hit you.
