03-18-06, 08:44 AM Wieldskill from Magic of Faerun page 134 (adds +10 competence bonus) and Divine insight on page 70 of the spell compendium (adds 5 +caster level (max +15) insight bonus). Since they are different types of bonus they will stack with each other too ;)

Personally I love these spells. If you are a spontaneous caster like a favoured soul then they are superb since you can use them as needed without memorising and there are a few funky things you can do with them.

Wieldskill is particularly nice since you are considered to have a half rank in the skill (so you can use skills normally unavaillable to you). If you use it with the Find traps spell for example then you are probably (much) better at finding traps than the party rogue up to around 7th level. After that you can probably afford to use Divine insight as well and become a grand master of just about anything skill related.
