mantle of spells advise

[True believer]

I am currently playing a dweomerkeeper and i am having trouble choosing a 2 lvl spell for my mantle of spell ability !!! I am looking for something useful in both social and battle terms !! Any suggestions ?

Generally, I look for spells that you wouldn't want to prepare, but will absolutely save your bacon when you cast them in their ideal circumstance. With that in mind, here are some options to consider:


alter fortune (3rd level divine/arcane)
celerity (4th level arcane)
revivify(5th level divine)
greater dispel magic (6th level divine/arcane)
antimagic field (6th level arcane/8th level divine)
limited wish (7th level arcane)
miracle (9th level divine)

Summon Monster (above III) is useful even if you're not specialized in it, if only for the SLAs. There's some real gems there.
Protection from Evil/Magic Circle against Evil isn't something to cast all the time but it can really save you when dominates or similar are flying around.
The various skill boosters, like Divine Insight, Guidance of the Avatar, Improvisation, Wieldskill, depending on what you have access to.

i am having trouble choosing a 2 lvl spell

Any reason it has to be 2nd lvl? Shouldn't you be able to cast 3rd lvl when entering the class?
