In a FR game I'm currently playing in, using Pathfinder as the base, and Faerun supplimental books, I made an Elemental (Fire) Sorcerer.
Now, I've taken all the fire-enhancing feats I could lay my grubby paws on (Bloodline of Fire, Spell Thematics, Cali****e Elementalist), so the end result, is that, when using a Rod of Empower Spell, I can slam out a 16d6 fireball three times a day. Not bad, I know, but also not very effective vs shadows (50% miss chance and all.)
Seeing as we're level 7 currently, and going to be hitting 8 soon, I thought I'd pick the Hive-Mind here, and see what all of you could help me wrangle up.
For starters, he's a follower of Mystra, and a bunch of Shadows have been popping up an abandoned temple of hers, as well as attacking a few other places.
Right now we're wrapped up in Sidequest-City, but eventually we'll get back to the main-plot, which means fighting Illithids (yecch, I know, but apparently their SR is considered 10 below listed, so I'll have a better chance of slamming through them) and eventually, Shadows.
Now, aside from an obscure reference to a 2e spell that completely decimated all shadows within 100ft radius, I'm pretty much tapped out. Can any of you recommend a good 4th level spell to blast said baddies with?
Obviously Orb of Fire would be ideal for smitin' the squid-heads, but my main worry is the shadows. More information on the character will be provided upon request. (Blah blah blah, not changing race (human: cali****e), feats (I like'm), or stats (9, 15, 14, 14, 12, 18+2 [enhancement from item]))
