Well, I was bored, so I decided to come up with a list of area of effect spells with an instantaneous duration that have no SR and a Reflex save for the Spellwarp Sniper. Currently, I'm only checking Spell Compendium and PHB, but I will soon be adding spells from PHB II, Complete Mage, and the Fiendish Codices. Anything I didn't mention I don't have and would love for people to submit. This will not include cantrips because cantrips are silly. EDIT: Maat_Mons has the full list down there. For sake of scrolling, I'm just gonna copy this. This is all thanks to him, by the way. I really did very little. The List

Dear lord, 0 in the PHB. Maybe I need to expand the criteria.

What is this 'blank' spell and what does it do? Seriously though, it would be really nice if we could get a total compilation of all the spells that could benefit the Spellwarp. That'd be one hell of a handy handbook.

I looked, but found nothing of note, in Dragons of Faerun, Dragonmarked, Cityscape, Lords of Madness, the Draconomicon, Libris Mortis, the BoVD, and the BoED so far.
I'd really suggest that you also include no save/no SR spells, as they wind up identical to Ref/no SR spells when spellwarped and may be more common.
It may be worth noting that Born of the Three Thunders also becomes more useful with a spellwarped spell, as opponents automatically fall prone if they fail their Fort saves.
(Also, is there an updated list of book abbreviations somewhere? I'm pretty sure on most of them but I'd just like to be sure.)

So what spells can the Spellwarp Sniper convert?
Is it just area of effect spells with instaneous duration?
Or does it also have to have no SR as well?

You can convert any area spell with a duration of instantaneous and a range greater than touch. (Worth noting here may be that Arcane Reach/Divine Reach/Ocular Spell/Reach Spell can all increase a spell's range and thereby qualify it for spellwarping.)
Spells with Reflex saves are preferable because the conversion process actually removes Reflex saves from spells. Fort and Will saves, as well as SR, remain on a spellwarped spell.
In other words, a spell that is orginally Ref half/no SR will become no save/no SR. One with Ref half/SR will become no save/SR, one that is Fort half/no SR will become Fort half/no SR, etc.

EDIT: Argh. I don't have time; Ihave to go somewheere in a minute. What I was doing was to go here, to the Dynamic Sheet section, to spells, and then creating a master list of everything and going through it.
On the CO IRC, generally as TorpedoFish. Vain? Me? NEVER.

You're the straightest shooter I know on these boards. You don't mince words about your opinions, and I respect that about you. The whole fiasco you described in the last State of the CO Forum was particularly enlightening (and kind of disappointing with regards to how they see us).
Ah, Tsuyo. When your post isn't one sentence long full of asterisks, you have much wisdom to share with us  .
From the IRC: (19:52) RuinsFate: You know, I was gonna agree with something PalOn said... but I think I'm just gonna through my lot in with tsuyo's sudden train-wreck grade interjection.
