  Surge of fortune, 5th lv cleric spell, GIVES a NAT 20 on a roll. Swift action nat 20( swift 3/day)Combined with a second level spell " find weekness " = Auto Crit ! Combined with touch attack ( combust ?) maximized (free) or you spell of choice. I prefer gishs, so HTH is not bad for me. Manyteeth 3ed lv wiz/soc spell...duration 3 rounds, or cast as a swift with 1 round duration. When i cast it normal, I use max on it( 60 points of force ) then a rod ( glove really for 1.5X the cost) to extend it to 6 rounds....The nice part is if you are invisable, it is hard to trace the effect back to you.

Might i suggest something simple, look up that list of spells that f*cking kill people. Or spells that don't suck listsan then use your imagination I'm sure using the recaster powers on a few of those would be especially dirty in play

   The point of asking is to help find spells the maximize the return of useing the Recaster class. I mentioned one that needs the Recasters special abilty to gain spells from anouthers spell list, as well as benifiting from the Recasters special abilty to make swift a duration spell. Something that both Manyteeth and Surge of Fortune both benifite from. Or one could use Manyteeth normally and still see great return. I tend to build from a spontainious casters point of view, so every spell must serve more than one use.

I agree with prius. You can always find the way to "optimize" a character, concept, w/e by yourself. But there are people that already played a recaster, or see the topic and instantly has a spell on it's mind. And that helps to build a character way easier. For example, I didn't even play usually with Complete champion, but the DM's I play with are starting to accept it. So now I have a whole book that I don't have time to read now, and if somebody already know it from usual play, it's better to ask. The same with spells from other classes that you don't usually play. 
Also there are spells that maybe you don't think are good spells the first time you read it, and then somebody suggest you that spell, and you find a good use for it (like manyteeth, which I didn't like it at first, but now I think it's a cool spell).

Going to your suggestion,  most of SoD spells are instant duration. Maybe there are some that aren't, but there are few.

Cloudkill, Acid Fog, Vortex of Teeth, Evard's Black Tentacles, Solid Fog, Tidal Wave (I think tht's the name of it; an 8th-level druid spell in SpC)

     I have been playing Recasters since they were first introduced ( when I get to play 3.5 ). I have never posted before since I did not want to find tons of people useing " my " build...Years down the road, I think, who am I afraid will see it ? Recasters broke the cardnel rule  " Thou shalt not lose castor levels" I still loved them, Then when residual metamagic showed up....I was like " This was MADE for them".  My only complaint...only 5 levels. My DM for the campain houseruled my other complaint...Changling. I loved the flavor of the class, and lots of metamagic for free.

I like Murderous Mist (SC) for the Time ability, but it's a Druid spell so you have to spend a learning slot on it. If you do, you get swift action, Ref-based, no-SR blinding over a pretty good area.
