I’m currently making a wizard following the school of necromancy.  What do you guys think are the best necromancy spells from Levels one to five (wizard level is 1-9).  Thanks!

Cantrips

Chill Touch

Toll Dead

1st

False Life (little bit of health for squishy necroman)

Ray of Sickness (chance for poison, but some monsters are immune to poison)

2nd

Ray of Enfeeblement (To hit, not save = good)

Gentle Repose (Only useful if party is low on healers, otherwise don't take)

3rd

Animate Dead (Free for Necromancers)

Life Transference (Good as a final sacrifice, turn 3 hp into 32 for a teammate)

Vampiric Touch (Good for close range, but concentration)

4th

Blight (big boy damage)

5th

Negative Flood Energy (all around good damage)

Danse Macabre (could be good in a large battle)
