Also note that you could simply select a spell off your list normally if playing a spontaneous caster. Say your sorcerer simply wants to have vampiric touch or ray of exhaustion in this case it would simply be an extra spell known.

Actually, that's one thing that I don't think this ability does. It adds to the class spell list, not to your personal spells known. If you wanted to then use the spell as a spontaneous caster, you would then have to spend a spells known slot on it...

Yup you are correct -- I must have gotten it confused with similar abilities like the magician archetype bard's ability.

I'm about to start a wizard aiming at Savant. It'll be my first venture into PF(coming from 3.5). My thought, in addition to looking for lower leveled spells, was to snag unique spells from other classes lists. For example, Glibness from bard might be worth it even as a 4th level spell. Breath of life from cleric seems like a decent option, in anticipation of getting Contingency at some point. Freedom of Movement is also decent, since it covers one of a wizard's weaknesses(getting grabbed by something big and annoying).

Any other suggestions of cool spells that deserve to be cherry picked, even at +1 level?
