Party People,
I've recently leveled to 13th with my transmutation focused wizard in Rise of the Runelords. I'm actually playing a thassilonian specialist, focused on "Generosity" instead of greed. My character, Bertil Adelbrecht, worships Shelyn (Bertil Adelbrecht, Shelyn Follower | BASF). He doesn't make the party, he makes the party better.
I've done the following things mechanically:
Human, Focused Study
Trait - Clever Wordplay (Int to UMD)
Trait - Merchant Family (Sell goods at 60%)
Trait - Inner Beauty (+4 Sacred 1/Day to Craft/Diplomacy)
Trait - Transmuter of Korada (Casts Transmutation Spells at +1 CL)
Valet Familiar - Super Boosts Crafting
Feat (Human 1) - Skill Focus (Spellcraft)
Feat 1 - Additional Traits
Feat (Wizard 1) - Scribe Scroll
Feat 3 - Craft Wondrous
Feat 5 - Craft Arms
Feat (Wizard 5) - Spell Focus (Transmutation)
Feat 7 - Dazing Spell
Feat (Human 8) - Skill Focus (Use Magic Device)
Feat 9 - Craft Rod
Feat (Wizard 10) - Heighten Spell
Feat 11 - Quicken Spell
Feat 13 - ? Considering Greater Spell Focus (Transmutation) and Persistent Spell.
I've focused on crafting and spellcraft, so with Crafter's Fortune and Inner Beauty I have around +38 to a variety of crafting skills, with a +33 to Spellcraft.
I do lots of buffing and almost all of the utility casting. I have made almost all of the magic items our group utilizes. Most importantly, I have Annihilation Spectacles, which makes around 1/2 my spell slots spontaneous as I have so many transmutation slots.
What spell would you take for Spell Perfection?
I'm considering Slow and Disintegrate.
Pooping out persistent, quickened slow spells every round would be pretty cool. Jacking up the DC for disintegrate (with quickened true strike) would be fun, as I don't do much attacking.
What would you do?
I am open to any ideas. Thank you for the help!

I can definitely see how a mass Will save or suck spell could be really awesome with high DCs and a swift action casting time. If you want to continue your support role, slow is what I would pick of those two.
Pick disintegrate instead if you want to participate a little more directly. It's a great utility spell as well, but it maintains much of that utility whether or not it is perfected.
