  Really depends on the level  At low levels im all niacs, but in higher levels i go for MM.

  Both are in my Sorc's spellbook but both are very situational. Niac's has a save for  0 damage and thus on critters with good saves its not spell point efficent in the least unless you raise your DC to rediculous levels and even that isn't all that viable because Niac's uses a different school for it's DC than most other damage spells so using a feat in the specialty for it is in my opinion a waste. MM is good at lower levels but its usefulness is limited at the higher levels where you can use a variety of damaging elemental spells as well as disintigrate to do a far larger amount of raw dmg quickly. Both are usefull spells in the right situation and both are equally useless in others.

  I think a wizard benefits more from having Niac's personally as it is very situational, those kobolds in the earlier levels with their high reflex saves are swines! Using Niac's in Shan-To-Kor however rocks!

  Would be interesting seeing Niac's with the spell focus conjuration and greater spell focus conjuration feats however plus the enhancement to cold damage!

  You must not leave until you free Arlos and have gathered your party safely in this hallway.

  Niac's is situational. but never use it past lv 8, by then it's utterly useless, I calculated dmg, chance to land, and SP.
  
  
  
  MM is very weak, use it only in certain situations, when other damaging spells don't apply.
