From what I've seen of other people slapping me about, the best combo, if you can land it, is A simultaneous hit with Death Ray (Wand of Death) and Burn. They both hit immediately and because they are two separate instances of damage it will one-shot even force-fielded wizards and conjurers.
Against NPCs, the most effective spells against small griblies would be lightning. Slow, hulking great ones, fireball, and for the quick but dangerous ones, keep them locked in confusion while you zap 'em down.
As for traps, there are a couple particularly effective ones. Against relatively new players, obliteration mixed with some kind of movement hindering spell normally works, add an anchor to that to help against casters. For trapping elevators, Teleport to Target, Burn and Death Ray, all aimed at yourself, works wonders. It chews through force fields and even warrior's colossal health pool, normally. Another one to mess with people is Blink and Fumble. Adding tag or something else to that depending on what you want to do with the trap. That can prove rather aggravating, as I know first hand.
I'm a sneaky bastard. A big fan of Pyrotechnics, especially in traps. Unfortunately I'm not good at being the guy who instagibs people with death rays. Oh well.
Called Brentendo in game, and on skype. Come say hi, and discuss things with me, sometime.
