So long story short, I am swapping out my level 7 Pathfinder Oracle for a Wizard and I am looking for tips, tactics, and spells that will allow him to continue being effective over a long haul; call it an average fight length of 7-12 rounds.
The background is that there is a 3 PC party and the other two players are, putting it nicely, not-optimized. The Oracle was supposed to be a bad-touch/support caster, but ended up being a spiritual weapon slinger because the other two characters (a fighter and a gish) could not bring enough dps to drop the foes (they are both str 10). Most battles, the Oracle ended up doing 40-60% of the total party damage. They are not interested in improving their skills/characters, so that is not really an option either.
While I rather want to play a wizard, if someone has a good reason/tips to play other classes then I'll listen.
