Along with Mirror Image, Stoneskin is the best defensive spell in the game. Note that it can be cast on allies, not just the spellcaster. The same goes for Greater Invisibility. Combat units buffed with Stoneskin and Greater Invisibility are suddenly on a whole other level in terms of staying power/tanking prowess.
