Best Melee Spells?

Spoiler: Answer the poll before reading this pls.

So I've been thinking about

Spoiler: the spells on each class

Spoiler: archer

arrow storm
escape
arrow bomb
arrow shield

and their hunter variants.

Spoiler: mage

heal
teleport
meteor
ice snake

and their dark wizard variants.

Spoiler: warrior/knight

1. Bash
2. charge
3. uppercut
4. war scream

and their knight variants.

Spoiler: assassin

1. spin attack
2. vanish
3. multihit
4. smoke bomb

and their ninja variants.

And what spells support melee builds well.
The spells I like for melee builds, myself are:

Spoiler: the melee supporting spells

Spoiler: archer

escape <-- due to that sweet sweet speed 3 and well... I guess the jump itself is ok.
arrow shield <-- çuz it knocks people back a little when they come close. (And I believe it reduces some damage.)

(Although arrow storm has some keeping people at a distance potential)

and their hunter variants.

Spoiler: mage

heal <-- it's a heal, any melee class loves being able to self-heal.
teleport <-- it's a teleport, any melee class loves
ice snake <-- it basically makes your opponent immobile for a few seconds.

and their dark wizard variants.

Spoiler: warrior/knight

charge <-- it leaps you to your opponent. 'nuff said
war scream <-- it's damage is based off melee damage and it creates distance.
(although Bash and uppercut both have some good CC potential. I must say.)

and their knight variants.

Spoiler: assassin

spin attack <-- the blinding effect is REALLY useful in pve, try it.
vanish <-- self-explanatory
multihit <-- creates good distance.
smoke bomb <-- slows the enemies when trying to melee them.

and their ninja variants.

leaving
archer with 2 spells
mage with 3 spells
warrior with 2 spells
and assassin with 4 spells

But I'd say that assassin's multihit and smokebomb are only sub-par.

Mage's spells, however, support melee VERY well. It can immobalize, heal and teleport. Which are DEADLY combinations.

Which seems like a really odd design choice. I guess that it's supposed to make up for the lack of melee damage. And to still make melee builds a viable option.
