I find a "target" rather than a "touch" spell or a "cast on strike" weapon to be the best choice. I have 2 versions, one with radius 10 and the other with max radius. The latter is fun if you want to get a bunch of enemies ticked off at you at once and gobble a bunch of souls quickly.
In any case, casting at range gives you ample time to switch spells/weapons, and you don't need to carry any extra weapon.
