Blue
Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal
Different casters, between their spell list and features, often have niches that other classes can't match.
For sorcerers, metamagic can lead to twinned single target buffs, something no other class can do. The also can manage more quickened spell + cantrip nova output.
For bards, they have a list that's great at crowd control and debuffing, and then they have features usable at the same time for buffing (or more debuffing) that gives them a double dip of that.
Wizards can change their spells the best to fit a situation - assuming you are in the type of campaign where you can get information ahead of time that's a great boost. But clerics and druids can also do that, and they can pick from their entire list.
But what else can Wizards do to a degree more then the other casters out there besides their spell flexibility?
In other words, why wizard instead of some other caster. (Outside knowledge skills.)
