[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7178314, member: 6670153"] He wasn't talking about the Sorceror, he was talking about threads like these. And the Sorceror does not play second fiddle to the Wizard and I say that as someone who originally kind of ignored the Sorceror compared to all the other classes. Yes the Sorceror doesn't know as many spells as the Wizard, yes the Sorceror can't change his spell selection every day to whatever is in the Wizard's spell book like a Wizard, and so on. Because the Sorceror isn't supposed to out Wizard the Wizard, the Sorceror is the Mutant the Scarlett Witch to the Wizard's Harry Potter. The Wizard can select spells from a large list, that he can change up daily, but is nothing special at most of them out side of the ones in his or her school (or in case of the spellsinger exchanges his school for combat abilities, and so it a just normal at all spells). But the Sorceror might not have all the daily choices that Wizard does, but whatever spells the Sorceror's does take the Sorceror is a master and can bend to her will, there is no spell that the Sorceror takes that does not have great meaning, and power. Spells for the Wizard are formulas, with their schools offering tricks to improve ones skill at these formulas. The Sorceror's spells are like their arm, it's instinctive, and you can use your arms and bend and rotate it in a variety of ways. And the Sorceror's weakness is its asset as well in play. You don't have to pick from a zillion of choices every long rest, trying to figure out what you might need on a given day, which is why the Sorceror is better for new players then the Wizard or players, like me who doen't want to do that. Every spell chosen by the Sorceror has great meaning, to a wizard its just another option. The Sorceror is the Green Lantern to Wizards Batman's. [/QUOTE]
