[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7535817, member: 6919838"] I would say that having pkayed wild magic and divine soul sorcs as player and others i ran as NPC while GMing, i think except for your Hound you are seeing the overall lacks in the sorc class. Prepper classes **generally** PREPARE stat modifier plus level spells out of more known. Many also have a pair of free spelks every odd levels thru 9th, meaning they are frequently PREPARING almost twice as many as sorc knows. Even if there are enough thematic spells its hard to get openings to takr them. Sure metamagic is potent but not very thematic or really to me interesting. Divine Soul and Shadow are abt the only very interedting ones in core products tho the Runechild in Taldorei seems also quite interesting and thematic. Note - i do not brlieve sorc is underpowered - it can build to sttong outputs - just that its a uninspiring set of mechanics for a rich concept. Honestly, if sorcerer had gotten Invocations and Warlocks had gotten meta-magic (instead of the ones they have now) I think both would have benefitted. [/QUOTE]
