[QUOTE="orchid blossom, post: 1586017, member: 12815"] It all depends on how you play it. I've found with a little forethought in spell selection, and now the ability to swap out spells, the sorcerer can have plenty of versitility. My sorcerer character has been the most powerful in the group since level 1, and still arguably is. Only our melee monster fighter deals more damage. Plus, considering the ability to cast the same spell over and over, there really isn't much need to take more than one or two combat spells per level. The rest fill in with utility spells. Anyway, I imagine DM's use sorcerers because there is just less bookeeping involved. Wizard characters can still get treasure from sorcerers in the form of wands and scrolls, as long as the DM is cognizant of the fact that they need to remember no spellbooks are getting handed out.
