[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7178228, member: 6670153"] People are focused on the metamagic and one subclass feature of the sorceror, but its Font of Magic that makes the Sorceror a Sorceror, the rest is just an extension of that and the origin. Instead of spending the Sorcery points on metamagic, the Sorceror can spend them on say creating extra 5th level spells, far more then the Wizard has excess too if the Sorceror burns lower level spell slots for sorcerory points. If it comes down to a duel between an 18 level Sorceror and an 18 level Evocation Wizard, as long as the Sorceror is willing to burn all the fuel they have then Sorceror is going to win, the evocation Wizard has more staying power over more encounters, but less then the Warlock, but of the Sorceror is all in on a spell blasting duel the Wizard most likely is going to lose most of the time. Still the fact that you have reduced the Sorceror to the Blaster class shows you really don't understand the Sorceror at all. Wizards weilds magic, the Sorceror IS magic, and that magic is turned to their origins, which shapes that. So the Sorceror isn't the best at blasting, the Dragon Sorceror is the best at being like a Dragon, which do more then blasting, but still blast really well. The Favoured Soul is the best at being an Angel/Fiend/Divine Aspect. The Stone Sorceror is that best at being, well a Swordmage, he really should be renamed the Metal Sorceror. The Phoenix Sorceror is the best at being like a Phoenix. The Tempest Sorceror is the best at being the Storm. The Wild Sorceror is the best at creating Chaos. The Sea Sorceror is the best at being the Sea. The Shadow Sorceror is the best at being a creature of Shadow. They are also good at bending and manipulating the spells they have in ways no one else can. So respective origin and Font of Magic sums up to what. Sorceror is. So their role can be simply summed up as Blaster, Tank, Buffer, Healer, or whatever, there roles is manipulator of magic and being more then human. [/QUOTE]
