[QUOTE="Pax, post: 906364, member: 6875"] Let's assume an 18 starting intelligence of 18, and core rules only. At 10th level, the wizard will have: Level 1: 7 first level spells (3+Int Modifier) Level 2: +2 1st level spells Level 3: +2 2d level spells Level 4: +2 2d level spells Level 5: +2 3d level spells Level 6: +2 3d level spells Level 7: +2 4d level spells Level 8: +2 4d level spells Level 9: +2 5d level spells Level 10: +2 5d level spells Thus, the wizard knows: [code][color=white] Level Number 1 9 2 4 3 4 4 4 5 4 [/color][/code] Now, IDHMBWM but ... the Sorceror wont know fewer TOTAL spells thanthat, by much.' For your assertation to be correct, and for the Wizard to have "10-15" ... let's call it 12, on average ... he'd need +3 1st level, and +8 of eachlevel after that. Purely in terms of treasure value ... that's a LOT of gold "spent" on those spells. If you and I were to make 10th level characters... you'd have to sink a goodly amount of money into those spells. Just the scrolls/spellbooks alone would be worth 9,475gp. Then, eithr lot of scribing, or, 9,000gp for a BBB and SOME scribing, or, 18,000gp for TWO BBB's. We're looking at almost 30,000gp. Money the Sorceror can invest elsewhere. And again, I did specify "other than researched spells and captured spellbooks" ... so my statement is STILL absolutely factually correct. [/QUOTE]
