[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 1083437, member: 1465"] I agree definitely, otherwise someone would surely come up with a book which holds a PrCl that - since the PC is supposed to be high level when getting its spells - have powerful 1st level spells. The problem is already visible with Ranger and Paladin, whose 4th level spells are very good... So the official ruling could restrict her to spell lists of 9 levels of spells? (and everything beyond core classes should in any case require DM's approval, but the DM is me, so no way). Keep in mind anyway that this Sorcerer would have a place in a powered-up setting where every class is slightly tweaked upwards (see my other thread about the Figther). For example, the Wizard would get something more herself - not much actually, I was thinking about a few free Spell Mastery (every 4 levels) and maybe a signature spell (spontaneous casting) every 10 levels. I will make a comprehensive thread with all the classes when I have thought of all of them, or most... I still don't think it would be broken even if every other class stays the same, although it would definitely be better. I think the Sorcerer really knows very few spells, I think at 20th level it's about 30 spells (+ 9 cantrips), so less than 4/level, and every time she would have to give up a good Wizard spell in order to learn something else. The only thing that Wiz spells can't do is healing, and she could pick up 3-4 healing spells, and eventually (if wanted) a few animal-oriented spells from the Druid. I think the problem would be in some spell's specific case, like Divine Power exactly, which is meant for a Cleric and too good for someone with low BAB. [/QUOTE]
