Only real lack there are the bonus feats (and some skill points/class skills), the sorcerer should have those, too, really.  A warmage with Arcane Disciple (Competition) would be pretty nasty, or not? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Can they make use of that feat? I guess it would be pretty damn good in any case as they automatically get all the spells as spells known. Heh. Just spend 3-4 feats on Arcane Disciple. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />  Bye Thanee</blockquote>
