If you are going to frequently make use of this, you should build something similar into the other classes.If you take a Fighter's sword, he is not negated because 1) he probably has another weapon and 2) he can just pick up another sword and wield it just as well.All the other spellcasters do not have such a requirement for their magic. Its not like a regular weakness. Its a unique to the Wizard class glaring cheap easy way to completely destroy a person's character without actually killing them. And its really there mostly for flavour. So to me doing this...especially with any frequency...is usualy just going to be because you dont like Wizards or you dont like the player playing the wizard.My overall point was that because of this, to me its not a big point of relevency to the Sorcerer/Wizard debate, because 1) its basically a design flaw and 2) the use of it as anything other than a plot device, to me at least is a sign of problems.Getting back on the actual topic.. This is true, but overall the Wizard has more and greater advantages. Basically, a Sorcerer who knows a niche spell will be at a bit of an advantage over a wizard because they can access it at any time. But the idea that Sorcerers are going to be able to access more spells at any given time, spontaneously, than Wizards is simply incorect. A Wizard can generally prepare at any given time as many or more spells of a given level than a Sorcerer knows</blockquote>
