[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 2642735, member: 2011"] No, your point is that you will ignore the logic that refutes your position. The fact is that Sorcerers should be able to acquire scrolls just like Wizards should be able to acquire the components to scribe scrolls. One should not be rare and the other common. Hence, for the same money that Wizards are using to scribe scrolls and put spells in their books, Sorcerers should be able to find/purchase scrolls that they want. If you are going to play the "scribe scroll" card for Wizards, you have to also play the "purchase scroll" card for Sorcerers. Granted, a given DM might make it difficult for a Sorcerer to do this, but a fair and equitable DM will make it about as difficult for a Sorcerer to acquire scrolls as it is for a Wizard to acquire the material components required to scribe scrolls. In fact, it should be easier to acquire scrolls due to the vast amounts of money to be made by NPC Wizards willing to scribe scrolls. That should be a very lucrative business. In a fairly equitable game, this makes Sorcerers nearly as versatile as Wizards and actually makes them more powerful overall in many ways. What is good for the goose is good for the gander. The fact that you have ignored it since it disagrees with your philosophy on the subject, when it was mentioned several times now in this thread, does not make it invalid. It just means that you are ignoring it. You have repeatedly stated your opinion that Wizards should have scrolls to shore up their weaknesses, but you ignore the fact that Sorcerers should have scrolls to shore up their weaknesses. That is faulty logic. [/QUOTE]
