In any game I've played a Sorcerer in, no one will play a Wizard to disprove me. I keep hoping.I refuse to play a Wizard, I feel they're so disabled. I also realize that's my opinion vs a fact. I'm sure one could build a competent Wizard if one could predict with certainty more than one or two spells per day that would be useful.I have seen many Clerics who have to prepare like a Wizard. Usually they can at least burn their prepared junk spells for some curative spells, so at least the slots don't go wasted.The only Wizard worth a hoot, IMO, is an Illusionist or a Transmuter, since their spells are either flexible or buff (in that order). In my experience, the only time a Wizard is superior is if the character somehow knows in advance exactly what spells he will need.While the Wizard can supplement his castings with Wands, the Sorcerer can do the same. Also true for scrolls, etc. My 5th level Sorcerer has a small cache of Sleep scrolls left over from low levels... gotta sell them now that I'm getting closer to 8th. We don't want for a Wizard in that party of eight.Greg</blockquote>
