Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shardstone" data-source="post: 8128869" data-attributes="member: 6807784">I find it amusing how Defcon acts like if you don't play his way, then you're playing the game wrong and he's basically better than you.That aside, if Tasha's did ANY of the following things, spell versatality would not be needed:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Give the PHB and Xanathar's archetypes an expanded spell list and the ability to swap those spells out to different schools, ala Aberrant/Clockwork.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Expand both the sorcerer's base spell list (they did, should have went further) AND how many spells a sorcerer can know.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Give sorcerers a bunch of unique spells.</li> </ul>Any of these things addresses what is the "core" issue for the sorcerer as I see it - its magical options are limited, and metamagic doesn't do enough to make it feel like it isn't limited.For reference, I played a Sorcerer into a two-year long Chult campaign. I used the Spell Point variant in the DMG. And while it was fun, the lack of spells I had to choose from for casting was sorely felt. I am a story oriented player and game designer, so much like Defcon, I trust my opinion to be accurate. The Sorcerer, for me, and for people I run and play games with, is not that fun because of the knife stuck through its spells known and the limited choice of spells.Wonder how much anecdotal evidence this thread needs before people start saying anecdotal isn't worth anything.</blockquote>
