[QUOTE="MoonSong, post: 6369062, member: 6689464"] Undersupported, having too few options. Not a new happening just compare 4e compendium, there are over 400 wizard powers and barely 250 sorcerer powers. A 4e wizard can strike for way more punch than any sorcerer could-basically outperforming them in their job-. A 3.5 wizard with all splat involved can basically cast spontaneously from a spellbook, but don't dare to give sorcerers even a few more spells known because it would break the game... And versatile is not the same as flexible, yes sorcerers in 5e are more flexible to a certain extent, but have been denied all the world-changing magic that wizards still wield and it is harder to build any kind of non-blaster. And it is a lie that a sorcerer can cast more spells than a wizard. First because wizards have ritual casting, and a thing called arcane recovery oh and once they hit 18th level they can cast some low level spells at-will and their capstone is an extra third level slot. Couple this with more spells available at any point and a way wider spell selection, a wizard is indeed more versatile and more powerful overall. [/QUOTE]
