[QUOTE="Ashrym, post: 7864246, member: 6750235"] Except clerics, druids, paladins, and now artificers have access to their entire class spell list tomorrow. That's not a wizard concept. Spell preparation is just a broad category of spell casting style. The unique part is the spell book concept and that hasn't changed. If these optional rules make it into a published form then I imagine people will house-rule what they want. I don't agree with the premise that wizards somehow solely own swapping spells. It's too broad among too many classes to make that claim. Limiting something that won't be used much seem pointless as well. What difference does it make if a sorcerer removes spells from the sorcerer list he or she would never take anyway? What is that particular area of emphasis? Sorcerers are a wizard alternative. Seeking their help instead of a wizard also makes sense. It's still not like spell versatility lets them swap out a lot of spells at the request of someone who shows up at their doorstep. It does give the "come back tomorrow" opportunity if it's a single spell needed, similar to the wizard in that case. I still think that reinforces the sorcerer identity as an arcane spellcaster instead of removing the wizard identity because they have similar identities in that regard. [/QUOTE]
