[QUOTE="Tuzenbach, post: 1389404, member: 16155"] I've no idea what "weave" magic is, but how about this? If a spell is cast upon a Sorcerer he's 80% likely to learn it from the experience. In instances where it's impratical to learn a spell from "feeling" it, he can try to learn the spell from "seeing" or observing it in action. In this case, the Sorcerer has a chance to learn it equal to his charisma + his level or whatever. "Learning" a spell equates to successfully casting the spell. Thus, if a Sorcerer wants to learn *magic missile* (and has been struck by one in the past), he attempts to cast it. Failure means that one spell slot has been used up for that day. Success means that he's learned the spell. Of course, since it's impractical to learn a spell in combat, this may make things even more interesting for the Sorcerer. Perhaps every failed attempt at casting a spell grants an improved percentage on all further attempts at learning it? I'm thinking yes......... [/QUOTE]
