Message: <blockquote data-quote="ConcreteBuddha" data-source="post: 603280" data-attributes="member: 3139">A bunch of reasons why I generally prefer sorcerers:1) I like Charismatic characters. (Leadership is a great feat. Oh yeah, I also dig building strongholds. In addition, my characters tend to be the party leaders.)2) I hate spending real-time to pick which spells my character is going to memorize. (Same reason why I dislike playing clerics and druids. I love psions and bards, too.)3) Oftentimes, my character may use the same spell 10 times a day, whereas some days I need to diversify once or twice. (Example: I have Haste, Slow and Dispel Magic. Most days, I'll just cast Slow 8 times a day. Sometimes, however, I'll need the extra Haste and Dispel Magic. I can't judge beforehand which type of day it will be.)4) I hate my characters lugging around spellbooks.5) +1 Mithral Buckers of Command. Enough said.6) I hate creating scrolls and wands and potions. Can't stand wasting gold and XP. 7) I hate crafting items. Losing XP is a drag. I'd rather have NPCs craft items. More expensive, yes, but who cares? I'd rather be the same level as the rest of the party....A previous poster said that sorcerers were boring. Well, I guess it depends on your playing style. Generally, I tend to think that fighters, barbarians, paladins, and rogues are more boring than sorcerers. Yet, those are my four favorite classes.Besides, a L10 sorcerer has 24 different spells to cast. That is a lot of versatility. Granted, it's not as much as a wizard or cleric, but it sure beats the options of your run-of-the-mill fighter.</blockquote>
