[QUOTE="bmcdaniel, post: 606576, member: 1772"] [b]Re: The best thing about sorcerers...[/b] Bah, I played a game where the sorceror ruined everything. It was supposed to be a heavy roleplaying game set in the forgotten realsms, but his constant powergaming turned it into a combat heavy, tactical assault style game. The sorceror did nothing but cast energy-substituted sonic fireballs at everything in sight. He'd never let us talk to the monsters or sneak around their cave/complex. He went into every fight flying, improved invisible, polymorph-selfed as a dragon, with true seeing, blah, blah blah. Not only that but he insisted that we all crawl into a portable hole while he teleported around. This sorceror took one level in the mindbender prestige class just to gain the telepathy ability and skill boosts - he didn't want to to take a second level because he'd lose a level of spellcasting! and he never talked to any monsters anyway, all he would do is throw fireballs! The worst of it was that we had to start powergaming just to try to keep competitive with him! So, since a sorceror is so obviously a munchkin's class I can only conclude that if you like sorcerors then you must also be a munchkin. Are you a munchkin? -Brian [/QUOTE]
