[QUOTE="Tyberious Funk, post: 609401, member: 9550"] To all you wizard fans out there - wow, I can't believe how much time you must have on your hands. When my wizzy hit 17th level (oh, the excitment of having 9th level spells) I found myself begging the party to take a few weeks off while he took time to scribe a few new spells. After much convincing, I managed to get just enough time to scribe a few 9th level spells, whilst rounding out my lower level spell collection. I'm still woefully short of the supposed wonderous 'flexibility' that the wizard offers. I live in fear and dread that my spell books will get damaged, lost or stolen. Sure, I could rebuild them (heck, I got the cash) but the *TIME* it would take would just about kill me. My party pretty much adventures 24/7. The DM keeps waxing lyrical about Epic Spells (which wont be too far off) and I keep thinking "Man, I really need to beef up my selection of 3rd level spells first". I also find I spend a lot of RL time on my wizzy as well. Before major adventures or battles, scanning through spell lists trying to get the best value mixture of offence, defence and flexibility. I look at our party bard that selects a couple of spells each level and then doesn't have to worry any further... *sigh* Don't get me wrong - I love my wiz and I think the class is excellent. But the sorcerer has it's advantages too. It just isn't totally explicit in the rules. [/QUOTE]
