Message: <blockquote data-quote="Petrosian" data-source="post: 612569" data-attributes="member: 1149">The sorcerer CLASS is a generic one. Like the fighter it models a very simple design with little presupposition. Like the fighter class, the flavor is supposed to come from the players. Like the fighter it comes to you in the definition of the character's personality, in his feats, in his skills, in his spell selection and finally in how he acts and reacts and plays.While the net is rife with ultimate sorcerer spell list and homogenized sorcerer mega-min-maxes types, i have not seen these "all the same" sorcerers in play. i have had one under me as a PC for 12 levels, played one of my own, and see three others in local play.Not one of the five was anything like the others.Each one had different skill choices and different feat choices and different spell choices. Each had distinct personality and brought different abilities to the party and left different gaps for others to fill in.As far as i can tell, these cookie cutter sorcerers are an artifact of internet discussion boards and not an in play common event.The fact that the class does not provide you with flavor for your character... let me repeat that... doesn't make presupposed decisions about YOUR CHARACTER... is not to me a CLASS flaw in need of correcting.</blockquote>
