But even if we give them credit for even more spells known in such canpaigns, besides being a technical point in the wizards favor does it actually move the needle on whether the sorcerer is better or worse in such a campaig? I don’t think so. To do that the wizard would need all of the above and regular information access about what they will encounter days in advance so they will be able to prepare it. Then finally there’s the idea of value above replacement. In combat situations there may often be a technically better spell but usually one of the staple prepared spells a wizard has will perform well. There often isnt much to gain from a specific perfect spell being prepared for combat, though it’s certainly not valueless either.</blockquote>
