30 Day D&D Challenge – Day 3
Favourite playable class
I’ve always had a soft spot for the magic using classes, mainly the arcane not the divine wielder. That’s not to say that I haven’t played clerics or the like but I could never really plan ahead to master the strategy of spell selection. For the main part the cleric doesn’t get the respect they deserve; if there are no undead to be had then you get treated as a walking healing machine.
For a long time I played wizards, I could understand the spell strategy required and it was easier to select what spells to memorise for each day. When 3rd edition appeared I was still looking at wizards and the fact you got a familiar to start with.
It wasn’t until a short time later I decided to try the new sorcerer class and I’m glad I did. I felt that what you sacrificed in additional spells was compensated by the fact you could cast whatever one you needed at the time and the bloodlines gave you more definition of the sorcerers personality.
