I think the reason for WF as battlesorc is the ability to heal (repair) really, eally fast in the heat of battle. Not sure if wands/scrolls would keep up. A battlecleric or bard with quicken, on the other hand...

What he said.

As someone who plays a battle sorc most of the time I am logged on, I can't stress enough how awesome it is to be able to fully heal yourself with the click of a button (even with massive HP). No gear swapping, no stepping back to wand/scroll whip, just BAM - full health.

Ultimately play what you think will be fun though - there's no reason you can't be a drow (the thing that bothers me most about them is CON though). If you can't self heal it is a slight disadvantage, but realistically it isn't any worse than most traditional tanks.

If you want to get in the thick of it with a d4 class without much in the way of defense, you need to be able to heal yourself. Wf is the way to do that.
