SP Enhancement question

[Yaga_Nub]

Since Sorceror have so much mana available to them has anyone dropped the Mana enhancement line completely so they can pick up another damage line (i.e Fire/Cold and Acid/Lightning)? Or if you did, did you pick up other enhancements besides the elemental damage enhancements.

I would be very hard pressed to drop the first two tiers of Energy of the Dragonblood. My current sorcerer resides at tier three of Energy of the Dragonblood... but being the AP I took out of the fourth tier went towards Improved Heighten I don't think it really counts.

Are you thinking of dropping the third tier enhancement?

I doubt it. There aren't a whole lot of things that currently outweighs the use of those 40 SP for the cost of the AP.

[Solmage]

I've dropped the third tier mana enhancement, and I don't miss it one bit. I would not drop the first 2 however.

i have only the first three dragonblooded and have a good balance in both fire/ice and acid/elec. All three spell pen enhancements took what might have gone into the fourth dragon blooded, but MrCow hit upon something there with improved Heighten. Heighten is always on and those dc spells are cast alot. I have to wonder if the 3rd spell pen enhancement might be better spent there.

I dropped Ball Lightning so I dropped the related enhancements
I stepped back my fire/cold enhancements just a bit
Then took these
Imp Emp 2
Imp Height 2
Imp Max 3
Spell Pen 2
Mana 3
Charisma 3

I'm trying to play the middle road -- I have heightened web, solid fog, ray of enfeeb., enervate, waves of exhaustion scrolls, but I still have, dancing ball, FoD, hold monster, flesh to stone, etc... SP, and GSP.

[MrWizard]

since i do not get mana feats....no. I always get the enhancements.

[Desteria]

I droped all but the frist level the first elvel is highly eficent AP to SP gain, i also droped both feats.

I did the math on on an Average tank of SP I would begaining more 'efective SP' but taking the varius metamagic reducers for the same AP cost.
