well admittedly I don't have him maxed but my 2/pally rest sorc is a ball to play... saving throws are admittedly kinda ridiculous... and the sp really arn't that bad.... unfortunately you do lose two points of spell pen but that's really about it... here if you wanna check him out ... has good umd ... decent hp blah blah... all the things you would want from a spell caster... plus a good weapon selection when in a pinch.. (great for soloing) really the only thing that I feel like I miss out on is I don't get any lvl 9 spells till lvl 20 total... but if you do roll it... I would definitly try and get lvl 8 sorc asap ... firewall can carry you a long way while your still trying to flesh things out
