sorcerer number of spell slots

[Jrstevenson07]

I heard somone say that humans and drow get more spell slots than warforged. I like the idea of getting 4 level 6 spells. can anyone confirm or refute this?

Thanks

nope, same amount for all races, you will get more slots as you level

You wont have all access to spells if your charisma is too low. I never heard of any race being inherently limited.

Consider it refuted.

Also, who was it that told you this? I'd like to Icy Pris--- err, I mean give them a snow cone.

I think the confusion likely arises from the fact that most wf casters will take repair spells. Since a lot of fleshy casters do not take any of the repair line, they have more slots for spells other than repair. Ie. Fleshy casters trade repair for offensive spells.

That is a fallacy, whoever told you that is lying to you.

Yeah I think it has something to do with that.. Non-PM wf should always take reconstruct as a level VI spell. That means there's only 2 left to go with. Non-wf or whatever-PM can skip reconstruct freeing an extra spell slot. That means 3 spells to choose.

It's a bit same as saying PM only gets 3 level IV spells because death aura and negative energy burst shouldn't be skipped.

Not saying wf/non-wf/pm/non-pm gets more or less spells, just trying to figure out logic behind this. With all this said, I think most casters carry reconstruct anyhow as a raid utility.

Pale Masters =/= Sorcerers. Besides, Pale Masters are Wizards - they could swap for Reconstruct whenever, regardless of race.

As for non-WF Sorcerers not taking Reconstruct... possible? Yes. But I've seen people kicked from VoD/ToD groups for not having it.

I was talking about logic, not even about classes or races..

Whereas the discussion in question is specifically about one class, and three races. So your comment was rather out of place.

Well OP asked if a non-wf caster gets more spells from level 6. I was reasoning logic behind such accusations. If you aren't interested on my thoughts on this, ignore rather than take this out of topic. Please lets stay on subject.

EDIT: Just to make this clear. For level 6 spells, I was talking about sorcerer. Only used wizard level 4 spell slots for a PM as an example and made clear that I'm not talking about all WF.

Really?

ROFL never heard of this happening on GLand - and I see significant retardation every day I log on.

I don't but most of the sorcerers I've met during past years usually have it.

"If the Suulomades tank is Warforged, and has no AC, they will get hit. And cursed.

It is more convenient to have a single arcane, especially one with a high SP pool (read:Sorcerer) alternate between Reconstruct Scrolls, and use SP to Recon when necessary.

In VoD, if a Sorcerer isn't helping repair, what are they doing - Cloudkill? If that's all I need, I'll go craft a bunch of Tier II aspect of Ooze clickies."

... Or, such is the train of thought that has been used. Not saying I agree or disagree with it, just saying that is the "popular opinion" on Sarlona, and I don't see the U9 changes changing people's attitudes too soon.
