:::Well, sorcerers were already inferior to wizards in essentially every way other than spontaneous casting. Okay, looking back at the actual tables, your variant gives the sorcerer slightly more spells known total than the wizard, so I might have been exaggerating a little, but the wizard's spells known at their highest spell levels (the important levels) compete just fine with the sorcerer's, and the wizard is still better about spell levels and feats. --[[User:Foxwarrior|Foxwarrior]] ([[User talk:Foxwarrior|talk]]) 18:57, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Fishing for thoughts. Does this break the game? Is it a decent change? Does it screw sorcerers over? Is it playable? And for the love of all the gods, can anyone think of a better name? --Ghostwheel (talk) 17:22, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

No. Mana-Based Spellcasting contains this one, and is cooler. Completely. Yes. Prepared Spontaneous Casting? --Foxwarrior (talk) 18:10, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
