Having an emotionally unstable character is super fun as a wild magic sorcerer. Like, during a more roleplay like scene, she was braiding her romantic interest's hair (because he had hair for miles). He randomly leaned up and kissed her cheek. DM made me do a con save, which I failed and my poor lady turned into a potted plant. To rub the salt in the wound, the DM rolled what type of flower I was and I got hydrangea. Poor elf boi freaked out and broke the pot, bringing back tiefling girl. A few hours later, they were swimming and the magic in the area was so intense that it was a wild magic zone. DM made me roll on the table... As our characters were being saps, a fucking UNICORN yeets between us from nowhere. Wild Magic is really fun and gets OP at higher levels when you can later choose between 2 rolls on the table.

I have an Aasimar Shadow Sorcerer who his whole thing is “I am a perfect balance of shadow and light,” and all that good great edgy stuff BUT... his personality is that of Napoleon Dynamite. His name is Kevin Holyhell and for the most part he’s a scrawny little shit with the exception of when he goes into angel mode like Aasimar do during which he looks like Fabio. He’s got a brother and sister that are fallen Aasimar and they’re true edgelords who were corrupted by their dark bloodlines. Not Kevin though, he’s still here and not evil, most of the church just wonders why he’s the one they got stuck with.

That makes very little sense, in the grand scheme of things. The reason why there are direct upgrade subclasses is cause all the other classes have a specific side to them that can be expanded naturally. Sorcerers lack that cause the one thing they have that's unique, Metamagic, is very much something that can turn broken if going deeper. For one, I find that it's a good thing that there isn't a direct upgrade cause the Sorcerer isn't as linear as other classes are, it's a claim you can't really control most of the time. But a unique sorcerer spell would be dope

Goblin Slayer is based on DnD so much that the characters are not given names, spellcasters have spell slots, they even fight a Beholder.

I had made a half elf wild mage, and this faulty chaos magic is actually a birth defect from having human blood To explain magic, he was trained by his elven father, and trying to control it. Controlling the magic is his goal in the story. Then to explain all of the physical weapons, his human mother taught him this, and he’s progressively gotten better

Twinned spell on healing? More like "I cast Inflict/Cure Wounds completely safely from 30 feet as a bonus action after casting a normal cantrip"

Just concocted a Divine Soul Sorcerer descended from Zuggtmoy...otherwise known as The Lady of Rot, or referred to as "that mushroom lady". The sorcerer borrows a ton of necrotic spells from the cleric spell list, creating a tiefling with access to a variety of fungal or spore spells...and with metamagics, they are absolutely devastating.

I feel like if they ever re-did the sorcerer adding some of the stuff from the School of Invention UA would make it feel a lot better and be extremely thematic

The MOST FUN character I have (and probably ever will) play was a Wild Magic Sorcerer! He sort of became the party’s ranger and mage. I tried to address lots of things that bothered me about the lack of depth of the class on 5e PHB through an rp approach. So he was this raised by his mage father half-elf who had the best education along with his 5 half-brothers, but who was always better on memorisation and less keen on carrying books that helped only in very specific situations around - although he was very clever. And then he had a planar trip to Feywild where his chaotic magic came from, except he forgot. So suddenly he’s in this forest and he’s a lot more powerful and why doesn’t his leg work properly anymore wait how did he understand a DRUID? WHY IS HE BLUE? He later finds out a hundred years had passed in that forest and his whole personal arch was about discovering what the heck happened to him. Also, he got mistaken for a druid everywhere he went which did cause more trouble than I originally imagined. I just love characters with high Wisdom they can be headaches to DMs. I see lots of people here complaining that the class gets boring through the levels, but it’s all about building your character right. d&d is a lot more than just combat. So only caring about your sorcerer’s Charisma, Constitution and Dexterity might seem like a good idea, but most likely will get boring. Pick up skills and languages. Plan your background. Make a list of spells you want to get - you really have only few chances and want to make it right so planning ahead helps even if you won’t follow strictly - and relate them to your character’s history. Unless your fun really comes from casting immense powerful fireballs, in that case go on.

But rather than preplan everything I just sorta made a joke that spiraled into an endless loop of darker and darker shit. At the end of his life he had been revealed to be a dictator that everyone feared, had mutilated his family, killed off an entire race except for the PC, and had only ever hugged his favorite son once the same day that same son hired another PC to murder me. Honestly it might have a cool and climactic battle had I not taken Alert making his sneak attack not work. I also multiclassed in a Fighter so I had heavy armor and could completely stoomp him with a few empowered Cone of Colds since he tended to roll low. But in the ebd i decided that I didnt want to be a healer anymore and let him kill me only using my non magical lance to attack. And so ended the reign of the Bork.

Well wild magic is the fey bloodline

My DM and I came up with a unique Sorcerer Sub-Archetype. Wild Magic Sorcerer, but the Wild Magic triggers when the Player Character emotes. As in, the charactermust remain emotionless and monotone at all times, or risk their curse of Wild Magic suddenly triggering and causing something random from the table to occur. :-) Think Ben Stein from the Cleareyes commercials or the Teacher from Ferris Beuller's Day Off (both were Ben Stein the actor) but a Wild Magic Sorcere. I flavored him with the Sage - Librarian background and made him a Librarian in a library in Neverwinter. :-P Freaking HILARIOUS!!! :-D

Sorcerer is my favorite class by far. My dm allows us to be proficient in 1 wepon of our choice, so I pick a longsword made of dragon bone. But since bone is much lighter than metal my DM allows it to have the finesse trait. I play variant human that starts with spell sniper feat and pick green-flame blade (the range is 5 feet so it's fair game) which then increases it to 10 feet, then I can spend sorcery points to double the range again making it 20 feet and at 6th level I have an ability to add my charisma modifier to 1 damage dice of a spell related to my damage type (fire). 14th level I get bad ass golden dragon wings and fly within 20 feet of my target and send flaming slashes soaring through the air and absolutely devastate targets with one hell of a badass cantrip combination. And if I were to use the quickend spell sorcery point thing then I can do 2 attacks with it, causing an average (based on my characters stats having +3 dex and +4 cha) of 66 DAMAGE EVERY ROUND WITH A CANTRIP AT 17TH LEVEL!!

Shadow Sorcerer is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me too. I know it’s as painfully edgy as an 8th grader’s OC, but I just love the half-undead aesthetic of it! There’s so much actually good flavor in there.

I've played wild magic and divine soul. Both were huge fun. I think I'll try out storm sorcery next.

Her powers are connected with her emotions so when she feels strongly about something she runs the risk of surging lol. This concept has honestly created some really funny scenes in game I really like playing a sorcerer who has magic surges for that reason. I think one of the funniest scenes the party had from one of her surges was when we were being chased by a group of angry orcs and she got scared and had a surge and turned our tank into a sheep for the few hours lol XD 10/10 recommend playing a character who has magic surges

I love sorcerer, my favorite class. Hands down.

One of my favorite things to do is to use the extended spell meta magic and multiclass into a wizard to see how many buffs I can apply before the DM tries to strangle me from across the table

the best part is a lot of buffs are not concentration buffs so I can cast them with other buffs now imagine a bear totem barbarian with 24 hours of mirror image, long strider, haste, and whatever other buffs I can cram onto said barbarian tell the barbarian to kick ass and chew good berries and that he is all out of good berries

combine this with a few magic items and you have a recipe for creating 24 hour gods

I don't know if you've actually read the metamagic or any of the spells you've mentioned but this really doesn't work. Mirror image has a range of self, haste is concentration so can't be used with any other concentration buff and extended spell only allows you to *double* the time. Considering most buffs last a minute to an hour this results in a maximum duration of 2 hours for most buffs.

Divine Soul sounds really cool

one neat thing about the sorcerer is that once you get access to sorcerer points it is way easier just to keep track of your sorcerer points then your actual spell slots because if you convert an 8th level spell into sorcerer points you can turn it into 8 1st level spell slots meaning you can just treat your sorcerer point pool as spell slots which honestly I think is what wizards of the coast should have done from the get go I actually made a home brewed version of this fairly easily and my players loved it

I've been playing my wild mage Entropy for 2 years, she's level 11 and hasn't killed any party members yet lol. She's a really short, barely adult half orc and kinda the "little sister" trope character, who loves flying around on her broom, dressing up and setting stuff on fire. She has custom armour made from a creature of my DMs creation that we fought and skinned, which is fire resistent- this is pretty uh... Useful. She's such a dumbass. She once refused to fight a cranky fairy dragon that she had to fight because she wanted to keep it. She kept trying to pat it and eventually it got so shitty it bit her and wouldn't let go. She did not manage to tame it lol it was dumb. She's matured a lot since that point after all she and her friends have been through but she's still kinda silly and impulsive. I love her though.

The Wild Mage is amazing I love it

I’ve been playing a Tiefling shadow sorcerer and it is the most fun I’ve ever had (I rarely get to play casters)

Sorcerer isn't about having a large list of spells its about having customized spells that borderline break the magic system in fun ways.

Exactly, sorcerers having a large list of spells would just make the bard and warlock feel utterly useless by comparison.

They do have one unique spell though, Chaos Bolt 1st Level Spell 1d8 damage and you roll another d8 and that changes the element based on the number, and can jump to another target .

I'm so happy that sorcerers are finally getting extra spells

As a divine soul sorcerer, I eventually gained access to Planar Ally. Using Magic Circle and Banishment along with Heightened Spell Metamagic as backups in case things go south, I acted as a middle ground diplomat between a Solar and another PC in our party. He was interested in multiclassing into Warlock, and Me being the main “healer” of the group was starting to weaken a bit. So he settled on the Celestial Patron. Feel Free to steal this idea if you want. It’s pretty fun to use as a Divine Soul Sorcerer because Sorcerers are naturally good at Charisma based skills, making you genuinely love debating with Fey, Fiends, and Celestials all around, asking for information, making deals, etc. It made my party rely on me when it came to getting information. I felt like Harry Dresden throughout the campaign.

Ok I already love sorcerers but now I'm really happy knowing the shadow sorcerer I made will kick ass

Sorcerer is a great multiclass option, for my Fighter character, I plan on multiclassing into a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer at lvl 3, I'm gonna be decended from a Red Dragon and specialize in fire and lightning magic, but seeing how I'm also still a Fighter, I can go ham on my foes with a longsword lol

Hey, just to give you some feedback no one asked for: I really like your voice and the writing is also good. Content is D&D, which I love. Yet I stubbornly refused to click on your videos even though they're getting RECOMMENDED to me because of your thumbnails. Idk what's up with them, but they look rather... Unpleasant, somehow. Also, a thing I would really appreciate in your vids is a little text field somewhere in the corner, specifying the level at which you gain the mentioned ability. Just an idea you might consider if you ever read this comment. Thanks a lot for your vids. ^-^

Divine Soul is my favorite class

I'm a big fan of disabling sorcerer, monk, and battlemaster and making metamagic/wild, maneuvers, and ki things that anyone can learn.

@AZDfox

Anyone can learn maneuvers; it's a feat.

So if you are a storm sorcerer and have twinned haste you can make your two melee tanks supermen with wind soul or use one on yourself to have a max range of 480 ft per round or 250 per round if you wanna attack. Becoming a magical harrier jet with 22-27 AC and adv on dex saves since your "fly spell"(windsoul) no longer requires concentration.

does anyone know where to find that blue dragonborn/half-dragon art from the draconic bloodline bit?

I really liked the video and it hyped me to a point where I'm certain that my next char will definitely be a Sorcerer. I guess that was your main goal for the audience. I also like your voice. It is neither overpitched and annoying, nor underpitched and hard to focus on. (Is "nor" a thing or is it just my pseudocode infested brain?) Bonus points for timestamps in the infobox! But to give you some feedback for improvement there were two things that were a bummer: For a non-native English speaker it was almost a little to fast to compensate everything you said, specially in the parts with stats. Some screentext or variation in narration speed would raise tension and understanding. And second, you overused the spinning picture effect to a point where I looked away and mostly listened. I guess that will sort itself out with a more experience with your editing software. Overall it felt like you really enjoy what you are doing and I did too. I hope you won't get mad for my criticism since I really tried to be objective and cover both sides. Keep doing what you are doing :)

Wild Magic Sorcerer with the optional rules listed in the description basically will make wild magic sorcerers into wheels of fortune at higher levels because literally everything you will be casting will turn magic

Hey Davvy is there a way to make a 5E version of the 3.0 Fleshmage prestige class for sorcerer?

I love your videos. I just subscribed. Can you make a sorcerer that is not dexterous? Or is it super essential?

The Shadow Sorcerer's hound reminds me of Crowley's from Supernatural.

You are amazing, thank u kind sir.

hey the weather sorcerer can trigger rain meaning it can be a drow and override sunlight sensitivity

2:28 _Oh, you know me too well~_

UA Giant Soul Sorcerer is really the best one imo, shame its iconic ability comes in later and its not official. I hope they take inspiration from it for the future subclasses. Some of the others are nice and the wild magic has a special place in my hear- Its just not well made sadly.

Favoured Soul *is* overpowered, do I need evidence? Twin True Ressurection, heightenend contagion, etc

a chaotic neutral Wild magic sorcerer who got sorcerer powers from the deck of many things and has made it his personal quest to find the deck. A good way to piss off a DM who doesn't like unexpected BS
