Why did you choose wizard?

[Nemesis]

What was your reason?

Sorcerer's have been significantly buffed in BG3 compared to Tabletop:

Heigtened Spell
- Effects every single target of the spell and not just one creature

Quickened Spell
- Let's you cast two full level spells in one turn instead of a full spell + cantrip

Extended Spell
- Incredibly powerful crowd control spells have been reduced to 2 Turn durations. Extended Spell makes them 4 turns.

I don't know if I can honestly choose Wizard over Sorcerer anymore.

I like the 'innate magic power' part. Some have to study, some are naturals. I prefer to be a natural.

But that means it is confirmed that you can actually twin a fireball? Wow.

Three Fireballs per turn if you Haste yourself first and Quickened Spell.

Twinned Spell still only works with single target spells, though (still overpowered.)

Yeah... Quicken, not twinned. Confused the two. Not sure about Haste though. That is only for weapons attacks as far as I remember unless they changed that also.

Storm sorcerer is pretty fun. my one spell is pretty powerful even at only mid level. The lightening spell that takes out everything in its path. and i found a necklace that charges and it will give your next cast electric spell extra damage. I can also fly when charged up as storm sorcerer which is really great in battle to strategically get to place you may need to be.
I do like that wizards can learn any spell from scrolls though.

I didn't :O i do use gale as my 2nd in command tho, hes usually 80% misses and damage soak since everyone focuses him first.

[EarlOfNoobton]

I always have a wizard in my party, when playing D&D CRPGs, but don't like Gale. :D

Game : you take 17 damage.
Abjuration wizard : "No i don't."

Game : your ally takes 14 damage.
Abjuration wizard : "Nope, scratch that."

Because I can FINALLY cast fireball WITHOUT killing my whole party in the process!

Fireball and Chain Lightning solves any problem, that is why :)
