Sorc 11 vs Sorc 12. What's the difference?

[Soft Lockpick]

I'm looking at some online content and as far as I can tell you gain no class features, no subclass features in the good subclasses, no spells known, and no spell slots.

It does show ability score increase at 12 but that might be tied to class level. Unclear.

So, is there even a reason to not dip one level on this class?

Level 12 is feat/ASI for every class, feat/asi are directly tied to class level.

Ok. So not nothing but also possible the multi is just better anyway. Since by that point you should've already maxed your main ability score.

You can also get a feat. So it comes down to either a feat in that case or what you can pick up from a level of multiclassing. But be aware if you don't already know, you don't get everything when you pick up another class.

I'm not sure how accurate this still is but it tells you what you get when doing so.

number of spell slots between 11 and 12 is the same tho you may be missing out on 1 or 2 known spells, and all 3 available bloodlines dont get anything special at 12(all 3 get their 'last' bloodline feats at 11)

but as the other person said you will be missing out on a feat/ASI if dipping, and as a caster you definitely want at least 1 ASI to up your casting stat and then either a 2nd one or a half feat to get that casting stat 20 or smth like war caster or maybe spell sniper?
sorcerers get to enjoy starting out with con save proffiency tho so they dont need to spend a feat on resilient(war caster would be nice tho, advantage AND profficiency on concentration checks is nice)

Resilient Dexterity, Magic initiate, Elemental Adapt, Spell Sniper and a few other feats to consider. https://baldursgate3.wiki.fextralife.com/Feats

If you don't have the PHB handy the basics are covered here:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/classes/sorcerer
and
https://roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Sorcerer#content

ofc it doesn't have all subclasses etc, as it's only the SRD ( or what ever they call the open license these days )

Still it seems you trade in an ASI and a sorcery point
