    OK how about this. They are at opposite corners of one of those very small areas (not more than 2, 2 and a half screens wide on my comp) like when you get ambushed. It is an open area. Neither starts buffed *at all*.
    Since sorc spell selection rarely varies if you know what you are doing, be don't need to worry about that. The question is- what HLA's has the F/t chosen? At 4million exp say. Gotta set a standard.

    Another big question is what the sorcerer has in his triggers and contingencies... This largely is dependent of whether he knows what he is up against. I would venture a lot of these normally contain stoneskin and spell protections... not very usefull against a WS/T.

    @chiz65_ My WS/T has UAI, Time Trap x 4 + Loads of Spike Traps. He has no Fighter HLA's because of when he dualed. Being honest that is all he ever needs. I never place the traps arond blue circled enemies but do lure them onto trap areas all the time.
    (Maybe cheese to some but that is what they are there for!)

    What do you mean in the title of the topic:
    "the most powerful"?

    Because if we would drop the WS and S to Irenicus dungeon and let them complete the game, WS/T could finish it in much shorter time. This means he/she is much more effective...

    see, this makes me feel inferior; like I am not taking full advantage of my sorcerer. In most battles she casts chaos so the hackers can step in and cut and slash, or if magic users are present she'll use breach or a higher variant to get their protections down, and then see hacker comment from above. Lots of finger of death and summon fill in the blank. I don't think I use her offensive capabilities well. Or her abilities to assist the group. Any good links out there on sorcerer use/stratagy? (any maybe some on spelling and typing )

    There's a sorcerer's guide here (near the bottom)

    As for spelling and typing, you could check with Arabwel. :p :lol:
