Ok, so I am playing a sorc in RoR and our DM has decided to allow 3 traits total. I am taking Magical Heritage (of course), he is allowing traits from anything published for PF (within reason), so I am also taking Metamagic Master. For the third I am having a hard time deciding. I am looking at either Reactionary (+2 init) or the campaign trait Outlander> Loreseeker. Which do you guys suggest and if it is Loreseeker, which 3 spells do you think it would work best with?


Greetings all. I am new to PF so learning this as I go. (Not to D&D, just out of the loop for a few years.) We have a group starting up soon and I am trying to decide exactly which way to go here. Currently AFAIK, we have a kender rog, another rog, a vanilla cleric, a ranger and a tank type. Unfortunately I am not quite sure of details on most of them at this point. Tank will likely be a pally or fighter. In any case as you can see we are severely arcane light. I don't care for wizards as I hate having to try and pick and choose what spells to mem for each day. Not to mention a severe lack of slots at each level to cast them. I prefer the "on the fly" versatility of a sorcerer. However, since they are limited in spell selection, I am not sure if a sorc could fill the arcane slot of the party effectively. I was seriously considering taking a Sylvan variant to add another decent melee/tank(ish) toon by way of Boon Companion + Enlarge person + pet, but the Magus/Bladebound looks like a viable alternative as well, (though not quite as tankable). (And as I sit here and type this I realize I have more melee in the party than I thought. Not sure if an "Enlarged" pet would be of great benefit?) In any case, I was hoping to garner some opinions or alternate viewpoints on the problem.

My 2nd question is trait suggestions for the above toons. I have seen plenty of guides mentioning feats/spell selections, but very few seem to touch on the traits. We will be playing "Rise of the Runelords" if it helps at all.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
