Okay, so I know someone posted a thread similar to this recently (I even commented on it) but my search for a new character is more refined than that post. I need a new Arcane Spontaneous Caster (not a Bard).
For some background My lvl5 Sorcerer was eaten by Gibbering Mouther (it was so sad because I was rolling around in its pile of gold before it popped out of no where and swallowed me whole) and I need an new character. We have a Cleric, Magus, Alchemist, and a Dwarf so I really wanted someone that can be the primary Arcane Caster (I hate prepared casting by the way).
What can you recommend? I am fine with being a Sorcerer again and any and all material is allowed within reason (no Drow Nobles and the like) and 3PP material is okay with gm approval.
My first Sorcerer was fun but it was a really bad build but it was so fun. I was a Fey blooded Tiefling that focused on enchantment spells. I had no Dex and an even worse Str, and would like to remedy the no Dex (I'm fine without Str). I would like a better character this time. So what ideas do you have for me?
Edit: It has to be a 5lvl character and the only thing not allowed is the Gunslinger (we are playing a Homebrew where guns are common so Gunslingers don't quite fit in). I would also be fine with a none Arcane Caster, my only worry is that if I go Oracle or something similar the Cleric will completely outshine me. Basically I want an offensive spell caster.
The choice seems limited to another sorcerer, if you are to be a arcane, spontaneous primary caster.
You could try out a summoner, but that would be less focus on spell casting, more melee with a touch of buffing/utility spells.
A Synthesist at venerable age can min-max his ability scores to the ridiculous. Having 1 in Str, Dex, and Con is not a problem when you eidolon is on (which it should be, from the first waking moment). With a starting wisdom of 23, a Monk level could give you an excellent AC boost, and Master of Many Styles 1 could give you crane style and wing.
But that is me, building a character that is mostly Melee Tank, with a range of arcane spontaneous spellcasting options on the side.
Not really what you asked for, so I'll just stop it there.
There are a few sorcerer blaster threads floating around or if you are looking for something a little different a friend of mine is rather enjoying the word caster rules as a sorcerer.
