Someone (name escapes me) wrote an article in Dragon magazine several years ago on how to play an effective RQ3 sorcerer. basic tips were learn Summon/Dominate/Bind spells for INT & POW spirits early, then move on to Magic spirits while keeping your INT free andbuidling up your skills with your other spells. Until Sandy's Sorcery came along, i used to hand a copy of that article to anyone who wanted to play a sorcerer, and tell 'em "This works. It takes forever, but eventually you'll eat Storm Bulls for breakfast."
