My Three Favorite Sorcerer Subclasses in Pathfinder 2e - Getting the Most out of Your Sorcerer Build

Alright, the sorcerer is a SUPER popular class amongst Pathfinder 2e players, but there are so many Bloodline subclasses and not all of them are built equally. In this video we talk about how to get the most out of your sorcerer's Blood Magic abilities and the spells offered to them through their Bloodline. We'll take a look at three sample builds using my favorite subclasses and ancestries for the Sorcerer class.

That Harrow Sorcerer actually fits perfectly for a build I've been toying around with. I tend to overlook the Sorcerer, so thanks for the reminder.

I like the narrative options that are opened up by an Imperial sorcerer's visions of their ancestors' lives. I just have to be careful not to take it too far and annoy my other players by making the sorcerer the main character.

Will be interesting to see if Player Core 2 does anything for the sorcerer bloodlines, particularly some of the more lackluster focus spells!

An obvious and easy fix given the excellent rework the witch got, elemental is naturally getting an upgrade with the additions of metal and wood.

Sadly, the only changes sorcerers will be getting in PC2 is a) each bloodline can get new passives as they level up, b) Elemental bloodline will be changed due to the changes to elements in RoE, and c) Dragon bloodline will be changed due to the changes to dragons in the remaster. That's it.

The one I don't like is draconic sorcerer. It's the kind of default entry point to sorcerer and encourages new players to make the mistake to focusing on melee. Also Dragons Presence is the best feat ever

The background music reminds me of Gorky 17 videogame

Funny enough, the music was originally written for a video game project some friends were working on that never finished up.

Elemental sorcerer is the first pure spellcaster I'd recommend anyone to play in the system, alternatives anyone?

Should you chage bludgeoning damage of the 3 elements to better matvh the themes. Maybe lightning or cold for air?

Since the sorcerer is supposed to be getting some updates in the player Core 2 book you probably could have waited for that book to release before doing this video

Some of the Bloodlines that you mentioned are Uncommon, which means that they won't be allowed by all gms. For healing/support, I think my favorite is Angelic. For a rebuffing sorcerer, I like Hag.

You don’t mention it, but Unraveling blast also scales pretty crazy at an extra 3d4 per rank. Harrow is pretty strong overall! I do think however Phoenix is the best sorcerer though. Really cool abilities, primal is a great list, and contingency in primal might allow for some crazy shenanigans I haven’t thought of!

Sorcerer is awesome, its whole blood magic mechanic is cool, but I have to admit, most bloodlines are super dull. I mean, +1 bonuses and -1 penalties aren't bad, but they're just kinda boring. And it's heartbreaking that the bloodline with the most interesting blood magic effect, the Phoenix bloodline, is uncommon.

It does make me wonder if that will change in the remaster. Eg. What have Paizo learned since it was first released.

I wish they were like the bloodlines in 1e. They gave you bonus feats and more abilities to make the bloodlines feel like an impactful choice.

0:02 I'm not a super fan of the Sorceror as is. Its quite stock from the 3.5 era. Of course everything has evolved but. Limited spell selection remains a major compromise. That said. If you have reliable access to a staff, and scrolls, I forgive. Spontaneous staves though, do kinda suck in comparison. All that said, I love Warlocks / Kineticist, and they have iconic ally limited spell repertoire. (impulses now) Kineticist is awesome, right now, and that's great. If Sorceror were built from the ground up, by Paizo it might be awesome. Otherwise, I'll stick with Kineticist I think.
