is there anyway to make a sorcerer that uses light armor with melee weapons?
I tried doing that, but it just feels like a wizard with a few quirks.
Githyanki or dwarf, eventually you can help the low charisma with Volo's eye (stealing it still works if you don't mind the cheese). Alternatively you could forego the armor and make a draconic drow sorcerer. I think one of the dragons gets you the armor of agathys spell, then you could choose false life (if it stacks) to help a bit with hps in combat. Drow get proficiency with rapiers and short swords (not sure about scimitars?).
I am currently playing a wild magic sorcerer and so far it has been lots of fun, looks like it is going to be my favourite class. Even found a reference to the original BG2 wild mage in dialogue with Gale.
