Outside of that it's pretty clear in the PHB that you can't go Level 1 Wizard/Level 11 Sorc and scribe all spells through level 6 and then cast them with Sorcerer spell slots. I mean it's complete nonsense.
This statement already proves that you dont undestand how 5e works.
There is no such thing as "sorcerer spell slots".
You get spell slots according to your spellcaster level.
Pure spellcasters (Bard, Cleric, Druid, Sorcerer, Wizard) give you one spellcaster level per level.
Paladin and Ranger give you a spellcaster level for every second level.
The Fighter subclass Eldritch Knight and the Rogue subclass Arcane Trickster give you a spellcaster level for every third level.
Only these spellcaster levels give you slots, nothing else.
And by the way, Warlock by the way is treated completely separately, and dont give you spellcaster levels. Well, at least according to the original rules.
And by the way a Sorcerer 11 / Wizard 1 will not cast sorcerer spells when they cast wizard spells either. They will cast Wizard spells. That means the DC depends upon intelligence, not charisma. Additionally, the number of readied wizard spells also depends upon intelligence, not charisma. Its much weaker than people seem to assume. A Sorcerer 11 / Wizard might realistically at most have Int 16, so they can only ready 4 wizard spells total.
And I repeat myself, but Page 114 is not unclear of the meaning. You can learn spells from scrolls if you have slots for it. And there are only spell slots. Not wizard spell slots or sorcerer spell slots or anything like that. You get spellslots from spellcaster level and no other source. Thats how 5e managed to allow multiclass spellcasters in the first place.
The other statement is a more general statement, not a specific one, and really refers to how to levelup.
But honestly its really tiring how the exact same discussion is repeated again and again and again.
PHB Pg 114, 2nd paragraph
“Copying a Spell into the Book. When you find a wizard spell of 1st level or higher, you can add it to your spellbook if it is of a spell level you can prepare and if you can spare the time to decipher and copy it.”
PHB pg 164, spellcasting, 2nd paragraph
“Spells Known and Prepared. You determine what spells you
know and can prepare for each class
individually, as if you were a single-classed member of that class. If you are a ranger 4/wizard 3, for example, you know three 1 st-level ranger spells based on your levels in the ranger class. As a 3rd-level wizard, you know three wizard cantrips, and your spellbook contains ten wizard spells, two of which (the two you gained when you reached 3rd level as a wizard) can be 2nd-level spells. If your Intelligence is 16, you can prepare six wizard spells from your spellbook.
What saddens me about this discussion is that the DnD community long since ruled on this sort of stuff years ago. If you had done even a basic google search you would have learned that. yet even then, the rules are SUPER clear. You treat each class as an individual spellcasting class, with the rules for that class specific to the class and level.
It LITERALLY gives you an example in the PHB of what I am talking about.
- Sorcerer and Wizards have wholly different spell lists. In short Wizards have more spells available to them
- The way that Sorcerers and Wizards KNOW spells is completely different. You cannot, as a Sorcerer KNOW, a Wizard spell above the Wizard class level you are.
- That you use INT to cast a Wizard spell with a Sorcerer spell slot is irrelevant. You shouldn't be able to use a Sorcerer spell slot to cast a Wizard spell and then apply Metamagic to it.
- Nor should you be able to do Wiz 1/Cleric 11 and learn ALL the wizard spells and cast them with a Cleric spell slot - regardless of if you use intelligence.
Finally.
LARIAN Confirmed that this is an exploit and that it will be fixed in a future patch. I can share the email, but I would prefer not to go through all that trouble of scraping personal data off the fucking thing.
