A while back in the Core classes thread, we debated how to handle the versatility of the sorcerer/wizard spell list. The best solution we could think of was to simply revise the list, and remove any spells that we thought should be specialist only, or delay some spells by a level or two. The end result is a list that still has the versatility of a generalist, without the same raw power.
This list is the same one bkdubs made (many thanks), but reformatted and grouped by school. Now, there are a few gaps at a few levels, and I'm not sure if we need to fill them or not. Also note that these are core-only spells. If I find the time (and it might be quite a while
), I can try to do a similar list for the Spell Compendium, and perhaps a the Complete Mage and PHB2 later.
