Hi Playground,
I could use some advice on my Divine Soul Sorceror. I'm a CG Tiefling with stats 8/14/14/12/11/16. Other party members are a Paladin (Devotion or Ancients I think), a Fighter, a Fighter/Rogue I think, and a Draconic Sorceror. I just hit level 4; the other party members are all level 3 but on the cusp of level 4 because reasons.
Current spells known are Thaumaturgy; Guidance; Spare the Dying; Firebolt; Mage Hand; Healing Word; Cure Wounds; Sanctuary; Suggestion and Enhance Ability. Metamagic: Twinned, Subtle. We just found a wand of Magic Missile and it's been handed to me because the other sorceror is already a blaster.
I've just hit level 4 and am wondering what to do with myself. In the past we've had some deadly fights and I've felt good about my self-assigned role as primary healer, picking people up off the ground including two at once with Twinned Healing Word. But lately we've been a bit more resilient, and other party members have ended up doing much of the talking so Subtle Suggestion / Enhance Ability hasn't gotten as much use as I'd hoped, although I have done some supporting with that if we've seen a social situation coming up in advance.
Basically I still want to be a decent healer but I wouldn't mind doing more in combat than just spamming Firebolt while I wait for allies to fall down. What would you do with my ASI, what new spell would you learn, and which if any spell would you switch out? I'm contemplating picking up Lesser Restoration and switching out Cure Wounds for Bless; Bless is powerful, but with it taking up my concentration slot, I'm not (for example) doing any crowd control. And how important is it that someone in the party (it will have to be me at least until the Paladin hits level 5) has Lesser Restoration? Currently we've been facing a wide mix of monster types but the campaign antagonists seem to be a dragon cult, so mostly kobolds and humans so far, with some goblinoids thrown in I believe.
Thanks!
