When I first played the game I maxed out my Mage's Vocation to get the feel of the game and the Magical play style. After that I switched to a Sorcerer. At first I regretted doing that since spells really do take a while to cast but once I saw the power I never changed back. They may take Stamina and Time but they are worth it.

It also entirely depends on your gameplay. If you're offense-oriented like me, then go for it. The way I play my Sorcerer is that I have close-quarters pawn and a Mage with Anodyne and Halidom. And I keep running around and cast my spells from afar. If they get too close, I jump out of the way and start anew. It may take A LOT OF TIME but it worked so well against enemies even as large as a Drake, and as fast as Chimeras.
