Been thru this game a couple times & even started over to try maxing out my stats for focused characters. For a FAST SORCERER PAWN that won't cancel & run around (as much) this is what I tested & concluded:

Primary: Ingle

Secondary: Miasma, Holy Boon, Fire Boon (when staff shoots it's fast & explodes, avoid ice & dark as they are really slow & hover before firing)

Equipment: Wyrmking Ring, Articulacy, Emphasis, Barbed Nails, Perpetuation, [Impact] has no knockdown benefit for your spells all the knockdown equipment helps him fight normal enemy groups tested without barbed nails on a saurian and the creature won't fall.

I did this tested & you can try it too to see what I mean:

I set up two sorcers with these exact same abilities except one pawn had only level 1 Ingle, Miasma, Holy BOON, & none of the core skills leveled. The other pawn I leveled everything to High Ingle, High Miasma, Holy Affinity & leveled the core skills that let the sorcerer charge up his basic attack or create orbs. I took them both on each of their games & let them fight the bandits outside Gran Soren near the little pond with the Archers & Daggers on HARD MODE.

The Sorcerer with level 2 spells & the core charge attack skills would run around constantly trying to charge Holy Affinity to the max & just end up canceling & running. Same with High Ingle & High Miasma. Sometimesn he would charge the basic staff attack & then not use it = lame

The Sorcerer with only the first level of each spell casts more often, doesn't waste time trying to charge his basic attack instead of casting a spell, Ingle & Miasma are cast VERY quickly (faster than a Ranger trying to aim his Tenfold Flurry). So at level 50 pure sorcerer for my pawn and a cruddy staff he can one shot a non sword bandit with Ingle. Miasma will take 3-4 hits. Once he's leveled up higher & late game these basic skills are more than enough to kill all the general baddies as a support ranged character.

For bosses I just wanted the Boon Spells for my main character & I play Ranger so I needed to make a magic pawn since I only use my one main pawn these games so far.
