War Caster is another good feat, helping the Sorcerer concentrate on spells while also letting them use their empowered cantrips for opportunity attacks. The rest are hampered by the class' limited spell selection. The options presented are acid, cold, fire, lightning and thunder, but only cold, fire and lightning are good options. Elemental Adept is the most powerful, giving a slight boost to damage on spells of a specific elemental type while also letting them ignore resistance. Fifth Edition has a massive list of choices, but only a few are specifically useful to a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. While Sorcerers will want to use their ability score increases to max out their Charisma and boost other ability scores, players should also consider taking a feat to enhance their build. RELATED: D&D's Most Overpowered Weapon Isn't Officially in the Game - But It Should Be Elemental Adept Is an Essential Feat for a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer If any Dungeon Masters are weary of using Unearthed Arcana, the Revised Dragonborn race will be revised and published in the upcoming Fizban's Treasury of Dragons sourcebook. If that wasn't enough, Gem Dragonborn can fly for a minute a day, replicating the effect of a third level spell, albeit with a limited duration. It also bypasses the need to share a language with a creature. They also get access to telepathy, an undervalued feature that can help a party coordinate without needing to speak aloud.

While any of the options are good, Amethyst Gem Dragons get a rare resistance to force damage and a breath weapon that deals it. They can also choose between Metallic, Chromatic or Gem Dragon subraces.

These let the player put a +2 in Charisma and a +1 in Constitution while still playing into the flavor of of the subclass. Any race with a bonus to Charisma will help, but the best option for a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer is also the most obvious: Dragonborn, specifically the Revised Dragonborn presented in the Draconic Options Unearthed Arcana. While Tasha's Cauldron of Everything's new options for racial ability score increases make choosing the 'right' race less of a necessity than it once was, it's still important to pick one that works with the character's class and subclass rather than against it.
