sorcerers get no bonus for more than 16 con. Only fighters get that. Pretty much any race is open to sorcerers (whoever can get it that is). 19 dex vs 18 dex is just a range increment. 21 dex gives an extra AC. High con does give regeneration though.

I'm going to have to say that it is a tie between the cleric/mage and sorcerer now, however. It seems that C/ms really do have more raw power, because of their improved amount of buff spells etc... But honestly, the sorcerer is only a teensy weensy bit less powerful than the C/m, and has the ability to cast more often, and has the ability to make a complete duplicate of himself via simulacrum. If you restore the sim, then wish/rest, you get a completely functional sorcerer of the same level. Cleric/mages cant do this because the simulacrum doesn't have the spells queued up in thier spell book.
