What are your character's attributes (Strength etc.)? If your charisma is lower than 10 you can NOT cast any sorceror based spells as charisma is the determining factor for sorceror spells. Same holds true for wisdom for the ranger. Rangers do not get clerical cantrips. The basic rule of thumb is that the BASE value of the spellcasting prime stat must be equal to 10 + the level of the spell in order to cast a spell of that level. So a 5th level sorceror would need a BASE charisma of 12 in order to cast 2nd level spells, and a 14th level ranger would need a wisdom of 13 in order to cast 3rd level ranger spells. Modifications to stats from items are NOT considered when determining if your character meets these requirements.
