5e noob here.
My DM house ruled the Magic Initiate Feat from the PHB. It does all the same things as the original feat plus it gives you an additional 2+Int Mod spell points (we use spell points instead of slots). I'd have the ability to cast four additional cantrips or two additional level 1 spells or 1 additional level 2 spell. Having the ability to cast more spells (plus the other benefits of Magic Initiate) is a nice feature.
Now, many of the Wizard guides out there say that you should take the Lucky, Resilient, or Mobile feats. With the modification I mentioned above, how does the new feat stack up against the recommended feats?
Because the Magic Initiate feat allows you to grab spells from other classes, I was thinking of grabbing from the cleric or druid pool. Spells such as Guidance, Resistance, and Bane (Cleric)/Entangle (Druid). We're in a magic item poor campaign where the use of magic is outlawed. Buff spells might be good for a battlefield controller wizard, perhaps?
