[QUOTE="Saagael, post: 5791470, member: 84839"] You start out with 3 magic items: 1 at your level, 1 at your level+1, and one at your level-1. So you'd start with a level 6, 7 and 8 magic item. You also start with enough gold to buy a level-1 item (level 6 item). As for optimizing, grab a +2 item for your implement, armor and neck item. Those should be your first three items, and should use up your level 6, 7 and 8 item. Yes, the extra properties and powers might be nice, but, for an optimizer, aren't as good as +1 to attack, damage, and defenses. The Staff of Ruin is good, and if you can get that in +2 form, I would go for it. The +1 Staff of Ruin isn't as good as a +2 magic staff, as you don't get a bonus to attack from a +1 staff of ruin. I would also maybe suggest dropping the +1 rhythm blade, and just go with a normal rhythm blade. Along with this, replace the Dual Implement Spellcaster feat with something else. Superior Implement Proficiency, or Implement Focus, perhaps. Dual Implement Spellcaster is only really helpful once you've got a +2 or +3 implement in your off-hand, so you can afford to wait on that. Just some general notes: If you're looking to avoid hitting allies with bursts an blasts, I would change to a Storm Sorcerer instead of Chaos Sorcerer, and take the bursts and blasts that let you ignore creatures in the origin square (like the eye of a storm). It also helps that you're taking a few lightning powers. I've also found that Chaos Sorcerers are a bit finicky. That's not a deal-breaker though if you like the flavor. Lastly, I would see about buying a pair of boots with your gold. Some boots that give you +1 to speed would be great, since that helps out your Spark Form power. Speaking of Spark Form, you should love that power, use it to be awesome. [/QUOTE]
