[QUOTE="vagabundo, post: 4692954, member: 55864"] One of my players - the half-elf wizard - has recently shown some frustration with his character, The Great Haraj, when in combat. He has mentioned that it seems to end up that he is just firing magic missiles after magic missile, while the other characters are in the thick of it and seem to have a more options. I was hoping that I could get some suggestions to rebuild him something a little more combat effective, something with a little more oomph. The Great Haraj is taking an in-game seista for a few months to [I]work on his magic[/I]. I think that he needs more options and variation in his At Will attacks. From memory here is what he currently has: 4th level half-elf Wizard Wand implement mastery. At Wills: Magic missile Scorching Blast Enc: Some healing power from the pal or cleric list (half-elf Racial) Shock sphere Burning hands Util: Expeditious retreat Daily: Freezing Cloud or Acid Arrow He has the expanded spellbook, but doesnt swap out spells at all, so I'll free up that feat for him. And that healing power is rarely used. Any suggestion welcome, I was thinking of multiclassing him into warlock, as I think he would like to [I]strike[/I] a bit more. He gets a little jealous of the rogue's damage and the fighter, who is always in the thick of it. Any suggestions for interesting combos of feats, powers or items gratefully accepted. He does like his character concept. Oh we're leveling up next session to 5th level and I've just given him a Rod (unknown power) and a wand of scorching burst. [/QUOTE]
