[QUOTE="masteraleph, post: 6987047, member: 6694750"] 1) Before you take a lot of those feats, particularly Implement Focus, take the appropriate Expertise feat. +1 to attack is always better than +1 to damage. You also want a Superior Implement- probably Accurate, as boring as that is. 2) Practically speaking, they're relatively equivalent, though attacks targeting your Will tend to be worse for you than ones targeting Reflex. If you're using Daggers and not Staffs (with Staff Expertise), then definitely Unarmored Agility, because you probably want Shimmering Armor. Ditto if you eventually go into mid-Paragon as a Demonskin Adept, because you probably want a Robe of Eyes. Otherwise, Battle Harness and Parchment come in both cloth and leather, so use what you prefer. 3) See #1. You want Expertise and Superior Implement. 4) Storm Sorcerers, like all Sorcerers, get a big bump to damage at level 3 in Flame Spiral. Storm Sorcerers tend to be more survivable than others, because of the feature interrupt (most enemies aren't going to be dealing a huge quantity of lightning or thunder, or for that matter resisting it). I'm not a huge fan of Deep Shroud, and tend to prefer Spatial Trip for the teleporting, but none of the level 2 utilities for Sorcerers, or for their really good skills, are all that great. [/QUOTE]
