How should I make this more durable without much cheese?
so, I am creating a backup character for a campaign I am in, and I think what I have is fairly good, but overall has some faults. I already rolled and did so well, and decided on my class. as a sixth level character, I am wizard 5/wild mage 1, and have no book restrictions, but no magazines or obscure third party books. We can access almost all of the normal ones. Anyway. I need some help coming up with ways to avoid having constant fear of fireballs. Is there a race that gats a plus to int. with no LA with no minus to con?
are my feats and items sensible?
I just need basic ironing out.
here is the sheet: Thanks!"Now if you don't mind, I am somewhat preoccupied telling the laws of physics to shut up and sit down."
You know you're an epic wizard when you use a stilled silent extended quickened Gust of Wind spell to blow out the candles of your candle covered birthday cake.
Adventurers steal everything thats not nailed down. And what is. And the nails. After all, a bag full of nails can fetch a pretty penny. No doubt they'll weaponize it, too.

I believe there's a quasi-genasi race out there that is, basically, a genasi without the Outsider status, and I think a fire variant would have a bonus to intelligence and minus to charisma and wisdom.

You could be an Incantrix, and have a Persistent Protection from Energy (all 5 types) within a few levels.

In Dungeons and Dragons, racism is frowned upon, unless you're playing an elf. Then it's an interesting character trait.

planetouched races and incantarix are quite decidedly cheese. try to use tactics and planning more than build stuff if you are anti cheese. and checking crystal keep for races is easiest, just scroll down lookin at the ability adjustments. cant help more right now though, bed time.

Re: How should I make this more durable without much cheese?
I'm not exactly anti-cheese. this will be used in a game so I don't want a DMG thrown at my skull. I want it to be powerful without completely blowing the other casters out of the water. To test the DM I asked if I could buy a candle of invocation and if I could use it, and he said yes. I didn't, but this means he would not be completely aware of the light cheese, but he is an optimizer himself, so he can spot a wizard who deals 100d% a round with no miss chance.
The magic-effected feats in UA- are they any good?"Now if you don't mind, I am somewhat preoccupied telling the laws of physics to shut up and sit down."
