Couple fvs gear/feat questions (end game)

[Maxallu]

This is a 2 (maybe 3)part question post sent from my iPhone regarding end game fvs. I'll try to make this as brief as possible, so let's get started.

1. Gear. I am not a big fan of swapping gear so I try to wear a set that covers everything that I need. This set has just about all I need as a faster and replaces my skiver.

Current setup:
Head:epic helm of frost
Goggles: gs sp con op
Neck: Symbol of the shining sun
Trinket: Planar focus of erudition (wis +8)
Cloak: adamanine cloak of the dragon
Belt: GS + 45 hp item.
Ring 1: Signet of the shining sun
Ring 2: TOD ring with +2 insightful wisdom +1 exceptional wisdom
Gloves: epic charged guantlets (greater false life)
Boots: epic boots of corrosion (heavy fort)
Bracers: Baces of the sun soul
Armor: Shadowmail
Weapon 1: Forgotten light
Weapon2: Wizard's Ward (impulse)

this set up takes care of Greater arcane lore, potency, impulse, devotion, radiance, spell mastery, HPs, con op, heavy fort, and requires very little if any gear swaps.

Real quick, any obvious holes? What am I overlooking? Is 5 piece chrono set better? What are other evokers wearing instead? Any and all tips welcome.

Secondly, fvs feats for a completionist.

Can't seem to fit in spell pen line with completionist.

Toughness
Spel focus evo
Completionist
Maxamize
Quicken
Heighten
Empower
Spe pennG
Greater spell focus evo
Greater spell penn


This leaves no room for epic spell pen. What feats are other fvs completionists taking?

I am not a completionist but I will try to answer anyway.

Why Greater SF Evoc and not Wizard active Past Life? If you have the 10 feat you listed I would definitely drop GSF Evoc - but with Wiz PL instead its a real problem that I havent figured out either.

Gearwise I dont see Spell Pen +3 (not even sure I see +2), Alchem +2 wisdom or +3 insightful wis.
I made a post that fits in those as well but at the cost of swapping weapons: http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=398641
Also, swapping does not have to be tedious: http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=394959

Wizzy past life won't count as prerequisite for epic spell focus evo so I did not take it.

What does Signet of the shining sun do for you ? You have charisma and 2 wisdom on 1st ring.
Perhaps craft guild slot, dex and resistance ring ? Or lootgen 8 wis freeing your trinket slot. There must be something better :-)

I agree with Mikardo btw, with past lives and completionist you could be building for eelites which means more spell pen and higher reflex.

I'd probably cut down on spell pen investment.

I actually have a similar character who, in making her life-plan, I worked up a little doc on my feat layout at certain benchmarks. At the bottom I wrote "Where does completionist fit?" ... the answer was "It doesn't - I'm trying to do too much".

You're feat-limited. You need SF for ED abilities / twists. How bad do you want spell pen?

You dont have room for ESF though so Wiz PL would seem better than GSP - and you only need SF as prereq for EDs
