Items

Gem of Isolation: Good for slowing down enemies when using Lightning Storm(ult). Also gives an early boost of power and health.

Shoes of the Magi: This gives a boost for penetration and movement speed to help move around the map, and to also escape fights.

Book of Thoth: Really for good for any mage. Stackable mana gains allow extra reward for kills of any kind.

Polynomicon: Great for helping to spread damage with Chain Lightning and Lightning Storm. Passive is good for picking off runaways.

Rod of Tahuti: If your using any mage and not using this, you are playing matches at a fraction of your power. The boost in power is significant, and most likely game changing.

Obsidian Shard: Additional power and penetration for mid to late game.

    High Power/Penetration/Lifesteal
