Hey everyone! I’m looking for some advice on gear to improve my character in DDO. For context, I’m a level 9 Sorcerer, level 8 Favored Soul, and level 1 Rogue. I took the Rogue level for Disable Device since I mostly solo with hirelings.

I’m focused on fire spell damage, but I’m open to gear suggestions. Whether it’s for spellpower, DC, defenses, or utility, what named items, sets, or crafting goals would you recommend? If there’s anything worth farming or crafting, I’d love to know. Thanks in advance!

What you need is 2 more levels and a heroic heart of wood. Farm up 20 tokens of the twelve and get a Past life. Neither sorc nor FVS are classes that you split like that, Sorc is almost always a pure 20 lvls...

After you TR, pick up Wild Mage instead of Sorcerer for Mixed Magics so you have full caster level in both Wild Mage and Favored Soul.

Not a conventional or optimal class split by any means, and while a TR + adjusting your build would be be more beneficial to the improvement of your character... as long as you're having fun that's really all that matters. What is your current gear?

with only 1 level rogue, I highly suggest Saltmarsh's gloves of the tinkerer, upgradable from level 3, to 20, and again to 30. So you'd need 3 pairs in total for endgame, but they drop frequently in saltmarsh wilderness. They'll help boost your disable device and open lock skills

depending on what expansions you have, there's stuff in vecna unleashed, isle of dread and maybe a couple items in saltmarsh that may be useful to your multiclass set up. I highly recommend the rings in isle of dread that match you element for sorc and favored soul, you can complete set bonus in isle of dread with other items and choose one of the cloak/helm/armor sets for a second bonus, and you could fill items from saltmarsh for easiest farming and likeliness of obtaining. Weapons, craft dino weapons or if you have the new chill expansion, craft viktranium weapons, it's the same stuff as dino, but 3 levels higher will help them be useful longer. Vecna gear gets a bad rap, but it's decent gear and has stuff for everyone, but it's not as likely to drop. Vecna the orbs would be nice addition for you. and you can choose your set bonus for helm/armor/cloak set that's really nice since you wouldn't have to get specific gear for that set bonus. Don't even think about Drannor gear, it doesn't actually exist in the game from what I can tell. Feywild may have some useful stuff, but with only 1 augment slot per gear item, same for ravenloft, it's not really attractive to me, but I do use legendary windriders and legendary flightfoot greaves for freedom of movement. But you could also use crock boots from saltmarsh for that and get 2 augment slots with acid abosorption.
