I guess I will keep an eye out for nightbringer...thanks for the advice.
At the moment....I have no + magic missil items...just started, but I will make sure I find 2 before I leave broken vally. As for my stats and my spells, im folling the exact same build you have...just to get a feel for the game without being killed 100+ times and so far its working great =). I dont have the game on right now so I dont know where exactlly I've invested my points...sorry.
