Since you don't have ToB, I can tell you here and now that you are going to be HURTING. Why? Well, for the very simple reason of No Healing Potions. In fact, if you find anyhing that you *can* put in your Quick Item slots, let me know--I'd like to compile a list of just how badly the Wizard Slayer gets jacked in plain SoA.

How do you recover lost hitpoints? Well, the 3 best Regeneration items in SoA are barred to you, but there are still 3 items that you CAN use. To find the best one, go to the Playhouse in the basement of the Five Flagons in the Bridge District. This will start you off on a big, fun quest that will eventually land you with a weapon called Adjatha the Drinker. Once you've got that weapon, have it permanently welded to your hand or something, because you're never going to want to put it down.

As far as powergaming goes, if you're not going to Dual you'd have been better off as a Dwarf or Halfling instead of a Half-Elf, but hey, who needs another cookie-cutter Wizard Slayer anyway?
