Hello everyone!

Okay I want to start out saying that I read all the guides to the Arcane Trickster. Read them, they're great. You know, if I was 15th level, or had infinity gold. But my character is not 15th level and definitely doesn't have infinity gold.

My character is level 5, we're playing the Shattered Star campaign, just entering Book 2. I'm looking to play this character for the long haul, so I don't want to make bad decisions right now that will turn out a gimped character in the long run. I feel like it's pretty easy to end up with a gimpy Arcane Trickster just because of a few misinformed decisions in the beginning.

Okay so here she is:

Zynn Norena - human
2 Rogue / 3 Wizard Evoker
STR - 12
DEX - 16
CON - 13
INT - 17
WIS - 10
CHA - 10

Feats:
Weapon Finesse
Improved Initiative
Toughness
MISSING ONE

AC 17

Weapons:
Masterwork shortsword +1
Dagger (regular type)
Crossbow (regular type)

Armor:
Studded leather
Buckler

Rogue Trick:
Bleeding attack

Evocation Wizard, Opposed: Enchantment & Necromancy

Spells Known:
1 - Floating Disk, Burning Hands, Magic Missile, Shocking Grasp, Shield, Vanish, Color Spray, Disguise Self, Touch of Gracelessness
2 - Scorching Ray, Invisibility

I think that's all the pertinent information. Obviously I need a feat. The two 2nd level spells I picked can change too, because I'm just leveling up to 5.

Any advice?? I need a plan, and I have no plan! I still need another level of rogue before I can even take my first level of Arcane Trickster. I feel like this is perhaps not a class you should start at level 1, from reading the guides it really seems like you need some rockin' magical items in order to be functional that you def don't get at level 1 and may not ever find.

NEED HELP. :D!
