sorcerer build help

[Lady-J]

as this is my 2nd time playing a caster im looking for some help in planning out the build

stats in order of highest to lowest are 18,17,16,14,14,12
the character is a crossblooded sorcerer(orc and arcane) with vmc wizard(evocation>admixture)
havent decided on race yet but will either be human(for bonus feat and+2 cha) or aasimar (for +4 cha and +2 int) and im having trouble with feats
list of feats hoping to have in the build (empower spell, spell focus, spell specilisation,spontanius metafocus, craft wonderous items, spell perfection, grater spell focus)

Looks to me like you're building a blasting sorcerer, if that is the case then here is my advice:

1) drop cross blooded and go either orc or draconic(any element), this then lets you get the very powerful bloodline mutations. They are not compatible with crossblooded.

2) Drop the VMC. The bloodline mutations are better, stronger, and don't cost you 5 feats. This also means you can get more from your feat list.

STR:12 DEX:17 CON:16 INT:14 WIS:14 CHA:18

You can swap INT for DEX or CON if you want more skill points. Both human and aasimar are good picks, although the +2 CHA +2 DEX aasimar would be a good choice too.

the vmc is so i can change the damage type of the spell with out useing meta magics and is a must with my dm as well as getting me half my level to damage on all my damaging spells, bloodline mutations is compatible with cross blooded so long as i use a bloodline feat or so im told if not ill drop cross blooded but ill still take the vmc unless you know of a way to make spells do sonic/force damage

You could just build around battering Blast then you don't need to be able to change your magic on the fly.

I would drop VMC for a blaster you want Spell perfection that's 4 feats gone and to take advantage of it you want Spell focus and greater and spell pen and greater
That's 8 feats gone. With battering Blast you don't need spell focus but then you arguably want pbs and precise shot.

Yes you can get them as feats instead of trading away bloodline powers but you are very short on feats because... You're trading away 5 feats for a single ability that you don't even get until level 7.

You have 7 feats listed that you want. Add in 3 bloodline mutations that take the place of your bloodline feats and you can't get all of the good stuff that you want. Your feats are spread further apart and half of them are late game. Trading 5 feats for a single level 7 ability is a terrible trade off IMO. Spell pen + Greater are a must for any good blaster. You also need 3 metamagic feats before you hit 17 for your spell perfection. 17 because you don't get your lvl 15 feat due to VMC.

My advice would be to instead do non-VMC non-xblooded with the goal of a single signature type spell but a couple different energy type back ups as well as a healthy spell list of utility and other useful spells in the off chance your blasting doesn't work at all. Also there's Battering Blast like Chromantic Durgon said.

Also I really don't see why you'd need to spontaneously have sound/force damage unless your DM is deliberately hampering you.

You might consider the spell dragons breath. It would let you change elements without the VMC.

ive desided to do away with vmc and take a single level in archanist school servent archetype the question is does the school ability key off of cha like all the other archanist abilities or does it stay keyed off of int?

[Lady-J]

what would be some good metamagics to have empower and selective are on the list to get any other good ones?

[Chromantic Durgon <3]

Intensify is good for damage, Maximize has its merits, Quicken is basically essential to blasters. Persistent isn't bad and Dazing is broken.
