Replace the Bracers with Packbanner. Swap Q Con for Q PRR, and put Stunning on your non-accuracy slaver item. You lose 4 con and 2 stunning, gain 10dstrike.

Im thinking about doing heroics instead of epics. What race would work best for heroics. And what exactly(details) would you change if you were doing a heroic wizard with(race)

If you have Racial AP then aasimar or Horc. Human if you do not have Race AP, for the bonus feat. Or whatever racial past life youre going for in heroics. Doesnt make much of a difference unless you have the AP to grab top tier of horc or aasimar tree.

Unless I'm mistaken, you won't make the minimum BAB to qualify for GTWF on a pure wizard in Heroics.

In that event, you are better off going Single Weapon Fighting and using an orb.

The numbers will skew differently but the DPS should be about the same.  SWF is a pretty good combat style.

As always, YMMV.

Your thing where you pull a bunch of letters and put them together is just not working.

Go back to DDO Buzz feed, there you can just say bullshit with no backing, you won't have to waste your time typing YMMV.

What extra feat as a human? Power attack?

Up to you, you seem to have a mix of spell feats and melee feats there. No shortage of what you can take. Weapon focus for melee power, toughness, improved spell focus, empower, cleave. BTW, if you have a wizard past life it will be better to take that over spell focus unless you're planning on taking improved spell focus. The real advantage of Human is that the free feat at level 1 lets you take one of those feats from middle levels and apply it earlier for a slightly improved heroic leveling experience.

Looks like that build, only worse. Unoriginalbuilder maybe?

Your spellsword damage is most of your damage.
you keep applying it, the faster you do so the better

TWF is the fastest most doublestriking style by far

Anything else is less DPS, on a build that cant DPS anything with resistances-before-scaling mechanics in lategame raids. Just worse

For a cap build I don't think you can top Fetters main hand and Dust offhand.

Whelm is pretty awesome in a perfect scenario - aka someone else is applying vulnerable and debuffs. But this is limited to mainly bosses and raid bosses in a group where your friends don't suck. Soulrazor only shines after you've gotten a few kills, which Fetters/Dust is better at, and becomes useless if you have to swap weapons for anything.

Hmm.. sounds like Flow and a LGS Rapier with Dust and can avoid the second improved crit  and just go with Piercing...

They're far from top notch but they're viable. The forum build that OP lifted his shit from worked really well and that was before Dust was fixed. The Dust offhand I used synergized nicely with acid imbue and propped up the negative spellpower a bit.

Certainly not R10 material due to the self heal debuff. But for R5ish quests and basic reaper raids it handled business. The main issue was too many overlapping abilities. Simply didn't need the cleave+energy burst+lvl 9 spell nukes. Though having competent Mass Hold did mesh really well with Dire Charge considering the mostly single target melee DPS.
