This build has been on our guild forums over 18 months now and has been demied by 3 other guildies so I thought I would add it here.
I revised this toon and reinced 12 months ago now based on a comment Eb made re search, and pure frustration re the lack of runs for PMs. It is now a little more able to cope with Raks, and can search Hells.
The Conj is solely for Epic Grab - do not try to cast Conj spells in Hells. Likewise, the Trans is solely for Wall - the only thing you'll disintegrate is your mana.
General Stuff
Race Elf
Subrace Genie
Pandect: Shield
Book: Illusion
Arti: INT
Unbuffed Stats:
AC: 135
HP: 1074
Levelling order:
4 Wiz, 10 PM, 6 Wiz, 40 PM
From Genie:
Free Feats: Spell Penetration, Greater Spell Penetration
Able to walk on quicksand
Speaks: Auran, Celestial, Ignan.
Current gear:
Tia Staff
Blazon of Selune
Odruns Oath (added 51% elec and 20% acid with 3x 14s)
2x Tia Rings
Tia Belt
Tia Cloak
Styxwalkers
Mote of Armor Adeptory
Helm of Darkened Vision
Shimmering Robes of the Silvermoon (+1 DC for COD)
Thids bracers
It should be noted that by using the Shimmering Robes of the Silvermoon (a set item from a chest on Map 3 of Stygia) you will get the same DC for CoD as you do for FoD. This completely negates the argument for using AoE FoDs via Negatai/Plate of Anubis in Hells as it means you take zero kickback on this build as oppossed to the potential kickback from miss-targeting on the Negatai version and including Malebs/PFs etc in the AoE with precisely the same spell effects and stats - only using a lower level spell.
Helm of Darkened Vision will increase your Eyebite spell.
The Blazon of Selune gives GSF Div!
Suggested Ego Item
As far as Ego Items go - if I had one I would use a Wizard DC ego item. This is as all spells cast on a regular basis by this toon in Hells are DC based. (The exception being the Asmo fight where you do a little damage - but you need the DC anyway as you must Bestow, Eyebite and Enervate first).

Important Levelling Stuff:
It will be a pain in the ass but make sure that you take HG Enhanced spells and the un-scribeable spells on level-up. The only way to avoid this is to have a Codex of Arcane Algorthyms (I am still working on farming a second one for this toon - my Wiz has the only one I have had drop).
Setting up the Spell Book:
Notably, depending on the run you will want to swap out some of these spells and add Power Word Kill.
