Which Items to bring for Artificer lvl 7?

[Khorus]

Ok I got to go to another 3.5 game after a long stretch of pathfinder. I'm a lvl 7 melee artificer and basically I want to be over prepared for just about anything (survivability). The dm likes to throw HIGH CRs at his players are other devious traps. I'm going to be packing eternal wands + schema. What spells would be handy to have?

So far I've come up with, Bite of the Were bear, divine power, and draconic polymorph. What should I bring for defense?

And as far as where to put wands I'm thinking wrist sheath (i'm war forged) Wand Hilts, and efficient quivers. Any other shenanigans that could help me out?

Pretty much all 3.5 except Book of Nine Swords is open. I just want to shine only when necessary and not bring undue attention to myself.

Defense.  Wand.  WINGS OF COVER!

Friendly Fire may also be useful.

Xorn Movement may also be a good one.

OK, this is for level 8, when you pick up "weapon augmentation"
Player's Guide to Faerun.  Look up "doomwarding".  Use the seven rerolls to help allies and on nat 1 saves.


Drow House insigna (Magic of Faerun or Drow of the Underdark ) are like combinable neck-slot eternal wands with fewer uses and restrictions.  Consider using them.

Bandoleer from Faerun is meant to hold knives but works for wands
Dungeonscape offers the Wand Chamber to put a wand in a weapon.  Put in crossbow
pick some things from this sheet http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=216614

I second wings of cover.
Another decent interrupt defensive spell is permiable form. idk if i spelld that right  It's not as good as wings of cover but it can come inhandy

actions and hands are key.  Double Spare hand is a must.  22,000 gp, but worth every copper when you can affoord it.

Metamagic Wand Grip is also probably a good item to grab.  get multiple.
