Good Feats for a Level 12 Sorcerer?
Playing as default Durge (White Storm Sorcerer). I have Magic Initiate and Lucky picked. I don't really use weapons now that I got the Markoheshkir but before I was using Stillmaker to poke when I ran out of good spells to use. My playstyle is being very aggressive but I try to keep him back as much as possible. His Deathstalker Mantle is so OP I can't resist not being aggressive with him.

Why MI?

Why would you run magic initiate and lucky on a sorc?
Go 1x ASI to max out cha, 1x elemental adept (probably lightning as a storm sorc) and then either another dex ASI or war caster. Alerts also good on any class.

Alert. So you almost always go first.

I have no idea why I picked it. I just assumed it was good at the time. Sucks I can't take them back.

OK I definitely need that when I fight Orin. I hate getting stunned.

Forgot to mention I'm on an evil Durge playthrough, if that matters.

Warcaster if you feel like you're getting hit a lot and need to keep concentration up.

Alert because alpha is king.

There's not much else besides those two that I'd really call 'necessary' for a Sorc, so probably ASI if you think you need it, or anything else that just looks good to you.

Elemental Adept isn't as useful as it appears on paper. Most of the time you're getting targets Wet for dbl damage or something, so you don't need it.

To be fair if someone is picking MI on a sorcerer, they are probably new and wet combo isn't something we should expect them to know about.

Well you're definitely right about me being new. I'm only on my second playthrough right now.
Also what metamagics should I pick? Twinned and Distant seem like no brainers.

Quickened is good too

Twinned, distant, quickened and heightened are my usual picks.

Thanks. Is Subtle good? I don't really get silenced often but it's annoying when it happens.

Silence you can usually just run out of, so I def wouldn't call it worth.
If it worked like it does in 5e, essentially letting you cast without anyone being able to tell that you're casting, it'd be better in niche applications.
