Abjuration wizard gear and feats

I plan to tackle honor mode after the current play through. I think it would be a good idea to have an abjuration wizard on the team. I have never done a full caster wizard, I am not quite sure what gears and feats to give him. I don’t know if battle mages gloves,helm of arcan acuity or the band of mystic scoundrels is best utilized on a casting wizard compare to a melee wizard.

8 str, 14 dex, 16 con, 12 Wis, 16 int and 8 ch. 1/11 wizard split. Feats: alter and asi.

Gear ideas:

Snowburst ring, ring of arcane synergy. Spinehudder amulet. Boots of speed. Coldbrim hat. Winters’s clutch gloves or gloves of dexterity. With glove of dexterity, I could skip the alter feat and pick up the dual wield feat.

Spellspeckler and mourning frost of early and mid game. Markoheskir and staff of cherish necro for late game

bard paladin where to start?

For 2/10 vengeance sword bard, is it better to start as a paladin or bard? Paladin would probably gets me more defense and survival capability with medium and heavy armor. However, that means i won’t unlock double attack till level 8. Is it better to do six level of bard first?

what is the best fighting style and feats. The build only gets 2 feats, I guess savage attacker is a must. Sword bard seem to have the best bow attack.However, bow attack won’t trigger smite,is it worth it to invest in sharpshooter? Or should I leave the second feat slot for an asi or alter?

Lastly is it better to have great weapon fighting Or defense with sword and shield?

EDIT: thanks for the advices guys. I think I am just gonna go with 2/10 fighter and bard. Going to keep him as my range dude.
