I would suggest buying more utility items. If you didn't buy shurelyies before you should totally do that now. Also try to get locket of the iron solari OR Banner of Command. Locket would give your team more tankiness while banner has more sole tankiness and it modifies your turret strength.

Try to get Shard of True Ice and Philosopher's stone real early so it can help make money for you. Dig deep into the utility masteries to get the Wealth mastery maxed. The Mastermind maxed. And the Artificer mastery maxed. Get some magic penetration in the runes, masteries, or even the items you are building. If you build an item for pen get just one. I would get either the haunting guise for tankiness and AP or the Sorcerer's shoes for just the pen alone. Also get alacrity on whatever boots you decide to wear.

If Shard of True Ice doesn't suit you and you are having a roaming problem get Twin shadows instead. That item will give heimerdinger much needed mobility and let him do more damage while the activate will reveal and slow nearby targets. Perfect for tagging with the rockets.

I would also perscribe Seeker's Armguard. It's really cheap to buy and sitting on it is nice. Late game Zhonya's will give you some personal survivability and if they focus you before getting rid of your turrets you have something to hurt them with.

If you are facing a heavy CC opponent and or opponents I would get Mikeal's crucible by fusing Philosopher's stone and Chalice of Harmony. It helps you peel for your marksman or add additional tankiness to the initator. Heimerdinger doesn't burn through mana like this but you can get Tear of the Goddess and see if you can make the gold to turn it into the staff. No rushing though you just have to sit on it for awhile and when you have bought many other more pertient items you can focus on that one. By then you could use the damage and the shield. If you get tear of the goddess don't forget to put a mastery points into strength of spirit.

It will react to your deeper mana pool by giving you a stronger regen making it mix well with your innate.
