As supporterdinger,  is not a 1-point wonder. As strange as that may sound, it has a very powerful blind as well as the highest damage/rank of his skills. You still want to level up though you want to keep  at a low level because it would push very hard and because bot lane is generally ranged, the enemies will most likely not be effected by the turrets.

Due to the dependancy on the base damage on your nukes, you would want a lot of magic pen runes. would then be your start to get that early game poke damage going. Then you would get a mana item like a or a. From there you would max out your cdr - which shouldn't be hard because gives 20% already- and then focus on either heavier ap or more tanky items.

The main thing that all support mages (eg., , ) is their strong pokes. Heimerdinger is no exception. Mana is definitly a problem on him early on but there is a vast variety of support items that deal with that problem efficiently. From lowest to greatest would be: ->->->->. I know  isn't really a support item but it is still really good on Heimerdinger. You could roll with a  but I consider that a tank item rather than a support item.
