It's works well if you end up getting merc's treads too.
Great way to get the 20 MRpen and still get some utility.

A better alternative to 
Ionian Boots of Lucidity imo is to get the 9% from sorcery and intelligence, the 6% from Greater Glyph of Cooldown Reduction(that's 15% before you buy anything), the 15-20% from Deathfire Grasp or Morello's Evil Tome(both of which give additional mana regen), and the last 10% from Crest of the Ancient Golem or Elixir of Brilliance. That's 40% right there, no need for the boots.
My opinion of Haunting Guise is that it's too expensive and not rewarding enough on caster's that rely on ability power for damage compared to getting your next ability power item.

Bad idea. Haunting guise just doesn't bring enough to the table..

They should rework Haunting Guise AND make it able to build into something else.

Another thread mentioned that brutalizer might build into LW. It'd be an interesting idea for HG to build into Void Staff.

Yea, that could be really cool.

For casters that have to nuke faster, what about getting Haunting guise to cover your Mag Pen needs and Boots of lucidity?If gives the strength of Sorcerer's Shoes while giving CDR and HP making you all around stronger. You can sell Haunting Guise later for a better source like, Void staff but, is it a viable early game trade-off?
