The X is worth 8 points here, so the best plays all use it. Place it on a double or triple square before spending points elsewhere.
The X (8 points) is where the points are. Park it on a double or triple letter square first, then build around it; the small words can wait until the premium squares are used up.
Lead with MOXIE for 14 points if a premium square is free. If not, OXIME keeps the high tile in play without leaving you short on vowels for the next draw.
