Wanted to make a character for an upcoming home campaign that could have a lot of fun out of combat abilities and fluff items(Crafting and a familiar etc.), while also doing well in combat. I started building this character and realized its perfect for this type of build, because it requires very few low level feats. Planning on 17 Magus/3 Fighter starting fighter at around 7 or 8. 5th level start, 25 point buy, 10500 gp based on wealth per level chart, my GM is fine with me crafting all of my items. So my questions are:
(Future question for when I take the familiar arcana)
Which familiar should I take if I want to use it for flanking/wands? Should I take Improved Familiar?
What are the most optimal Critical feats?
General wondrous item and weapon enchant preferences?
Eldritch Heritage worth it? If so which bloodline?
Any other feat/arcana recommendations?

For crit fishing, consider a winds oracle 1 level dip. Any time you spellstrike crit you also stagger, and if you dual curse you're a feat away from misfortune reroll happiness.
Air mephit to go along with the theme, and for their perma-blur, eventually for the whole party.
I'd consider dropping the int a smidge to get more con.
