Hi everyone,
Thinking about taking an Admixture-Wizard dip for my magus.
Am I right that the arcane bond item would be for the lvl-1 wiz-spells only? As I would also assume that I dont have to take a concentration check for my magus spells while not wearing the item.
Sorcerer: Do the bonuses granted from Bloodline Arcana apply to all of the spells cast by the sorcerer, or just those cast from the sorcerer's spell list? (page 72 of the Core Rulebook)
"The Bloodline Arcana powers apply to all of the spells cast by characters of that bloodline, not just those cast using the sorcerer's spell slots.
General rule: If a class ability modifies your spellcasting, it applies to your spells from all classes, not just spells from the class that grants the ability. (The exception is if the class ability specifically says it only applies to spells from that class.)

hm - maybe I wrote it badly - so 2nd try:
I am playing a Magus and I want to take a Wizard level (Admixture) with arcane bond.
A couple questions arise:
1st:
Can I use the arcane bond for my Magus spells or is it limited to the wizard spells I get.
--> I d say the bond is for wizard spells only, but after reading the FAQ from Jason Bulmahn (see 1st post) I am no longer sure. It would be a nice boon to the generally gimpy caster multiclassing.
2nd:
Do all Wizard spells get spell failure from armor or just the ones that are not also on the Magus spell list? -- eg Do I cast shield with spell failure using a wizard spell slot?
3rd:
I dont have to write spells I want for both classes twice into a spellbook (1x magus, 1xwizard), do I?
4th:
Spells I have with both classes have different power depending on the spell slot I use - right? eg (magus lvl4/ wizard lvl1) - shocking grasp in magus slot 4d6, shocking grasp in wizard slot 1d6.
Thx in advance!

Its all a bit strange, but I guess its required to keep balance.
