Ok so in 3.5 i played a duskblade in an age of worm campaign that made it too 15th level before everyone moved away, but recently all of us purchased fantasy grounds 2 and were starting in back up as pathfinder. My dm ok'd me to rebuild him as a magus and since he was more weapon based than spell i chose to make him a kensai. I have him done besides feat selection and was wondering what yall though about my choices and if any could be better. Thanks..
bonus-weapon focus-scimitar
Human-power attack
1st-spell penetration
3rd-greater spell pen.
5th-improved familiar(hes getting one threw magus arcana)
5th-intense spell
7th-weapon spec- scimitar
9th-critical focus
11th-greater weapon focus- scimitar
11th-improved critical
13th-extra magus arcana
15th-staggering critical
at 17th i plan on taking stunning crit and critical mastery stacking stag/stun. He uses a +4 shocking burst scimitar thats also a legacy weapon...
Any advice would be great!

Weapon Focus at level 1 is not an option you still have BAB 0 at that point. Weapon Focus is also impossible at level 7 since you need to be level 10 to count half your magus level as figher levels.. and it's rather weak.
Intensified spell is very good get some pearls of power I and II so you don't run out of spells.
My suggestion would be to finde some space for quicken spell, and another metamagic feat and get spell perfection at level 15, that you you should get 2 spells and up to 5 attacks every round.
What arcana to you plan to take ?
Well the Kensai Magus gets weapon focus for free at 1st and the magus level is -3 for fighter feats. Also their magus level counts as fighter level for critical feats... I plan on using intense shocking grasp and fireball/lightning bolt, but im not goin to rely on spells to get damage across therefore im not goin the mega shocking spell perfection build... Arcana wise im taking arcane accuracy, familiar, enduring blade, bane blade, and spell blending...
Ok yea i can swap in spell pen at 1st then i guess and take power attk at 3rd.. The character has a much higher strength than dex so dervish dance is out..
