Viablity of sorcerer magus


Advice


Now I was considering ways to up the damage of a magus with magical knack now beign PFS legal.

Would a dip in a cross blooded sorcerer blue drgaond/orc for the extar 2 damage per die roll on your shocking grasp be worth it?

Considering you would most likely already be a kensai bladebound.


Probably, yeah. Eventually, dealing 10d6+20 with a first level spell is pretty sweet.

If you're cool with dipping more (since Magical Knack raises your CL by 2), you might want to consider a Stone Oracle for Clobbering Strike, which gives you a free Trip on a spell crit.


That might hurt the Bab quite a bit dropping two levels. But I do like the idea of being able to say "It's clobbering time!"

Edit. You could be a dual cursed deaf/wolfscarred with a bite and all silent spells.


I would also go tatooed sorcerer to actually buff your invocation CL by one over a non-multiclassed caster, and replace your bullshit 1. level bloodline ability with a totally sweet familiar ability like +4 initiative.


Tattooed sorcerer and crossblooded I was told conflict.

Crossblooded and Wildblooded cannot be combined in PFS

Not seeing a lot of gain. Sure, you get 1 or 2 daily spells extra, but since they wont be progressing in CL or used with Spell Combat, they're not going to be much different from just buying a wand. The draw of the Sorcerer dip is +2 damage per die, and I just don't see anything worth giving that up for in the lvl 1 bloodline powers.

EDIT: Oh, spell slots from other classes are fine, as long as the spell is on the Magus list? Meh, still not picking Sage.

Sorcerer, Crossblooded and Wildblooded: Can I take both of these archetypes for the same character?
