I'm considering a Human Oracle with the Racial Heritage (Elf) feat to qualify for the Ancient Lorekeeper archetype. I would pair it with either the Lore mystery (knowledge monkey/summoner/buffer) or Life mystery (heal/summoner/support). I would use the human favored class option to embiggen my spells known list.
For those who are unaware, at every even level an Ancient Lorekeeper can choose an arcane spell from the sorcerer/wizard spell list. You choose a spell one level lower than the highest-level oracle spell you can cast. The spell is treated as one level higher than its true level for all purposes. For example: L2 Oracle picks a cantrip, but it takes a L1 slot; L4 Oracle picks a L1 arcane spell, but it takes a L2 slot; etc.
Since I'm probably going Spell Focus: Conjuration > Augment Summoning > Superior Summoning AND will have the typical Oracle support-type spells, I'm thinking of picking up DPS or control options. This is for PFS so I don't need anything higher than a L4 arcane suggestion.
My current thoughts are:
L1 as L2: Magic Missile
L2 as L3: Create Pit
L3 as L4: Haste (or Daylight*)
L4 as L5: Black Tentacles
*=Daylight would count as a L4 spell and would trump the L3 Deeper Darkness, which makes it very tempting as a permanent solution to Deeper Darkness
Suggestions?
