Is a Soulknife / Magus viable?


Advice


I'm considering rolling up a Soulknife/Magus for our upcoming Rise of the Runelords campaign tonight, but is that a viable, or even practical, build? Can one theoretically use the soulknife's mindblade for spellstriking and spell combat? Would the enhancement bonus from both the Magi's arcane pool points AND the Soulknives's power points apply to the weapon?
I would be rolling a Dex based Soulknife for level 1, and going into a dex based magus if possible.

Thoughts?


How interchangeable will your magic and psionics be? I really don't have any worthwhile answers to your questions, but I do like the idea. Also, I don't have the required resources on me, but the bonuses may not stack. Are they enhancement or some other types?

Also, check with your GM if he or she is willing to allow the concept, mechanically and thematically.

Well, what are you trying to get out of this multiclass? The soulknife definitely benefits from staying in soulknife, so that his mindblade can get awesome. As far as using Power Points for Magus abilities, I'd treat it the same way as some other Magus multiclass, e.g., if you multiclasses Wizard/Magus, could you expend Wizard spell slots for Magus abilities?
