PFS – Feat / Arcana / Equipment advice for level 7 magus


Advice


*****This is for pathfinder society play ****

I have a level 1 bard (dawnflower dervish)/level 6 magus (hex crafter). I’m feeling a bit lost on what to do with his new feat and magus arcana. He is heading into bonekeep 1 shortly and I’m a little focused on that at the moment as well.

Stats: Str 8 dex 21 (w/ +2 belt) con 14 int 16 wis 8 cha 12
Feats: Arcane Strike, Extra Performance (for battle dance), intensified spell, weapon focus scimitar, dervish dance
Hexarcana: flight hex, wand wielder
Traits: magical knack (magus), wayang spell hunter (shocking grasp)
Kit: +1 scimitar, +1 dark leaf studded leather, belt of dex +2, cloak resist +2, cracked dusty rose prism ioun stone, spellguard bracers, wands of infernal healing, longstrider, shield, reduce person, true strike

Where do I go from here?

Equipment
I’ll have about 10k gold to spend before bonekeep.

I’m considering selling my sword and replacing it with an adamantine +1 scimitar as I’m worried about DR and I’m completely scimitar dependant. I keep scrolls of versatile weapon to deal with other non alignment based DR, but I’m vulnerable to adamantine.

My AC is 24 with shield and 26 with reduce person thrown in. I definitely will throw cash at a ring of protection of amulet of natural armor if there is any to spare. Any other great equipment ideas?

Feats/Arcana
I don’t see any feats that are really going to be combat game changers for me given that I don’t have the strength for many of the combat feats. Piranha strike is out as well since the scimitar is not finessable.

I’ve considered taking the familiar arcana along with improved familiar to get a faerie dragon (yes..I know I need the boon). And while the idea is colorful and I like it, I think I’d really only use him to use a wand to reduce me or maybe cat’s grace me. Not needing to take the time to do that myself seems huge, but maybe there is something more valuable I’m overlooking that could be done with my feat and arcana?

I apologize for the tomb. And appreciate your thoughts. Thanks in advance!


If you can, try to get a spell-storing scimitar if possible, you can use vampiric touch for emergency healing.


Not a bad idea at all thank you.

Anyone else have thoughts?

Thanks
