Help me decide which traits to take at lvl 1 and which to take at lvl 5 via "extra traits"

As the title says, I plan on taking extra traits as a feat come lvl 5. I'm playing a magus, so one of those traits is going to be "metamagic master."

There are 3 traits I think will be useful, but I don't know which will be more useful at lower levels. (I'm a new PFS player, only at lv 1 on my first character right now)

My picks are: Reactionary, Focused Mind, Adopted: Balloon Headed.

I have no points in Wis, so my perception sucks without the trait (no idea how prevalent perception checks are, but if it's anything like other games I've played, they'll happen all the time and be important). I have 4 Initiative without Reactionary. I'm a low level magus, so concentration checks can be hard.

Which two should I take at lvl 1?


Just so you know, there's no trait called Metamagic Master in any Paizo book.

Be careful when relying on d20pfsrd for PFS characters.

Pirate Rob: How about this one: Metamagic master from Pathfinder Player Companion: Dragon Empires Primer?


Remember the bit where I said relying on d20pfsrd is dangerous.

There is no feat in Pathfinder Player Companion: Dragon Empires Primer
called Metamagic Master.

Because d20pfsrd is considered a commercial user they are not allowed to use the Community Use Policy.

Meaning they can't use any of Paizo's proper names, etc.

And the difference to the Wayang Spellhunter trait is just in the background info.

As long as Angel Hunter D has access to the source (and if the trait is available for PFS (check the sanctioned resources!) ) what's the difference?

Wayang Spellhunter:

You grew up on one of the wayang-populated islands of Minata, and your use of magic while hunting has been a boon to you. Select a spell of 3rd level or below. When you use this spell with a metamagic feat, it uses up a spell slot one level lower than it normally would.

Back on topic: I'd wait on focused mind.

call it "wayang spell hunter" then, doesn't matter. We have one for waiting on "focused mind," any differing opinions?
