Words of Power builds for magus?


Advice

Liberty's Edge

Has anyone seen any good build ideas for a magus that utilizes words of power? I really like the magus concept, but they seem to be pigeon-holed into intensified shocking grasp builds.


Words of Power has a significantly greater benefit for spontaneous casters, so you should probably start with the Eldritch Scion archetype.

Well, they don't use WOP but they don't use Shocking Grasp either. here you go, builds for a maneuver Magus and a battlefield control Magus.


Mindblade might work. Int-based spontaneous caster, so you get the WoP flexibility, and the ability to cherry-pick some normal spells from the psychic list, or pick up word-equavelents depending on your GM.
Thought components would suck for spell combat, though. Maybe rely more on 2handing with spellstrike to cut down on that. Might be better to go scion after all.
