This is a character I'm theory crafting for PFS, and probably won't plan on taking her up past level 11. Mostly, I'm looking to for advice on anything I might have missed
She's got two niches: She knows darn-near every spell on her list (gonna be getting at least 1 blessed book) and she's really great at dispelling magic.
Human, Industrious alternate racial trait (replaces Skilled) for the +2 Concentration checks (And +2 craft alchemy to boot, but really I'm just going for the concentration)
Stat allocation
Str 7 Dex 12 Con 14 Int 16+2 Wis 12 Cha 14
Traits: Reactionary(+2 Init), Gifted Adept[Dispel Magic] (+1 CL when casting DM)
Feats:
1) Spell Focus (Abjuration)
1(Human Bonus Feat) Extra Reservoir
3) Varisian Tattoo (Abjuration)
5) Improved Counterspell
7) Dispel Focus
9) Greater Dispel Focus
11) Destructive Dispel
Exploits:
1) Dimensional Slide
3) Potent Magic
5) Quick Study
7) See Magic
9) Bloodline Development (Arcane bloodline [Bonded Item])
11) ?
If I did my calculations right, I think I'm looking at a +20 when using Dispel Magic. 11 from caster level, +4 from Greater Dispel Focus, +1 trait from Gifted Adept, +2 from Potent Magic, +1 Varisian Tattoo, +1 Orange Ioun Stone. I can walk into pretty much any situation knowing what magic effects are active on targets with See Magic. Assuming only 24 Int by Lv11, it'll be a DC21 fort save against the Destructive Dispel effect.
I picked up Improved Counterspell for the situation that I want to auto-succeed. With Bloodline Development I can cast any spell I know 1/day, and I should know a plethora of spells to be able to counterspell whatever I need, so even if I don't have Magic Jar prepared I could still counter it.
A couple pieces of advice I'm looking for:
1) I didn't really consider the Counterspell exploit since it didn't seem any better than simply using Dispel Magic, and I get a higher chance of success with Dispel Magic. Is there any reason I should go back and consider that exploit?
2) What would a good 11th level Greater Exploit be for this build?
3) What are some other good options for me to focus on, other than dispelling? It won't make sense to go around dispelling magic effects on everyone, so what's something else I can get good at when I don't need to worry about dispelling magic?
Thank you!
