which spell casting list would you choose for a samurai? I am in tier 3, and I dont expect to pass tier 6. I would like form of the dragon (imperial dragon), but that is level 6, and it is vey unlikely we reach that tier.
So, to increase utility of my marital samurai, which spells would you choose and from what list? at the moment I have fly, and I can obtain enlarge weapon from other source...
I think you're confusing character level and spell level, but I'm not sure. What exactly is it you mean by 'tier'?

sorry. I am meaning mythic tier (champion). Spellcasting of legendary weapon is tied to mythic tier.
Right now, the party is level 8 average, and 3 mYTHIc tiers. I don't expect to receive more than other 3 mythic tiers, being very generous. Maybe we ended at tier 4 at most.
I chose spell casting to add some utility to my samurai, because, as cool as I am with my resolve and challenge, I only hit things during combat. But I am having difficulties choosing the spell casting list for that. As I dont have great charisma, I should choose only spells to target myself or my allies, to avoid low DC saves.
I want fly, that is both in wizard and cleric, and I can use it because being a 3 tier allows to choose 3 level spells. If by any chance we get to tier 6, I would take form of the imperial dragon (sky dragon), that fits with my samurai. But apart of that, there are many options. Enlarge person is a good one, but I think I could enlarge myself from other sources. Haste is good but combat related, same with strength of bull. What other spells can offer me utility, from level 1 to 6?
Have you considered Mythic Paragon? You may want to run it past your GM, but it should allow you to count as 2 tiers higher for your weapon.
As for the spell list, that's a tough one. I would probably go with magus, though I think any spell list that has form of the dragon would be fine.

if my master allows the spell heroic fortune (he doesn't like third party, but that is not exactly third party), I may take alchemist. Heroics fortune is really versatile, although it has a short duration.
mythic paragon. Benefit: Your tier is considered 2 higher for determining the potency of mythic abilities, feats, and spells. This doesn’t grant you access to mythic abilities or greater versions of mythic spells at a lower tier than you would normally need to be to get them, nor does it grant you additional uses of mythic power or adjust the dice you roll for your surge.
For the spellcasting: This item allows its bearer to cast a limited number of spells as spell-like abilities. This ability can be taken more than once. Each time it’s taken, the bonded creature gains 5 points to spend on selecting what spells the item can cast. A spell costs a number of points equal to its level (minimum 1). The bearer can then activate the item to use each spell-like ability once per day. By spending double the cost, the bearer can use each spell-like ability three times per day. All spells must come from the same class’s spell list. No spell can have a level higher than the bonded creature’s tier. The caster level for these spells is equal to double the bonded creature’s tier. The save DC for these spells is equal to 10 + the spell level + the bonded creature’s tier.
I think that with this I could take one level 5 spell at tier 3. More options to consider.
Now, I have another question. With mythic paragon, can I take legendary item twice at tier 3?
Legendary Item (Ex)
You gain a legendary item. This item grants a number of abilities equal to your tier (maximum 3). At 3rd tier, you can select this ability again, increasing the maximum to six abilities and causing the item to become a lesser artifact. At 6th tier, you can select this ability again, increasing the maximum to 10 abilities; the item then becomes a greater artifact.
So, at tier 3, with mythic paragon, I could expend two of my path abilities in legendary item, to have a lesser artifact with 5 abilities.
