Hi I am starting a new campaign soon, it will be mostly PF but some 3.5 will be aloud. I don't know what the other classes will be yet. We will probably have the typical rogue and healer and fighter type as well and possibly another spell caster.
So I am free to pick pretty much whatever and at first wanted to make wizard/incantrix but then I saw Magus and that class really interested me. I especially like the shocking grasp cheese you can pull off. I was thinking of Cabalist and going Orc for the bloodline and using Spontaneous Metafocus to get around the spontanius casting metemagic spells with spell combat.
While I was looking into bloodlines I noticed humans get bonus spells as a sorcerer which eliminates the reason I always hated sorcerers. And with the extra spells the Battle Sorcerer variant seems more appealing to. I have always liked the idea of spell caster being able to melee as well.
I want to DPS mainly and use control secondary and both classes appeal to me about the same. So should I stick with cabalist magus or try out the crossblooded(orc/darconic) sorcerer and blast everything to crispy bits ? Or combine the the 2 and try out a Battle Sorcerer?
Edit: hexcrafter added to the magus and taking slumber seems pretty dam useful too. 3.5 stuff from complete mage and complete arcane will probably be aloud Everything else I would have to run past the DM, he is pretty accepting.
