So I'm sitting here browsing the forums, sipping my coffee, when something strikes me:
Does it make more sense for a Dex-based Magus to get an Agile Rapier instead of getting Dervish Dance?
More specifically, does it make more sense for a Magus to take the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat instead of the Dervish Dance feat? Cat's Grace is on the Magus list, and with the crafting feat he can just add Agile to any weapon he wields. I'm thinking about ways to guarantee access to Dex-to-Damage. The way I see it, both methods will cost 1 feat slot. Dervish limits you to one weapon type. Craft takes more money, and doesn't come on until Magus 3 and an availability of funds, but allows you to save a lot in the long run by just making a good chunk of the party's gear.
Is it a poor opinion to think Crafting is superior to Dervishing? Is it better to front-load my Magus abilities at the cost of mid/late game money saving?
