Ok so recently my normal role play group has decided to start another campaign based in Eberron (located in the town irontown of the province of karrenuth to be precise) and currently the group consists of a drunken master(i think that's what its called i could be mistaken), a bone knight, a bard and a paladin, one who is undecided,and then me. as you can see there is a lot of front line combat and divine but barely any utility excluding the bard because he really isn't doing much besides boosting the tanks of plenty with dragonfire inspiration.
so fellow forum goers here is the task at hand, with the lack of Arcane Casting and trap finding ability i'd like help making a character that can do both rather well with full casting are damn close to it (missing 1-3 levels is fine) and were starting at lvl 6
My Rolls for Attributes were as follows (18,18,16,14,14,12) and id like to play a whisper gnome. the books that are allowed are all of Eberron and any book that isnt campaign, 3rp party or dragon magazine
a few of the ideas i had were to be either
Beguiler 1/ transmuter 4/ ultimate magus 1
or
Beguiler 1/ conjurer 4/ ultimate magus 1
both of which would take all the ultimate magus levels to get the casting of both the beguiler and focused specialist wizard to be a high as possible (by the end being ecl 11 beguiler/ 11 conjurer by 15th level) then take the practiced spell caster feat for the wizard to make up the loss in casting that i would take from the PRC and 1 lvl dip in beguiler.
Additional rules to take note of is that two flaws are allowed and it is home ruled that if one class has a skill the other dose not it still counts as a class skill if you take a level in the class that doesn't have it.
anyways may the optimization commence, and let me know what you think of the ideas stated above. (also sorry if its a little hard to read or if there are any grammar/spelling issues i wasn't that fond of English class back when i was in school)
