Hey all, I recently joined a PF1E campaign and decided I would play a magus. I've been doing a lot of research on how to build one and I've stumbled across a couple things I'd like to ask about.
1. Why specifically shocking grasp? I've heard a lot of sources say it's one of, if not the best damage spell for a magus and I would like to know what makes it so good.
2. I stumbled across a build guide that recommends the feat dervish dance so that I can viably use a scimitar, but why would I use a scimitar over a rapier when they have the same stats?
This is all I have to ask at the moment, any input is appreciated!
