So I have been looking at the magus class from the last playtest (I know it comes out in a month) and I was wondering what people thought were good combat styles for it
IE: 2 handed weapon, 2 weapon fighting (offhand as spell), 2 weapon fighting (offhand as weapon, using buffs primarly) or ranged
As I was looking at it, it seemed there were 3 prestige classes that would work well with it
First is the arcane archer. Elves get bonus to dex and int, and the class focuses on casting through the arrows and combining spells and archery
Second is the duelist. Since the 2WF offhand is a spell requires 1 weapon, duelist seems like a good way to augment the weapon side, but leaves the spell side as is
Third, and probally most obvious is the Eldrich Knight. A magus can take it at level 7, and the abilities combine nicely, on paper at least
Just wondering what people thought of it and if it prestige classes, what is the best option with each fighting style
