But a character could, for example, spend a move action getting out of the cone and then cast a spell. The beholder would likewise have to rotate to re-target a Focused Antimagic target (the primary benefit of this feat is for it to still have one target under the antimagic while blasting creatures that would otherwise be in the cone with eye rays).4.

You could give him a couple levels in beholder mage, and there's a fairly recent issue of Dragon (within 3.5 kind of recent, I don't remember the number) with a 3-level beholder abomination prestige class. In terms of normal classes, fighter and rogue would be mean additions to a beholder.6. Gauths would be good minions, but any charmed creature would do.
