We look at the new Magus class in Pathfinder 2E's Secrets of Magic. Pathfinder 2E's three-action economy allows for a class that can fight well with weapons, cast spells, and COMBINE the two while still being balanced with the system's other classes!

ADDITIONS: The Laughing Shadow hybrid study's higher extra damage with Arcane Cascade is only against flat-footed creatures. A Magus can use a *magical staff* as their melee weapon! And the Twisting Tree hybrid study lets you place property runes (flaming, ghost touch, etc.) on a magical staff!
