Canny magus is a magus archetype that focuses on fencing, combining spells with fencing tricks. It is a martial arts class of the Way of the Mind
Class Features
The canny magus has all the standard magus' class features, except as noted below.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
Canny magi are proficient with all simple and martial weapons. A canny magus is also proficient with light armor. He can cast magus spells while wearing light armor without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance. Like any other arcane spellcaster, a canny magus wearing medium armor, heavy armor, or a shield incurs a chance of arcane spell failure if the spell in question has a somatic component. A multiclass magus still incurs the normal arcane spell failure chance for arcane spells received from other classes.
Canny Defense (Ex)
When wearing light or no armor and not using a large or tower shield, a canny magus adds 1 point of Intelligence bonus (if any) per two class levels as a dodge bonus to CMD and Armor Class while wielding a melee weapon. If a canny magus is caught unarmed or is flat-footed or otherwise denied her Dexterity bonus, she loses this bonus. A canny magus with the Improved Unarmed Combat feat or a natural weapon cannot use those abilities to enable canny defense.
This replaces the medium armor and heavy armor abilities.
Improved Spell Recall (Su)
This is the same as the magus ability of the same name, but gained at level 13.
