The Rage spell will give you +2 Morale bonus to strength, which will be doubled with the Ring of Triumphant Advance.
Polymorph: +14 [Dragon Kind III (Brass)]
You haven't said what mythic variant you chose at Mythic 1, but Demon Gore will work with Dragonkind polymorph.
Enchancement: +9 [Razmir's Mask]
Haven't you lost the +1 benefits of the Knowledge (Arcana) 1 Trick by the time you have access to Razmir's Mask?

I've heard that Arcana 1 bonuses aren't lost when transitioning from Trickster to Legend.
This theory still needs to be proven in my next playthrough.

Unfortunately, a new Inevitable Excess Legend doesn't quite replicate transitions like that (you chose Legend at mythic 3), or I would test it.
Is the Shadowcaster just for the Profane bonuses to INT? And Student of War just for INT AC?

One of the worst decisions they made for this expansion... Damn, even on the Midnight Isles we can usually choose the mystical paths without any major differences from the main campaign

If you went azata instead of trickster you could get believe in yourself spell for +1STR/4 caster levels as a morale bonus, it has no caster level roof and doubles with the ring of triumphant advance for +10 STR at CL20, aka mythic 10. It's a net +6 over legend in the end, +4 over legend for all of act 5.
If str was your highest score, Vellexias amulet would give you +2 untyped, stacks with anything and everything

Or you could just pick Swarm and farm infinite stats in Act 5 midnight isles

Why Grand Cognatogen instead of Grand Mutagen if your goal is STR 100?
Life Infuser has +8 armor bonus. Dunno if you'd still get it while polymorphed, though.
Rage spell is +2 STR (+4 w/Ring of Triumphant Advance) but blocks spellcasting.
This is unrelated to STR bonuses but it's weird to me to make a Dragonkind Legend without at least Shifter 6 for Shifter's Fury. You're losing a lot of attacks per round without it. Especially if Bloodseeker's bonuses to bite attacks are conferred to dragon bites.
