I will agree that +2 sounds about right. That's a ECL of 8, and Suggestion, Charm Monster, Ethereal Jaunt and Greater Teleport are all extremely good abilities for that level. Hell, two of those are level 7 spells. A Warlock has eldritch blast and 5 invocations, which must be 2 Lesser and 3 Least. The strongest spells a Bard would know would be three level three spells.

That is, of course, on top of +2 STR, +2 DEX, +2 CON, +6 INT, +4 WIS and a whopping +14 CHA, and her Outsider HD.

A Face/Skill monkey with 32 CHA (18 + racial), paired with those at will SLAs, the greatly enhanced survivability that is DR + SR + Resistances + Immunities + all good saves + 9 NA + Stat bonuses + Flight and skill points for days as frosting sounds more than reasonable at level 8.

Hell, you can even take Mindsight without a fuss, as if 100ft telepathy wasn't good enough.

Of course, a Succubus isn't what you should be looking at if you want someone to trade full attacks with a dragon. Even then, tho, a Charm Monster with a DC of 24 will and duration of 12 days will get you as many beatsticks as you can find. Say, a Young Adult Red Dragon (Will +13).
