Eldritch Archer - an Arcane Archer variant for Warlocks

Eldritch Archer

Eldritch Archers are a variant of the popular Arcane Archer prestige class, designed for Warlocks instead of arcane casters.

Requirements

Eldritch Archers have the same requirements as Arcane Archers, except that Eldritch Archers do not need the ability to cast 1st level arcane spells. Instead, they need to be able to cast least invocations and eldritch blast (1d6).

Eldritch Archers have the same class skills, skill points per level, BAB progression and save progression as Arcane Archers.

Class Features

Eldritch Archers get the Enhance Arrow, Seeker Arrow, Phase Arrow, Hail of Arrows and Arrow of Death features, just as Arcane Archers do. However, they do not get the Imbue Arrow Ability. They get the following instead:

Eldritch Blast and Invocations: At each level, the caster level of your invocations improves as if you had gained a level of warlock (this includes eldritch blast damage). You don’t gain any new invocations known or any other benefit of gaining a level in the warlock class, however.

Eldritch Shot (Sp): This invocation (Lesser, 3rd, Blast Shape), learned at 2nd level, allows you to make a single ranged attack with a bow as a standard action. If you hit, the target is affected as if struck by your eldritch blast (including any eldritch essence invocation applied to the blast). This damage is in addition to any weapon damage that you inflict with your attack, although you don’t need to deal damage with this attack to trigger the eldritch blast effect.

Elves work, too, given the fey blooded angle given for the class in addition to the fiendish/infernal. or you could just get rid of the racial requirement. It's not like it's that amazing* a class anyway. :)

* by that I mean powerful
