Water Whip has some nice tactical uses, but the range cripples it; if you can draw the flying creature within 30 feet of you, you can probably draw it into melee range, too. A flying spellcaster or archer, or a dragon using strafing tactics, is never going to get that close of its own free will.In any case, combat against long-range flying foes is a rare enough scenario that it's silly to build your character around it. It makes much more sense to pick a subclass that performs well in the majority of combats, and carry a shortbow for when you can't get into melee range.</blockquote>
