Arcane Stike (CW) Question

[OfRiceAndHen]

Can you use Arcane Strike to increase your ranged touch attack modifier? The wording at the beginning of the feat implies regular melee attacks only, but later on it says all attack rolls.

 

[pawsplay]

And damage with your weapon. Although that particular sentence is ambiguous, the description of the feat overall is pretty clear; the bonuses apply to a particular melee weapon.

 

[Xath]

That whole feat (while very cool) is very ambiguously written. But I'm going to have to agree with pawsplay. Unless your GM says otherwise, it's a melee attack. I wouldn't limit it to weapons though. I'd still allow unarmed and melee touch attacks to use the benefits of this feat.

Note that spectral hand specifies that touch attacks you make when casting spells through it are still melee touch attacks.

Note that spectral hand specifies that touch attacks you make when casting spells through it are still melee touch attacks.

Which is why a Wiz/Rog can sneak attack from over a hundred feet away with it

-Hyp.

Heh. The real nastiness comes when an assassin makes a death attack from that kind of distance.
