Point Blank Shot

[Wooly]

Does the Point Blank Shot feat work with the Magic Missile Spell. If so does it get the +1 bonus to damage per missile. My gut feeling is that it would not apply since it is not aimed like a ranged touch attack spell, but I would like a consensus ruling.

Your gut feeling is correct. There's no attack roll for magic missile, so damage bonuses from point-blank shot, weapon specialization, etc. do not apply. I believe this is explicitly covered in the FAQ ... I'll look for a page reference for you. (Not to say that you should blindly accept the FAQ, naturally. )

You find that in Complete Arcane. It details weapon-like spells and what feats they benefit from.

Thanks all.
