A combatant can score critical hits with either type of attack. A combatant's opponent's AC against a touch attack does not include any armor bonus, shield bonus, or natural armor bonus. The target's size modifier, Dexterity modifier, and deflection bonus (if any) all apply normally. If youlook under "ranged attacks," it only talks about using melee weapons.Can anyone find me where in the rules it says that you can't hold a ranged touch attack or reroll on a miss?
