Hand of the Apprentice - Weapon Specialization


Rules Questions


Given a PC with Weapon Focus (longsword) and Weapon Specialization (longsword) due to levels in the fighter class as well as being a Universalist Wizard, would the feat bonus of +1 to attack and +2 damage still apply when using Hand of the Apprentice to attack with the longsword at range?


By direct wording, I see no reason why it wouldn't apply. Weapon focus gives you bonus on all attacks made with that weapon. Hand of the apprentince lets you make an attack with some changes (int instead of physical ability) and some limitations (can't use it to make combat maneuver).

Also, I see no reason why it shouldn't. I can't see it as being overpowered. Especially as the ability has been capped to int+3 times per day.
