The Watersinger archetype is just oozing with flavour and makes for a neat character, but it's a little vague as to the limits and capabilities of the Waterstrike ability. As such I am a little unsure of a few things.

1. Is Waterstrike a performance, or a separate ability? It calls out requiring Watersong to be active, but bards in general can't have two performances active at once, so how does that work? From what I understand it activates off of Watersong lingering for a round after it ends.

2. Assuming it is a performance, can Waterstrike be maintained? Or does it require another activation of Watersong to be used again? How does that factor into feats like Lingering Performance and Harmonic Spell?

3. What kind of action is performing a Waterstrike? Assuming it is a performance, one would assume it takes a standard action to activate on the first turn it is used, and then a free action to maintain. But if it is just an ability that costs a round of performance to use, is it then a free action to use?

4. Assuming it costs no actions to use, can one attack with a waterstrike as well as normal actions with weapons/spells/etc?

I think the problem here is that by RAW, the flight ability in the Race Builder doesn't explicitly call out HOW flight is achieved. It just says that the creature has a flight speed and is clumsy.

I'd allow it, but it would depend on how the GM interprets it.
