4th Level
Scorching Ray
The idea is at level 7 you use Arrowsong Strike with the Dead Aim Deed to make a touch attack with a bow to deliver the touch spell. Here we use Intensified Spell to make Shocking Graps up to 10d6. You do need a round for buffs, but you will make your party happy with Bardic Performance.
Example Level 8
Assuming
Base Attack +6
+1 Longbow
20 Dex +5 (Belt of Dex)
Total of +12
Buffs
Pre Fight: 80 Min Heroism +2 to Attack, 80 Min Flame Arrow 1d6 Fire
During Fight
Round 1: Swift Action: Tiger Focus +2 Dex, Move: Lingering Bardic Performance +2 Att/Damage, Standard: Gravity Bow 2d6
Round 2: Swift Action: Arcane Strike +2 att/dam, Standard: Arrowsong Strike With Dead Aim (Vs. Touch), Deadly Aim (-2 Att, +4 damage), and Intensified Shocking Grasp attached (8d6)
That's +15 for 2d6+10 Physical + 8d6 Electric + 1d6 Fire
+15 at level 8 Vs. Touch on 1 attack
11d6+10
43 damage on touch
Vs. 3 Rapid Shot Attacks instead of Intensified Spell at 2d6+10 Physical + 1d6 Fire
+13/+13/+8 Vs. Standard
9d6+30
19/38/57 Damage assuming they all hit.
