Does Hand of the Apprentice stack with Arcane Strike?

Or does the limit of Mage hand with non magical items prevent it?

I know Jason mentioned he was going to change the wording to allow magical weapons.

Current build, it wouldn't work because of non-magical. Alpha 3, it'll probably work if Jason remembers the change.

If your the DM or if your DM saw the post, there's no reason you can't use it now. Everyone that knows Sorcerers can cast cantrips at will unlimited are doing it even though Jason forgot. ;)

Actually at the moment I'm just character creating. Its my method of getting familiar with a set of rpg rules more intimately.

When I'm actually DMing, I am more concerned with keeping the game flowing than I am with looking up rules and thus have a tendency to just make a ruling on the fly. When I am building characters or encounters, I take the time to sit down and flip the pages, trying to pick up on the nuances of the rules.

My ruling would be that arcane strike needs to be channeled through the body of the arcanist. so the only option would be a directly wielded weapon. No dancing staves or any of that other nonsense.
