OK, after searching across the forums, I still am wondering: does Weapon Focus: Ray include/cover all ranged touch attacks, or just rays?
If not, can I take Weapon Focus: Touch Attack or Ranged Touch Attack?
And if not, why doesn't Ray include all RTAs? Is there some way to increase the chance to hit with a TA/RTA that doesn't involve raising STR or DEX and Base Attack Bonus - something like a feat or ability?
Also, the threads have a LOT of home rule advice, but nothing really definitive from Paizo/Pathfinder. A definitive answer (so I can apply to my PFS character) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Weapon Focuses and such apply precisely to what they say the do. So Weapon Focus: Ray applies to Rays, like longsword applies to longswords and not bastard sword or rapiers.
It doesn't apply because shooting a LAZ0R is different than lobbing flour into the air, or splashing a bucket of slop, or throwing a sticky grenade, or flicking a spider onto someone.
If you want to take feats to hit better with your LAZ0R5, take point blank shot and precise shot. If you want to hit better in general cast buffs on yourself, and get flanking for regular touch attacks.
