Vital Strike, Improved Natural Attack, and all the other options that modify natural attacks and attack actions. Which, if any, can modify a witchfire's attack?
Created this so as not to derail the over/under CRed thread.

I'd treat it exactly as a ghost's corrupting touch, except that it does fire damage and has no save for partial damage (this in itself is a significant power increase). It applies witchflame as a separate supernatural ability.
Corrupting touch is a Supernatural ability. The ghost activates it by the Use a Supernatural Ability standard action. There's also reason to think a witchfire, at least, can use it as as an attack of opportunity, because she has the Combat Reflexes feat that would otherwise be pointless.
Vital Strike does not apply because it's not an Attack action. Improved Natural Attack does not apply (nor would strong jaw) because it's not a natural attack.
