If you've not played Assault on Absalom, last chance to turn back. Okay? Okay.
So, Spell slinger! Super cool, and I'm super excited to try it out since I've never tried it before! I'm planning on doing a musket wielding blaster/sniper and switch hitting between big blaster effects and musket shots from a distance!
So, going full Spellslinger seems... meh, so right now my build is.
Sylph
Spell Slinger 1
Sorcerer Cross blooded Orc/Arcane 2-12
str 8
dex 16
con 10
int 16
wis 10
Cha 16
Point Blank Shot
Precise Shot
Intensifying Metamagic
Magical Lineage Snowball (Apply Intensifying metamagic for free as I get higher level to keep it useful)
Reactionary
Then, basically use things like Snowball, Mudball, ect, plus the boost from having both a arcane bond, arcane gun, and mage bullets to make impossible to stop DCs, and if I run out of magic, book it a distance start making long distance pot shots with the gun.
I know that using the spell slinger at all is gonna make this guy pretty lower tier, especially since Eldritch Archer isn't allowed (So disappointed when I realized that, it stacks perfectly) But I do wanna have some fun blowing stuff up! Any good ideas for builds, feats, spells that meet the requirements?

I've been working on another character pretty extensively and I'll finally be able to play that one at a convention this weekend but I have thought a little about about how to go about spellslinger.
It's almost for certain I'll be going blood arcanist or twilight sage as my primary levels. It lines up better as an INT caster. Exploits in general seem really good for a spellslinger.
I haven't figured out how viable attacking will be yet. I'm not sure theres enough feats in the world.

The problem is by moving it you'll get the folks who don't play PFS and never will chiming in, and they won't offer anything helpful and it'll turn into:
1. A debate on how the paladin should fall because there's a spoiler in the thread.
2. An EXACTING. SEMANTIC. DEFINITION. of EVERY. SINGLE. WORD.
3. The pop-corn munching snark-team that is going to sit there and wait for the perfect opportunity to... strike.
4. Certain forum members will use several different aliases to offer differing and sometimes contrary takes on the spoiler-ed item, all of which could be valid interpretations of the question/request.
Nah... I think it's pretty good right here, tbh.
