Arcane Strike

Quick Question about Arcane Strike

Does it have a usage limit apart from having to burn a Swift Action every turn?


No, you can use it all day, every day. If it had daily uses, it would say so.


No limit. Strike away.

(I suppose one could argue that a character would temporarily lose the feat's prerequisite if if they completely depleted their arcane spells for the day, but I'm not gonna be the one to do so.)


There's a related feat which has usage restrictions, caster's champion, but arcane strike has no such limits. Compare the wording if you like.

No, I suppose not.But if he's no longer qualified as an arcane spell caster(due to negative levels etc), then the feat will be disabled.

Wouldn't your Cantrips still count?

Yeah, there goes that non-argument. : D

Bloodragers though.

Not that I'd consider being out of spells for the day a basis for not being able to use arcane strike. You still have the capability to cast those spells, you just are out of your uses for the day, essentially.


Alchamists with spell knowledge as well. Or the odd investigator archetype that turns alchemy into casting arcane spells, but doesn't changes the slots so lacks cantrips.
