Spell Ranged Attack and Quicksilver Mutagen.

[SteelGuts]

Do you think that the quicksilver mutagen apply to spell ranged attack? They are ranged, but they don't use Dexterity so we have a disagrement here with our DM, because for him it increase only agile things, not your ability to increase your magic.

spell attack and ranged attack are 2 completely different things.

yes, spell attack CAN be ranged or melee, but it's still "spell attack".

in short, the game makes a very cleared and defined statement that:
melee attacks, ranged attacks, and spell attacks are 3 different things. (p. 446-447)

so you can't use quicksilver for spell attacks, even if they are ranged ones.
