Imbue Arrow - Feat 4, Archetype, Flourish
The Archer gains the ability to place an area spell on an arrow. The arrow is fired as part of the spellcasting action. The spells area of effect is centered where the arrow lands, even if it could usually only be centered on the Caster. This allows the Caster to use the bows range instead of the spell range.

Seeker Arrow - Focus 4
Uncommon, Transmutation, Magic Archer
Cast: 1 A Somatic
Your Arrow flies around corners and in seemingly impossible angles searching for its target. After you cast this spell your next arrow ignore cover and concealment but otherwise roll a normal attack. The path the arrow flies has to be tracable to the target and is susceptable to the usual modifiers of range.

Phase Arrow - Focus 8
Uncommon, Transmutation, Force, Magic Archer
Cast: 1 A Somatic
Your Arrow phases through solid matter. After you cast this spell your next arrow ignores, cover, concealment and shields as well as any nonmagical barriers along its path. Otherwise the attack is rolled normally

Well, did this out of boredom while watching repeated unskippable cutscenes in an mmo :P

Tell me that you think - this should certainly open up some possibilities for a number of casters (although it is probably not great with bards which want to play their music all the time)


Just skimming but a minor thing--your focus spells should probably be Focus 2 and Focus 4 respectively, since spell levels and class levels progress differently. Typically the focus spell granted by a feat is 1/2 the level of the feat itself, as that would be the highest level spell available to them if they were a spellcasting class.


You'Re right

of course this comes to late for an edit :P

but yeah, the focus spell levels are wrong

Sometimes it would be nice to be able to edit your posts for more then an hour
