Spellstrike + Bespell Weapon question

[dpb123]

Hi Boards,

Imagine I have a Starlit Span Magus with a wizard dedication via the free archetype rules ('cause my GM is awesome that way). And let's say that at level 10, I'm thinking of taking Advanced Arcana for Bespell Weapon. So here's my question:

Does the non-cantrip spell I cast via Spellstrike serve as an appropriate trigger for Bespell Weapon?

I think the answer is no because the cast a spell action is a subordinate action of spellstrike.

But on the off chance that the answer is yes, do I get the extra damage from bespell weapon on the spellstrike itself or just on a normal strike I make before the end of my turn (which admittedly would be a -10 MAP).

Thanks for your help!

You're correct; your most recent action would never have been to Cast a Spell, it would have been to Spellstrike.

For the off-chance argument you would get it on subsequent strikes, as the Spellstrike was the combined cast and strike, so could not benefit from the Bespell itself.

Thanks for confirming Asethe. I appreciate it.
