Arcane Shots

Arcane Shots are a set of class actions available to the Arcane Archer Subclass starting at Level 3. They are powerful attacks that use  Arcane Arrow to add additional effects to range attacks. They are recovered on Short Rest and are available in high numbers, allowing them to be used much more frequently than many other spells and class abilities.

Save DC

• If the arcane shot requires a save DC, the DC will be equal to 8 + your Proficiency Modifier + your Intelligence modifier

Bugs

• Piercing Arrow and Seeking Arrow interact with Damage Riders differently than the other arcane shots due to the lack of an attack roll. As a result, bonus damage from the  Titanstring Bow and from  Sharpshooter: All In are not applied, despite the tooltip showing otherwise. However, other Damage Riders that function similarly to a  Dipped weapon or  Lightning Charges do have their bonus damage applied with these arrows.
• Due to an incorrectly used DamageBonus function, the bonus damage that Arcane Shots deliver on striking an enemy is not doubled on a critical hit.
