| Sep 22, 2017 at 22:54 | comment | added | KRyan | @GreySage Can you cite a rule or ruling about non-ray attack-rolling spells? I would have assumed, based on the FAQ that minnmass links, such spells would also be considered weapon-like. | |
| Sep 22, 2017 at 22:13 | comment | added | GreySage | Note that not all spells that attack are "weaponlike". Shard of Chaos uses a ranged touch attack, but is NOT a ray, and so is not affected by Weapon Specialization-Ray, and suchlike. | |
