I have an idea for a wisdom based Horizon Walker. I was thinking of taking shillelagh and produce flame from the Druidic Warrior fighting style. Produce flame is purely so that I at least have one ranged option when it is necessary, but I would primarily be a melee fighter. I know that hunter's mark works with only weapon attacks but I noticed that the description of favoured foe only states "when you hit with an attack roll", not with a "weapon attack."

Would produce flame be able to benefit from, and apply the damage from, Favoured Foe?

Favored Foe works with any cantrip that uses an attack roll.

Favored Foe says:

When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can call on your mystical bond with nature to mark the target as your favored enemy for 1 minute or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell).

Produce Flame says:

Make a ranged spell attack.

If it hits, you can use Favored Foe. It doesn't specify melee or ranged, weapon or spell. It works with any attack roll.

Note, it doesn't work with cantrips that use saving throws, such as sacred flame.
