Ranger Combat Style: Arcane

An additional combat style favoring magical aptitude.

Combat Style: Arcane
If the ranger selects arcane, at 2nd level and every even level thereafter, the ranger gains new spells per day as if he had also gained a level in an arcane spellcasting class he belongs to.  He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained, except for additional spells per day, spells known (if he is a spontaneous spellcaster), and an increased effective level of spellcasting. He may choose to which class he adds the new level for purposes of determining spells per day if he possesses more than one arcane class.  This replaces the Rangers' 2nd level Combat Style feat, as well as his ability to cast divine spells that begins at 4th level.

The ranger can choose from the following list whenever he gains a combat style feat:

6th Level - Arcane Strike, Arcane Armor Training, Combat Expertise, and Craft Magic Arms and Armor.
10th Level - Arcane Armor Mastery and Spell Penetration.
