Improved Aimed Shot (Combat)
You can maximize your chances of hitting with a ranged weapon.
Prerequisites
Base attack bonus +6, Point-Blank Shot
Benefit
As a standard action, you can make a single ranged attack as an aimed shot (see the Aimed Shot action below). You gain a +4 insight bonus to your attack roll. For every five points of base attack bonus you have above +6, this insight bonus increases by +1, to a maximum of +6 at at a base attack bonus of +16. You suffer a –2 dodge penalty to AC until the start of your next turn.
Aimed Shot Action As a full-round action, a character without this feat can give up all her regular attacks to make one ranged attack (but not a ranged touch attack) at a +2 insight bonus. The character suffers a –2 dodge penalty to her AC until the start of her next turn. A character making such an attack loses any spells she is maintaining, and any touch spells she has in hand.
Touch attacks don’t benefit from this action because a large part of it lies in targeting weak points in an opponent's armor, which touch attacks bypass automatically. You cannot use Manyshot or Rapid Shot with an aimed shot, since the extra missiles hinder your ability to aim.
