Spectral Whip

Use a whip to deliver touch based spells.

Prerequisites
Proficiency with whip, abilitiy to cast 2nd level spells.

Benefit
As part of casting a touch based spell of 4th level or lower, you can make a touch attack with a whip, effectively extending your reach, but suffering all the disadvanteges of using a whip including attatcks of opportunity.

Special
Since the attack of opportunity for using a whip while threatened is like using a ranged weapon, feats that allow for no attack of opportunity when using a ranged weapon may be selected for the whip.

Author's Note: Very interested in feedback for this feat. Should there be other requirements, such as 2nd level spell requirement, and 4th level max spell level based on the Spectral Hand spell? Another feat could be Greater Spectral Whip that would require Spectral Whip, but allow casting of up to 8th level spells. I think the whip it's self imposes enough of a downside that further restrictions are not required. However, if play testing finds Spectral Whip to require further restriction let me suggest that either Spectral Whip might require the use of a 2nd level spell slot for a day ou use (or some shorter duration), OR is usable 3+(caster atribut bounus)X /day.
