Can focused shot be used with rapid shot or many shot? Or is it simply for one attack?

I don't see it on the list of feats in the PRD (http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/feats.html).

Where is it from? Are you sure you have the name right?

I don't think so. The rapid shot requires a full attack action and the focused shot requires a standard action or single attack.

You might be able to convince a GM to let you apply the focused shot bonus on one attack of a full attack round and have rapid shot function for other attacks.

Hmm. I agree, it doesn't apply to any kind of multi-attack. And without GM houseruling, it doesn't even apply to the first attack of an attack routine. It says it's a standard action.

All in all it seems like a weak feat. I would seek extra damage from elsewhere. This would only be helpful at low levels but the prereqs mean you won't get it till L3 or L5.

It's listed under "advanced feats" since it was published in the Advanced Players Guide.

That's unfortunate. I had been giving this guy a high intelligence score for rp purposes and was hoping to get a little more use out of it then just an extra skill point, which is nice, and an extra language, also kinda nice but not ass nice as the first.

I honestly don't know why they limited Focused Shot like that. If it were my game I would probably change it so it just applied automatically.

With that many prereqs it doesn't make sense that it's so limiting in function.
