As per title: Thought of a way to homebrew conditionless ex damage on mundane ranged. It can scale up over time too.
A form of regeneration that allows a character to grow quills at a rapid rate. They can fire these quills at a range increment of say 100 feet. They get bonus damage at certain points (say every x levels of a class or prc). This ability could therefore be completely Extraordinary. It's even plausible that they could work under water and in increasing wind conditions. If more realism is required, it could require food to recharge and rapidly convert the excess matter.
You could also even combine it with an (Ex and Su) ability to copy features of a held weapon onto the quills. Ex for materials and Su for converting the quills to a material as well as the magical properties applied.
To strain credulity even further (to... interesting heights) you could say that rapid bizarre evolutions permit overcoming things like swarm or ooze immunity to damage. Wind effects altogether. A black hole. Etc.
Just some thoughts.
Edit: Almost want to make a quill master base class or prc... more likely base class. Maybe an overall theme of bizarre yet extraordinary evolution.
