'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' Raycasters are proficient with all simple weapons. Raycasters are proficient with light armor but not shields. A raycaster can cast raycaster spells while wearing light armor without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance. However, like any other arcane spellcaster, a raycaster wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield incurs a chance of arcane spell failure if the spell in question has a somatic component (most do). A multiclass raycaster still incurs the normal arcane spell failure chance for arcane spells received from other classes.
'''{{Anchor|Spells}}:''' A raycaster casts arcane spells which are drawn from the raycaster spell list. She can cast any spell she has retrieved, much A raycaster must choose and prepare her spells ahead of time like a [[bardwizard]] or [[sorcerer]] can cast any spell she knows without preparing it ahead of time.
To retrieve or cast a spell, a raycaster must have a mental ability score (chosen via Variable Casting) of at least 10 + the spell level (10 for 0-level spells, or 11 for 1st-level spells, and so on). The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a raycaster's spell is 10 + the spell level + the raycaster's chosen ability modifier.
Like other spellcasters, a raycaster can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. Her base daily spell allotment is given on Table 1—5: The raycaster. In addition, she receives bonus spells per day if she has a high chosen mental ability score.
Like a sorcerer, a raycaster knows only a small number of spells. However, each day a raycaster may change the spells she knows. When a raycaster meditates to regain her daily allotment of spells (see below), she redirects her arcane channels to react to her new spell selection. She can cast any spell she has retrieved at any time, assuming she has not yet used up her spells per day for that spell level. If a raycaster knows any metamagic feats, she applies them to her spells when she retrieves her spells for the day. For example, a raycaster might choose to retrieve an empowered ''[[SRD:Ray of Enfeeblement|ray of enfeeblement]]'' by using a 3rd-level spell retrieved slot. Any time she uses ''ray of enfeeblement'' during the ensuing day, she must use a 3rd-level spell slot to cast it, and it is always empowered. A raycaster could use a 1st-level spell slot and a 3rd-level spell slot to retrieve ''ray of enfeeblement'' and empowered ''ray of enfeeblement'' if she wanted to have both spells available to her in a day. A raycaster cannot choose to alter her spells with metamagic feats on the fly, as other spontaneous casters do. Raycasters using metamagic feats do not have an increased casting time as sorcerers do. Raycasters know all "ray" and "line" spells from any spell list, as well as the following spells.:
0&mdash;''[[SRD:Acid Splash|acid splash]]'', ''[[SRD:Arcane Mark|arcane mark]]'', ''[[SRD:Detect Magic|detect magic]]'', ''[[SRD:Light|light]]'', ''launch bolt''<sup>SpC</sup>, ''launch item''<sup>SpC</sup>, ''[[Ki Push/Mage Push (3.5e Spell)|mage push]]'', ''[[SRD:Read Magic|read magic]]'', ''[[SRD:Resistance|resistance]]''
