Elemental Arrows: When you make a weapon attack with a bow, you can imbue the arrows you fire with your chosen element dictated by you Elementalist levels.

Siege Spells: When you cast a spell through your bow, you may spend 3 MP. If you do, triple that spell's range.

Beam Arrows (fifth level only): Once per combat, when making a weapon attack with your bow, you can choose to fire a beam of energy imbued with your chosen element. If you do, that attack target's each creature in a straight line of a distance equal to twice your bow's length. instead of a single creature and the damage of the attack increases by 1d8 of your chosen element. You may activate this ability additional times in combat, but you must spend an 20 MP every time you wish to do so besides the first time it is used in a given combat.
