I'm looking over the archer in the hopes of making an archetype. However, looking over it, I think the class should naturally have the option of specializing in crossbows, rather than making an archetype.
Aim: I like the idea of this ability, but lowering initiative and only allowing one attack seem are very hefty penalties. Maybe make it a move action that affects the next attack you make, so that it will work with Vital Strike?
Aim seems like the crossbow specialist ability, as well. Having it be selectable against another ability focused on making lots of attacks instead of one big one would give the player more options.
Speaking of options, is there any reason why Archery Style doesn't allow a choice of feats? The ranger combat style's include a crossbow style as well.
Beyond that, I'd just like for the archer abilities to work with Crossbows as well as bows. What do you think?
