Hello, I am trying to figure out if I can allow one of my players to select an extra Arcane Shot Option, so he’ll have 3 at 3rd level instead of 2. Is this possible, in any way?
How hard (or easy) would it be to homebrew an Arcane Archer to have Arcane Shot based on INT? IE, 1 AS per INT bonus.
This thread is like a year and a half old, so you'd be better off just making a new thread altogether in the future. Site Rules and Guidelines are here for more information on thread Necromancy.
As for your question though, homebrewing a version of Arcane Archer to have Arcane shots based on INT modifier is pretty easy to do. Just make a copy of the Arcane Archer subclass, then edit the Arcane Shot class feature. In that menu you'll see an Action (also called Arcane Shot) click the edit button there and find the Limited Use option at the bottom. All you'll need to do is switch the number of uses from 2 total to 0 and change the stat modifier to scale of of Intelligence.

D&D Beyond FoundersHi there Lashir,
you could use the homebrew system to create a copy of the Arcane Archer subclass and tweak it.
It will automatically be shared with anyone in your campaign (though they'll need to have homebrew switched on for the character).

Or if you wanna get weird, make a special bow that must be attuned to an arcane archer, which gives an extra shot.
I purchased the Arcane Archer subclass for $2 and did as Stormknight suggested. That's worked great.

BTW, thanks so much. The Arcane Shot slots are now based on Int modifier. Much appreciated.
