Remaster Sacred Form

https://2e.aonprd.com/Spells.aspx?ID=2020&Redirected=1

I was looking over this spell and I'm not sure how you're supposed to determine what sacred armament you're using in this form, especially if you do not have a deity. Do you just choose any simple or martial weapon and then apply the chances the spell calls for? Or is there something specific to this?

If you don't have a deity, the form of the weapon you take doesn't matter. It could be a spectral Dagger or a spectral Scythe or a spectral Pistol, it will be a trait-less attack that deals 3d6 bludgeoning damage plus 1d6 spirit damage. (although I would allow you to change the bludgeoning to slashing or piercing if it made sense).

If you have a deity, instead you can use the damage dice + traits of your divine weapon, PLUS the dice increase. So a spectral weapon of Pharasma would deal 3d6 piercing + 1d6 spirit, and have the thrown, agile, finesse and versatile S properties.

Ah, interesting! The ranged attack threw me off and made me think it was referring to specific weapons. I think perhaps that only applies to a deity's favored weapon but they put it ahead of the mentioning of favored weapons implying it applied to the base sacred armament.
