You gain access to the Arcane Archer enhancement tree from Tier 3 of the Elf (or Half-Elf or Morninglord or Wood-elf) Racial Enhancement tree. You need to click the "Accept" button before you can select the Arcane Archer (Elf) tree.
The Elven Arcane Archer tree uses your total character level instead of Ranger level for requisites, but advances Core Abilities at a slower rate. not reaching capstone until well into epic levels (what would be Level 20 in the Ranger AA tree). You cannot spend action points in both the Ranger: Arcane Archer and Elf: Arcane Archer trees.
Glitch: Sometimes when you reset the elf tree its arcane archer abilities will still work without the tree being visible nor costing any enhancement points confirmed with the enhancement bonus and conjure arrows.
