![]() ![]() So essentially with thrown weapons I would have to split my stats between “to hit” and “damage dealt” on top of that thrown weapons have alot of positives and negitives which I will list below however before I do, one that is not in the list is the fact that thrown weapons can not be bought off of “brokers” which is where players can sell magic items and other players can then buy the item off of the broker. I believe, I have seen (and this is easily verified by delving the starting short bow damage on a new weenie arm character) that it can have a negative effect on Bow damage. If you have a level of Ranger, it has a positive effect on Bow damage. It has no effect whatsoever on Crossbow damage, positively or negatively. The answer is: It definitely effects your Thrown Weapon damage, positively or negatively. You’re probably wondering: Does Strength affect your ranged weapons? I know halflings are known for their thrown weapon profetiancy and many of you are wondering why i didnt just go that route? well here is a look at ranged weapons. Mix that in with a 16-18 Dex Halfling, and you aren’t just archery support, you are practically a machine gun nest.ġD10 damage every second and with an 18+ dex you will hit 80% of the time. If you are not spending a lot of time changing targets, you can get off better than one bolt a second. Then rapid reload and repeatheavy crossbow together …. Now the repeating heavy crossbow shoots 3 bolts befor needing to be reloaded and takes only slightly longer than a normal crosbow to reload. Meaning you have a chance of doing 1-10 damage per shot on creation and with that high dex you get a +5 to hit at creation with that crossbow. secondly the heavy crossbows do 1D10 damage per shot. Notice how the first few feats are rapid reload and Heavy Repeating Crossbow? Basily the rapid reload alows your to shoot one bolt every 2 seconds as opposed to the 4 or so seconds it would take without it. And because your main focus is ranged this would be a wise choice. meaning you can take the place of a healer, sorcerer, or a wizard. A bard excells in these two areas and with both maxed can cast amazing buff spells and use just about any wand you come across. But, no matter what, you should put maximum rank into preform and use magic device. As a bard your social skills would be a wise choice (haggle, diplomacy, bluff). as a halfling your stealth would be a wise choice. Now, with skills feel free to put it into whatever you would like. Level 9 – Either “use magic device skill focus” OR “Extend spell” Level 3 – Repeating Heavy Crossbow Proficiency In this case will be used as a focused ranged support AKA a machine gun nest … so on to the stats. ![]() Halflings get a +1 to saving trows which is a huge help concidering this will be a highly specilized bard and every stat will be -1 except dex and cha.īefore looking at the stats just relize that a bard is mainly a “fill in the blank” class and is used for support. So let’s get start, here’s my take on a particularly effective Bard build. In actuality Bards aren’t likely to be a very popular class, however this particular build makes for a superb support class, and you can still pump out some nice damage as well. This is a superb build, which I felt needed to be shared with the members of Tault in detail. ![]()
