![]() Thrown ones particularly, if nothing else. I personally would just allow Barbarian abilities to work with ranged weapons. There's no reason to get rid of ranged Paladins and Barbarians, it's just trying to artificially inflate character "variety" by making people pick a different class just to have a certain fighting style. One of the worst things about 5e is its pigeonholing of character concepts. Or event allow a Str/Str shortbow and allow rage with that specific shortbow. Maybe allow rage to 60ft and allow arrows shot within 60ft to be treated as Str/Str weapons with a 20/60 range (like a handaxe throwing barbarian). So I think your idea of a Dex atk/Str damage bow and a 15ft range on Rage to be a good idea. Of these features, only Reckless Attack gets noticable stronger if allowed on ranged attacks (it expects you to be attacked). The Strength Bow Barbarians misses out on Rage, Reckless Attack, and basical +atk/+damage The Dexterity Bow Barbarian misses out on Rage and Reckless Attack Each of these would tweak the mechanics slightly differently. You could have a Dexterity Bow Barbarian or a Strength Bow Barbarian. So I will stick to the hypothetical case of making a Bow Barbarian. But you don't need our help for that case. ![]() You are following up on a character idea to double check to see which exiting mechanics would be applicibleĭepending on the follow up, an Outlander Ranger or some other existing option might fit. You are thinking about reasonable tweaking of mechanics to accommodate reasonable character ideas I'm hoping to talk with him soon to discuss whether a Ranger or Fighter would also fit his character concept, but it would be nice to know going in to that conversation how his request (bow barbarian) would work mechanically. I've also considered giving him a bow with a harder draw weight that uses Dex to hit but Str for damage, but that is much more mechanically complicated to think about so it is still more of a rough draft. I'm wondering what the harm would be of allowing him to Rage so long as he shoots each turn from within 15 feet, and saying Rage bonus damage applies to shots within that 15 foot range. I warned him that just about every class feature specifies a boost to melee weapons. (Players have been given advice on builds from a more experienced player but I want to encourage them to go with character ideas in favor of mechanical excellence.)Ī new player would like to be a barbarian and play with a bow. Be careful though, this crossbow is so good that you might kill one of your teammates while shooting with this bloody thing.Hi all, I'm writing as a new DM worried about breaking the balance in a low-op game. You can fire this goddamn thing at somebody from 100 meters and TAKE OFF ONE OF THEIR LIMBS. This thing is basically as powerful as the AWP in CS:GO. Range, depending on the grade of the weapon can reach between 82-137 meters Uses regular bolts(these types of bolts are common and easy to get) Equipping these bows on multiple characters can guarantee your victim to be chain stunned for years! The range is greatly increased, combining this with slightly better damage output per shot and fast reload speed(2.5 - 4.5 sec) makes this one of the most useful bows to have in Kenshi. Deals 2 times more damage than the Ranger Impressive velocity(at masterwork grade, it can reach even 137 m/s) This cupcake is worth getting if you need to deal plenty of damage in a reasonably small amount of time. This is a bow that deals significantly more damage than the Ranger and maintains the second-best accuracy for the ranged weapons. Apparently, it’s so stronk that it can take off limbs. I’ve had plenty of fun using this thing against the Bugmaster and it did its job - I ended up giving the Bugmaster to one of the Shek strongholds and was no longer a pushover while entering Squin. This is another great early-game crossbow that deals plenty of damage to bandits that have no armor. Fastest reload time in the crossbow weapon category It’s a perfect ‘crossbow” if you’ve just begun playing a new character and are looking for poor starving bandits to practice on! Ranger is a ranged weapon that will definitely put a smile on your face because of its quick reload time. Looks like a bolt-action rifle, but it’s considered to be a crossbow. Eagle cross is specifically harder to get as it’s considered to be a rare item, thus it might take you some time to finally find it in a shop!Īnyways, let’s start with our first ranged weapon: 5. You can get ALL of these crossbows/bows in most of the ranger shops. You can also create a squad of rangers and execute everyone in a matter of seconds! Keep in mind: Crossbows are for those who are sick of losing their limbs while melee fighting Skimmer, Gorillos, Bandits, and other hostile creatures that wish to destroy your day.
