''[[Summary::The compact item template is added to a ranged weapon to make it usable as if it was lighter.]]''
    
=== Requirements ===

To craft a compact weapon the crafter must have 8 or more ranks in [[SRD:Craft Skill|craft]] (weaponsmithing).

== Compact Weapons ==

The compact weapon template may only be added to non-bow ranged weapons; it allows you to wield the weapon as if its handedness was one step lighter. Additionally if the weapon was originally two-handed but could have been used one-handed with a penalty (such a [[SRD:Heavy Crossbow|heavy crossbow]] or [[SRD:Light Crossbow|light crossbow]]) the penalty vanishes. 

If this item template is applied on a weapon that was already light, you gain a +4 bonus on [[SRD:Sleight of Hand Skill|Sleight of Hand]] checks made to hide it. If the templated weapon held more than 1 ammunition its capacity is halved. The weight of a compact weapon is reduced by 25%.

'''Cost:''' 500 gp
