Ranged touch attacks when tied to BAB should not be so cheap, especially when you can get a second one and twf with them. |
Let's see, 8000gp cost for 2d6 damage on a ranged touch attack. It is a more expensive firearm that deals less damage, I see no problem with that. Please explain to me how this is diffrent from any other firearm aside from costing much more. --Furhammer (talk)
- Are we talking about PF guns? In that case, let me enumerate the ways...
- They are equivalent to pistols in that they can be used to TWF, yet do more damage.
- They are not limited to making ranged touch attacks at very short range (40' instead of 20').
- The biggest thing is that they have no chance of misfiring. This is by far the biggest downside of a gun, and this suffers no misfire chance whatsoever.
- In short, I would compare this more to a short-range brilliant energy longbow, with higher damage in recompense for the short range, rather than to a gun. --Ghostwheel (talk) 14:59, 6 May 2017 (MDT)
- We'll agree to disagree, then ;-) --Ghostwheel (talk) 15:08, 6 May 2017 (MDT)
- Just for reference, a pistol that has no misfire chance is priced at 73.3k. And another reason that came to mind--this requires no special training or investment in a specific class to be used. --Ghostwheel (talk) 15:16, 6 May 2017 (MDT)
