You draw a light crossbow back by pulling a lever. Normally, operating a light crossbow requires two hands. However, you can shoot, but not load, a light crossbow with one hand at a -2 penalty on attack rolls. You can shoot a light crossbow with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls as if attacking with two one-handed weapons. This penalty is cumulative with the penalty for one-handed firing. Light crossbows can be purchased in higher draw weights to match the Strength bonus of the wielder. This costs 35 gp per Strength mod plus added.
Load: Loading a light crossbow is a move action that provokes attacks of opportunity. The light crossbow belongs to the "Crossbows" weapon group. |
