Rapid Reload (Feat)

Go back to Combat Feats page.

Rapid Reload

You can quickly reload one type of crossbow (hand, light, heavy) that you are proficient with.

Prerequisite: Weapon Proficiency (crossbow type chosen)

Benefit: The time required for you to reload your chosen type of weapon is reduced to a free action (for a hand or light crossbow), a move action (for heavy crossbow). Reloading a crossbow still provokes attacks of opportunity. If you have selected this feat for a hand crossbow or light crossbow, you may fire that weapon as many times in a full-attack action as you could attack if you were using a bow.

Normal: A character without this feat needs a move action to reload a hand or light crossbow, or a full-round action to load a heavy crossbow.

Special: You can gain Rapid Reload multiple times. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of crossbow.
