Armes Supplémentaires et Exotiques

Exotic weapons and armor require an incredible level of skill to wield or wear properly, as they are often unusually heavy, oddly balanced, or bizarre in construction. As such, no class (other than the craftsman) gains proficiency with the exotic weapons and armor presented in this chapter. For a member of another class to gain proficiency with exotic weapons and armor, they must take the Exotic Mastery feat (see Chapter 4).

Firearms

Firearms represent a paradigm shift in the art of warfare, fueling everything from powerful siege weapons to concealable, handheld guns. In many campaign settings, firearms supplant the traditional scheme of weapons, forcing arrows, swords, and battleaxes into obsolescence. They might even be commonplace, a staple tool for hunting and defense. Firearms follow slightly different rules to conventional ranged weapons and generally use two or more damage dice.

Blasters used in futuristic settings are considered firearms and use these rules as well.

– Firearm Damage Rolls: Unlike other weapons, you don’t add your ability modifier to the damage roll of a firearm unless otherwise stated.

– Two-Weapon Fighting with Firearms: When you engage in two-weapon fighting with two light firearms, you subtract 2 from the damage roll of the bonus attack, to a minimum of 1 damage.

– Firearm Ammunition: All firearms require special ammunition. Most firearms use bullets, but some require even more specialized projectiles. The ammunition of a firearm is destroyed upon use.

Ammunition	Cost	Weight
Blunderbuss shot (10)	1 gp	2 lb.
Bullets (10)	2 gp	2 lb.
Cannonball	5 gp	10 lb.

Weapon Properties Many weapons have special properties related to their use, as shown in the weapons tables.

Ammunition. You can use a weapon that has the Ammunition property to make a ranged attack only if you have ammunition to fire from the weapon. Each time you attack with the weapon, you expend one piece of ammunition. The ammunition of a firearm is destroyed upon use. Drawing the ammunition from a quiver, case, or other container is part of the attack (you need a free hand to load a one-handed weapon). At the end of the battle, you can recover half your expended ammunition by taking a minute to search the battlefield. If you use a weapon that has the Ammunition property to make a melee attack, you treat the weapon as an improvised weapon. A sling must be loaded to deal any damage when used in this way.

Automatic. When you make an attack with this weapon on your turn, you can choose to make two attacks instead. These attacks are always made with disadvantage, regardless of circumstance. These attacks use twice the normal amount of ammunition.

Concealable. While stowed, you have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to conceal this weapon.

Double. This weapon has two damage-dealing ends. When you take the Attack action and make an attack with this weapon, you can use your bonus action to make an additional attack with it; you do not add your ability modifier to the damage roll of this bonus attack.

Dry. If this weapon is ever submerged in water or doused with a significant quantity of water, it jams. A jammed firearm can’t be used to make an attack until a creature uses its action to clear the weapon malfunction.

Elegant. This weapon requires exceptional skill to use. You must have a Dexterity score of 16 or higher to wield an elegant weapon.

Explosive. When this weapon’s projectile hits a target, it explodes in a 15-foot diameter sphere. The projectile can target an unoccupied space within its range. Each creature other than the target within the blast radius (for a Medium or smaller target, each creature within 5 feet of it) must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking half the damage rolled on a failed save or no damage on a successful one.

Finesse. When making an attack with a finesse weapon, you use your choice of your Strength or

Dexterity modifier for the attack and damage rolls. You must use the same modifier for both rolls.

Fist. Attacks made with this weapon are treated as unarmed strikes.

Foregrip. This weapon can be used with one or two hands. If used in two hands, its normal range increases by 50 feet and its long range increases by 200 feet.

Heat. This weapon gains 1 heat point whenever an attack is made with it, and it loses 1 heat point at the start of each of your turns. If the weapon has 3 heat points, it overheats and loses all heat points. An overheated weapon can’t be used to make an attack again until the end of your next turn.

Heavy. Small creatures have disadvantage on attack rolls with heavy weapons. A heavy weapon’s size and bulk make it too large for a Small creature to use effectively.

Light. A light weapon is small and easy to handle, making it ideal for use when fighting with two weapons.

Loading. Because of the time required to load this weapon, you can fire only one piece of ammunition from it when you use an action, bonus action, or reaction to fire it, regardless of the number of attacks you can normally make.

Massive. You can only make an attack with this weapon on your turn. Once you make an attack with this weapon, you can’t attack again until the start of your next turn. If you would be able to attack more than once when you take the Attack action on your turn, you deal an extra two dice of damage for each attack you forgo when using this weapon.

Misfire. When you roll a 1 on the d20 for an attack roll with this weapon, it jams. A jammed weapon can’t be used to make an attack until a creature uses its action to clear the weapon malfunction.

Mounted. This weapon is normally used while attached to a tripod, vehicle, or other bracing mount. You can mount or unmount this weapon as an action. While it is mounted, it can’t be moved. It can only be used to make an attack while unmounted if held by a Medium or larger creature with a Strength score of at least 15.

Parrying. While wielding this weapon and not wielding a shield, you gain a +1 bonus to your AC.

Reach. This weapon adds 5 feet to your reach when you attack with it, as well as when determining

your reach for opportunity attacks with it.

Reload. This weapon can be used to make a number of attacks before it must be reloaded. If you are proficient with the weapon, reloading it takes a bonus action; otherwise, reloading it takes an action. Some weapons require an action or longer to reload, even if you have proficiency, which is specified in the Reload property. If reloading a weapon requires longer than one action, the weapon can’t be used to make attacks until reloading is finished.

Returning. After being thrown, this weapon returns to your hand at the end of your turn.

Rocket. This weapon has a small propulsive engine attached to it or its projectiles. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with this weapon, you can deal an extra 1d4 damage to the target.

Scatter. If you make an attack against a target that is within half this weapon’s normal range, you deal the damage value listed in parentheses instead of the weapon’s normal damage dice.

Sighted. This weapon has disadvantage on attack rolls made against targets within 20 feet.

Special. A weapon with the special property has unusual rules governing its use, explained in the weapon’s description (see “Special Weapons”).

Superheavy. This weapon is unusually large for its type. You must have a Strength score of 16 or higher to wield a superheavy weapon.

Switch. This weapon has two forms. You can swap between which weapon is being used at any time, even between attacks.

Tension. When making a ranged weapon attack with a tension weapon, you use your choice of your Strength or Dexterity modifier for the attack and damage rolls. You must use the same modifier for

both rolls.

Thrown. If a weapon has the Thrown property, you can throw the weapon to make a ranged attack.

If the weapon is a melee weapon, you use the same ability modifier for that attack roll and damage roll that you would use for a melee attack with the weapon. For example, if you throw a handaxe, you use your Strength, but if you throw a dagger, you can use either your Strength or your Dexterity, since the dagger has the Finesse property.

Trip. You can make a shove attempt against any creature within this weapon’s reach. Furthermore, the creature has disadvantage on the saving throw to avoid beeing shoved by this weapon.

Twinshot. Once on each of your turns when you make an attack with this weapon, you can make another attack with it against a different creature that is within 5 feet of the original target and within this weapon’s range.

Two-Handed. This weapon requires two hands when you attack with it.

Versatile. This weapon can be used with one or two hands. A damage value in parentheses appears with the property—the damage when the weapon is used with two hands to make a melee attack.

Equipment

Weapons with special properties are described here.

Bayonet. As an action, a bayonet can be mounted to any two-handed ranged weapon or removed from it. While mounted, you can use the bayonet to make a two-handed melee weapon attack, which deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit.

Bolas. A creature hit by a bolas falls prone until it is freed. A creature can use its action to make a DC 10 Strength check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5 slashing damage to the bolas (AC 10) also frees the creature without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the bolas. You can only throw one bolas on your turn.

Bomb. When a bomb hits a target, it explodes in a 15-foot diameter sphere and is destroyed. The bomb can be thrown at an unoccupied space within its range. Each creature other than the target within the blast radius (for a Medium or smaller target, each creature within 5 feet of it) must make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw, taking half the damage rolled on a failed save, or no damage on a successful one. Additionally, as a bonus action, you can empty some of the bomb’s explosive material to permanently remove the blast radius from this bomb, dealing damage only to the bomb’s target.

Catchpole. This weapon is used to immobilize creatures at a distance. When you hit a creature of Large size or smaller with this weapon, you can attempt to grapple the creature instead of dealing damage. When you do so, you use your attack roll for the grapple check, rather than making a Strength (Athletics) check. While grappling a creature with this weapon, you can’t use the weapon on another target.

Double-bladed scimitar. If you attack with a double-bladed scimitar as part of the Attack action on your turn, you can use a bonus action immediately after to make a melee attack with it. This attack deals 1d4 slashing damage on a hit, instead of 2d4.

Harpoon. You can use an action to tie a rope to the end of a harpoon before it is thrown. If a ropetied harpoon hits a target, it becomes embedded in the target, and you can use an action on subsequent turns to hold fast to the rope and make an opposed Strength (Athletics) check against the target to pull it up to 10 feet closer to you. Additionally, when the target moves, you can use your reaction to make an opposed Strength (Athletics) check against it, preventing its movement on a success. If you use your action to do anything else, you lose your grip on the rope. If the target has hands, it can remove the harpoon as an action.

Hook Hand. This is a one-handed weapon, usable only if you are missing a hand or have a special cuff designed to fit over your hand. Any Humanoid that is missing a hand and regularly wears a hook has proficiency with this weapon.

Light Cannon. This weapon deals double damage to objects and structures.

Machete. This weapon deals double damage to Plants and vegetation.

Mountain Cleaver : Lorsque vous ratez une attaque avec cette arme et que vous disposez de sa maitrise d’arme vous l’appliquez un nombre de fois égale à votre nombre d’attaques.

Rocket Launcher. This weapon deals double damage to objects and structures.
