Requirements

  • Ranged Weapons (Magitech) 3
  • Rank 1-5, 1 CC point per Rank or 3 GXP x Rank

Effects

Rank 1 Fast Reload Reload time is reduced to a Move Action.
Rank 2 Offhand Action While wielding a Magitech Pistol in one hand you have been trained to use your other hand to either:
  • Increase your reload speed to a Fast Action.
  • Use a full round action to attack a second target within range with a second weapon. These attacks each suffer a -2 penalty.
  • Use a full round action to attack a single target with both weapons. Your attack is rolled against the opponent’s defense and benefits from Armor Penetration or Ignore Dodge effects on both weapons. The offhand weapon grants bonus dice to the attack equal to [the base offhand weapon bonus] + (([Offhand Weapon Enhancement Bonus] + [Fighting Style Rank OR Offhand Weapon Skill (whichever is LOWER)]) / 2).
Rank 3 Point Blank Shot Within one range increment you ignore the standard -2 penalty for shooting at a target engaged in melee and gain 9-again.
Rank 4 Dart Your character may move before and after a ranged attack. When using Offhand Action or Rapid Fire you may move a number of yards equal to your Fighting Style Rank between attacks. (e.g. Fire a shot with pistol at a target, then Dart Rank yards to the target for a melee attack with your offhand weapon.) The total distance moved in a turn must not exceed your maximum Speed.
Rank 5 Rapid Fire As a Full Round Action you may attack a number of targets with Main Hand and Offhand up to a maximum of Rank -1. The number of shots from Magitech Weapons may not exceed the available charges, and any melee weapons may only attack once.

E.g. Mainhand Magitech Pistol with two available charges and Offhand Rapier could shoot two ranged targets and pierce an adjacent melee target as a Full Round Action.
