a glowbark heavy crossbow

4x base with fireleaf and glowbark bolts ranging from +1 up to +30.
Self ammo 3 sec base firing with no cocking needed
Random damage weighting
+30 AS bonus when kneeling
Heavy crossbow
Permablessed

Scripts:

-Tap-
You scrutinize the tiller of your crossbow, occasionally running your thumb along the crossbow's surface, looking for flaws.

-Pull-
You raise your crossbow and sight down its length. After satisfying yourself that the sightings are correct you slowly lower your crossbow.

-Push-
Carefully planting your foot firmly on the ground, you brace the prod of your crossbow against it securely. With the ease of long practice you slip the bowstring from one nock, twist it several times to tighten, and slide the knot's loop back into position.

-Rub-
You polish your glowbark crossbow with your hand, trying to remove all the imperfections.

-Point- Random person in the room
You carefully sight down your glowbark crossbow and along the shaft at Chazym.

-Pluck-
You give your crossbow string a good pluck, testing it for proper tension.
The string makes a dull *thud* as you release it.

Example:

You cock your glowbark heavy crossbow and a straight glowbark bolt slides into place.
You fire a straight glowbark bolt at a triton radical!
AS: +649 vs DS: +292 with AvD: +25 + d100 roll: +21 = +403
... and hit for 148 points of damage!
Shot destroys eye and the brain behind it!
The triton radical collapses, gurgling once with a wrathful look on his face before expiring.
A white glow rushes away from a triton radical.
The dull golden nimbus fades from around a triton radical.
The brilliant aura fades away from a triton radical.
The very powerful look leaves a triton radical.
The white light leaves a triton radical.
The bolt breaks into tiny fragments.
Roundtime: 4 sec.
Roundtime changed to 1 second.

You cock your glowbark heavy crossbow and a straight fireleaf bolt slides into place.
You fire a straight fireleaf bolt at a triton executioner!
AS: +637 vs DS: +395 with AvD: +33 + d100 roll: +9 = +284
... and hit for 101 points of damage!
Strike to the eye penetrates skull, ocular fluid sprays widely!
The triton executioner collapses, gurgling once with a wrathful look on his face before expiring.
The bolt breaks into tiny fragments.
Roundtime: 4 sec.
Roundtime changed to 1 second.

I think he means it automatically cocks and fires..

He has a four second time because he was aiming and it was reduced to one second by his wizard slave.

Those two attacks show 5 and 1 point of damage weighting (irrespectively and with no idea how rounding plays in).

Correct.. 3 sec base firing no matter what strength or encumberance.. 4 seconds aimed.. 5 seconds aimed and sniping

that's true with all crossbows, is it not? cocking time is the only thing that changes, or am I just delirious right now?

It cocks, loads, and fires in one motion, three seconds base.

And cocking is variable depending on strength/encumberence. I believe the base cocking time of a heavy crossbow may even be higher than 3 to begin with?

Normal crossbows "Fire" in 2 seconds. But then you have to take into account the RT incurred when Cocking one..Which can be 3-10 seconds etc based upon STR bonuses along with crossbow base.

This is basically a Self-Ammo, Permablessed Longbow in turns of RT...With the exception of Heavy Crossbow DF's and the +30 Bonus while kneeling with Crossbows.

I'm curious as to what the asking price of it is to begin with as well. Granted this is Tsin we're talking about ;)

Tsin told me he's rejected offers of 125m. "So more than that."
