Thread: 5x mechanical heavy crossbow temp heavy sighting

  1. Default 5x mechanical heavy crossbow temp heavy sighting

    closing out some of my characters and selling off some of the nicer things that I hope someone can enjoy. This is a nifty lil bow for snipers. As weak or encumbered as you are it only requires 3 seconds to cock it. Also it will never knock you out of hiding while doing so.

    traded


    I copied this from a previous sale of it since I'm too lazy to get all the info about it myself.
    Descrption:

    A gnomish-crafted crossbow inset with various sprockets and gears in your right hand

    This is a 5x crossbow with mechanical crank. The cock time is three seconds no matter what - race, strength, encumbrance, etc... Allows you to stay hidden while cocking and loading as well. Additionally - has temporary HCW (I believe tier 1) from the WoE

    >look at cross
    You glance at a gnomish-crafted crossbow inset with various sprockets and gears. The gnomish-crafted crossbow has a small windlass attached to it. It seems to be in fine working order, the cording recently replaced and the crank and winch well oiled.


    Couple zests -

    >tap cross
    You scrutinize the tiller of your crossbow, occasionally running your thumb along the crossbow's surface, looking for flaws.
    >push cross
    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.
    >pull cross
    You raise your crossbow and sight down its length. After satisfying yourself that the sightings are correct you slowly lower your crossbow.
    >point cross
    You carefully sight down your gnomish-crafted crossbow and along the shaft.
    >toss cross
    You toss your crossbow a few inches in the air, catching it adroitly as you swing it around and sight down its length.


    From the bard:
    .
    As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the gnomish-crafted crossbow in your hand, and you learn something about it...

    The first thing that strikes you about the crossbow is the weight, which is about 10 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 750,000 silvers.

    As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the gnomish-crafted crossbow in your hand, and you learn something about it...

    You sense a faint aura of magic around the gnomish-crafted crossbow. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the crossbow is as some type of weapon. It also appears to have a temporary modification of some kind.

    As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the gnomish-crafted crossbow in your hand...

    It has a bonus of +25 from a normal crossbow, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in ranged weapons to use effectively. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.
    You think that you could probably find out something more about the crossbow if you tried.

    As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the gnomish-crafted crossbow in your hand...

    The harmonics generated tell you that the crossbow assists its bearer with aiming attacks at range.

    The crossbow resonates with your voice, revealing some details of its temporary enhancement:
    The crossbow's enhancement will degrade under circumstances you cannot decipher.
    It should be able to withstand an incredible amount of uses before its enhancement has completely degraded away.
    When its enhancement has degraded away, the item will lose its special ability.
