Ultimate Crossbow (3.5e Equipment)

This is a crossbow made out of a combination of Mithral and Adamantine parts. Due to the excellent tensile nature of Adamantine, the crossbow can store far more kinetic energy than a normal crossbow. Unfortunately, this means that it takes much longer to reload than an ordinary crossbow.

It takes 10 - your Strength modifier Move Actions to reload an Ultimate Crossbow (to a minimum of 1 Move Action). Due to the excellent ratcheting system on this device, the Move Actions do not need to be consecutive.

The Ultimate Crossbow is always masterwork, getting a +1 enhancement bonus to attack rolls.

The incredible force of the shots with this crossbow mean that the bolts it fires ignore 5 points of hardness, but any bolt with 10 or less hardness shatters during impact.
