1. See Damage Increases by Size to calculate the damage for a weapon larger than Medium or smaller than Small.
2. Weight figures are for Medium weapons. A Small weapon weighs half as much, and a Large weapon weighs twice as much.
3. When two types are given, the weapon is both types if the entry specifies "and", either type (player's choice at time of attack) if the entry specifies "or", or each end of the double weapon is a different type if the entry specifies "/".
4. The hp value given is for Medium armor, weapons, and shields. Divide by 2 for each size category of the item smaller than Medium, or multiply it by 2 for each size category larger than Medium.
A gigas Blunderbuss is a huge oversized blunderbuss, it require a 2 round action to reload but deal a fantastic amount of damage (at a pathetic range). When a gigas blunderbuss fire it target all creatures within a 20 feet cone-shaped burst, using the same attack roll and damage roll against each creature separately. If the range of the gigas blunderbuss increase, instead apply half the increase to the cone (rounded to the nearest 5', so a 10' increase in range increase the cone by 5'). You cannot deliver precision damage with a gigas blunderbuss.
You can shoot, but not load, a gigas blunderbuss with one hand at a –8 penalty on attack rolls. You can shoot a gigas blunderbuss with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls as if attacking with two one-handed weapons. This penalty is cumulative with the penalty for one-handed firing.
Whenever a non-proficient creature fire a gigas blunderbuss it is knocked ten feet in the opposite direction it fire, is automatically made prone and take 2d6 falling damage.
The gigas blunderbuss requires Str 19 to wield in the first place, with a -2 penalty on attack rolls. At Str 21, the penalty to attack rolls vanishes. Those proficient with the gigas blunderbuss can make the following special attacks:
Concentrated Shot: You may fire the gigas blunderbuss as line instead of a cone, the line is twice the length of the cone.
Quick Reload: You may reload the weapon as a full-round action. If it would be reduced in any way it cannot be reduced below a move action.
Harnessed Knockback: Whenever you fire the gigas blunderbuss you may move 10 feet in the opposite direction you fired, this movement provoke attack of opportunity as normal.
