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.
This exotic bow is very similar in size and shape to a shortbow. However attached to it is a long bamboo arrow guide called a tongah, which allow the wielder to draw a short arrow at a full draw length with a full sized bow. A Tong-ah Bow is effectively a composite shortbow and can be used as one without it tongah as a martial weapon, using the profile of the composite shortbow.
An user with the exotic weapon proficiency feat is capable of using it tongah, an overdraw device to fire 'baby arrows' (effectively bolts) and use the profile above.
Attaching or detaching a tongah is a swift action. While it tongah is attached, a Tong-ah Bow cannot fire regular sized arrows, only bolts. A Tong-ah Bow can fire broken arrows as if they were bolt, at a -2 penalty to attack roll.
