Ranged Weapons

Why fight up close when you can win from afar? Arrows, bullets, projectiles—precision and distance are your best allies.

Skill Perks

(25%) Weapon Ability: Butt Strike: You will attack with the butt of your weapon, swinging until you land a hit and using no ammo.

(50%) Weapon Ability: Aim: Provides a 20% Hit Chance Increase on your next attack. Intervening mobiles will not be hit.

(75%) Weapon Ability: Moving Shot: Non-Rifles only. This special move allows firing while on the move. This shot is less accurate than normal.

(75%) Weapon Ability: Long Shot: Rifles Only. Take a shot at a distance up to 2x the base range of your weapon, with a hit chance decrease of 5% per extra tile.

(100%) Ability: Quick Reload: Your next (or active) reload will be performed 33% faster. For single shot weapons (and non-firearms), your next shot will happen 33% sooner.

Tips

• Slings are easily made with Survival or Tailoring and do not require ammo, making it a great starting ranged weapon.
• There is no penalty for being in melee with ranged.
