Bows and Crossbows

Post by Adabelle » Sat Oct 15, 2011 9:34 pm

I wasn't sure where to ask this but since I want to know for an area I am starting on I thought I would ask here.

Do all classes have access to the bows weapon skill?
Do all classes have access to the crossbows weapon skill?

If no to either of these questions:
Do all classes have access to either the bows or crossbows weapon skill?

Thanks,
becca

I think every class has access to either bows -or- crossbows skills, but not both.

All classes have access to the crossbows weapons skill. Only warriors have access to bows.

I have a bard who has bows as trainable, though, maybe it's possible she was grandfathered in?
Your punch viciously hammers a shark's abdomen.
A shark is stunned, but will probably recover.

Ah, nope; you are right, Bards have bows! (I was only checking the base classes.)

Thinking forward, if monks ever come in, canon still gives them crossbows, so I think that's a solid choice.
