TW Firebolt Pistol

Unread post by Athos »

What WP skill would you need for a TW Firebolt Pistol? My guess would be Energy Pistol since the magic bolt it shoots is closest to an energy weapon, does this seem reasonable?

actually, it's a modified SDC pistol so you use that. it might fire fireballs, but AIMING it is exsactly the same.

I agree that aiming is aiming, but there is no WP: Flintlock, so what is the next closest thing?

what I do is have it so hiving WP pistol will let you get the bonus to strike for energy as well, and vice versa. same with rifles.

the thing is, while you get strike bonus, WP also involves mantince of the guns.

so if you have WP semiautomatic pistol you have the bonus to strike when you use your laser pistol, but you can't maintian it when it breaks down.

You would only use W.P. Flintlock if it were a flintlock pistol converted to TW. It isn't. It's a TW Energy Pistol that just looks all old and fancy.
