Ranged Weapons’ Ranges: #

By default, all ranged weapons had a 30 meter firing range. This did not make much sense, for example a long bow had the same range as a throwing axe or sling.

The maximum ranges for each ranged weapon type are: #

1. Darts, Throwing Axes, Shurikens: 15 meters
2. Short Bow: 20 meters
3. Long Bow: 25 meters
4. Light Crossbow: 25 meters
5. Heavy Crossbow: 30 meters
6. Sling: 17.5 meters

Weapon Swap in Combat #

Whenever you switch weapons in combat, you receive an irremovable 100% miss chance for the next 2 rounds. This allows you to switch weapons in combat whenever necessary, but knowing you will incur this temporary debuff if you do. This custom miss chance is necessary to counter an issue in the underlying NWN base game hard-coded code.
