Prerequisites: Gnome/Halfling/Dwarf Artificer. Artificer level 4 or higher
As a gnome who has honed their skills among the Cloud Giants, you've developed unique adaptations for your crossbow, blending your artificer's ingenuity with the grand scale of your giant companions. This feat includes the following benefits:
-
Giant-Scale Engineering: You've learned to modify and use crossbows of any size, despite your small stature. You can wield crossbows designed for larger creatures without disadvantage, using your artificer's tools to make rapid adjustments for your size.
-
Close-Range Precision: Your training has made you adept at firing in tight quarters. You don't suffer disadvantage when making ranged attacks with a crossbow against enemies within 5 feet of you, demonstrating your skill in close combat scenarios.
-
Cloud-Piercing Bolts: Your experience with the heights and winds of the cloud giants' realm has taught you how to craft special bolts. Once per turn, you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage roll of a bolt, exploiting environmental factors in the lofty realms.
-
Skyward Reflexes: Living among the clouds has honed your reflexes. You gain a +2 bonus to initiative rolls when in high-altitude environments (such as cloud cities or mountaintops).
-
Tinkered Reload Mechanism: You've developed an advanced reloading mechanism. You ignore the loading property of crossbows with which you are proficient. Additionally, as a bonus action, you can deploy a device to reload your crossbow without using your hands.
-
Giant's Aim: Your training with the cloud giants allows you to make precise shots with large crossbows. When you make an attack roll with a crossbow against a creature that is two or more sizes larger than you, you gain advantage on the attack roll.
