When distance fails, dinnae ye stay,
Yer prey’s but ae short breath awa,
Wi’ limb, wi’ stock, or arrow — bwil-ya!
The borb marksman taks the day.—Creed of the Caer Moray Militia
General Feat (Prerequisite: Level 4+, Dexterity 13+)
Across Faerûn—from the Caer Moray Militia to the musketeers of Lantan—warriors know the same truth: when foes close the gap, strike fast and strike hard with anything at hand. You’ve mastered turning ranged weapons into brutal tools of survival when foes draw near.
Ability Score Increase. Increase your Dexterity score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
Shoot from the Hip. You ignore the Loading property of any ranged weapon without the Heavy or Two-Handed property, and it gains the Light property. When you roll initiative, you can use your Reaction to make one ranged attack (at disadvantage) or take the Dodge action.
Limb, Stock, and Arrow. You can use a hand crossbow or pistol as a club; a light crossbow or shortbow as a mace; a longbow, musket, or heavy crossbow as a quarterstaff; and an arrow or bolt as a dagger, using Dexterity for these melee attacks and any related Weapon Mastery.
