Firearms are a new and volatile technology, and as such bring their own unique set of weapon properties. Firearms need proficiency training.Firearms are ranged weapons. Add your Dexterity bonus when rolling for an attack.

Reload. The weapon can be fired a number of times equal to its Reload score before you must spend 1 attack or 1 action to reload. You must have one free hand to reload a firearm.

Misfire. Whenever you make an attack roll with a firearm, and the dice roll is 1, the weapon misfires. And the wielder takes 1d10 force damage. The weapon cannot be used again until you spend an action to try and repair it. To repair your firearm, you must make a successful Tinker’s Tools check (DC equal to 10). If your check fails, the weapon is broken and must be mended out of combat at a quarter of the cost of the firearm.

Creatures who use a firearm without being proficient increase the weapon’s misfire score by 1.

Explosive. Upon a hit, everything within 5 ft of the target must take 1d10 force damage. If the weapon misses, the ammunition bounces away harmlessly before doing so.

Ammunition

All firearms require ammunition to make an attack, and due to their rare nature, ammunition may be near impossible to find or purchase. However, if materials are gathered, you can craft ammunition yourself using your Tinker’s Tools at half the cost. Each firearm uses its own unique ammunition and is generally sold or crafted in batches listed below next to the price. Thunderstone is the main component for the ammunition.

Proficiency with a Pistol allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
