Weapon (longbow), rare

You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

This longbow made by Astral Elves has hinges and can be folded into thirds,  and can be quickly unfolded by a short, swift punching motion. The bow has no string and uses no ammunition. Instead, its weilder strokes two fingers across the bow and makes the motion of drawing an arrow, and the bow generates a projectile of pure force in place of an arrow. The beam of force emits black light, providing bright light in a 5 foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet.

On a hit, the force deals 1d10+DEX force damage to the target, and each creature within 5 feet of the target must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity Saving Throw or take half as much force damage.

The weilder can choose to add more force damage to a shot in exchange for sacrificing some accuracy. The longer the weilder holds the beam of force back in drawn position before firing, the more energy is charged up for the attack, increasing its damage, but making it more difficult to aim steadily. For each second that the shot is delayed, subtract 1 from the attack roll and add 3 to the damage roll.

(For example, if the wielder holds the beam drawn for 6 seconds before firing, then subtract 6 from the attack roll, and on a hit the target takes 1d10+dex+18 force damage, and each creature within 5 feet of the target takes half of that force damage if they fail the Dexterity Saving Throw.)

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