(Requires Attunement) This straight sword's blade is shattered into 24 sharp pieces that orbit around where the sword's blade would have been. Serving as a cross-guard on its hilt is two Basilisk Scales, which can be removed with smith's tools (DC12), however doing so will destroy the weapon. While attuned to this +2 shortsword, a creature can use it to attack at range as if attacking with a ranged weapon. Its range is 15/30 when used in this way. In addition, when the wielder takes the dodge action, the shards scatter about the wielder like scale mail, increasing their AC by 2 and enhancing their mobility. When you are subjected to an Effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail. While gaining these benefits, the wielder cannot make an opportunity attack with this weapon.
Proficiency with a Shortsword allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
