Gunblades are a strange and versatile weapon, capable of great damage and using especially infused bullets to produce a variety of effects.

The Gunbreaker is master of this weapon, and uses it to its fullest capabilities creating astonishing effects on the battlefield.

Gunblade

Starting at 3rd level, you are able to modify any melee weapon dealing slashing damage and that does not have the Light quality, and make it a Gunbalde.
To do so, you have to spend 30GP in raw materials and work on the weapon for at least 1 hour during a Long rest. The weapon must be a weapon you are proficient into, and you are considered proficient in the use of the resulting Gunblade.

A Gunblade is special type of weapon, that combines an especially treated edge with a revolver cylinder and trigger mechanism, and uses especially infused cartridges in order to create special effects in combat.

You are also to create the infused cartridges your Gunblade uses to produce its special effects.
During a short or long rest, you can spend a total of 10GP worth of raw materials and create 2d6 + your Wisdom modifier cartridges. You cannot perform any other action during this a short rest when creating the cartridges, and when doing so during a long rest, you can only eat and sleep for the rest of it.
Cartridges last 24 hours before losing their infusion, making them unusable.

A Gunblade's cylinder can contain up to 6 infused cartridges. Reloading the cartridges of your Gunblade is an Action; at level 15, Reloading becomes a Bonus Action.
