With extensive accuracy training, few can match the marksman’s skill with ranged weapons. Some are known to hit anything, even those hiding behind cover, by ricocheting their shots. Others take out two targets with a single shot. No one would fault you for thinking they use magic from watching a marksman in action, but it’s all skill.

Marksman Talents

Aimed Shot When you attack with a two-handed ranged weapon, you can use a triggered action to make the attack roll with 1 boon and deal +1d6 damage.

Double Shot When you make an attack with a ranged weapon that does not have the reload property, or with a firearm that has multiple barrels, you can use an action to fire two projectiles. Make an attack roll with 1 bane and add the base weapon damage twice.

Gunsmith You add gunsmith to your list of professions and if your weapon misfires, clearing the barrel only takes 1 round.

Heroic Bloodshed When you attack a single target with two ranged weapons, you make the attack roll with 1 boon and deal +1d6 extra damage.

Lightning Reload You can reload a weapon with the reload property with a triggered action instead of an action.

Penetrating Projectiles If your attack roll with a ranged weapon is 20+ and beats the target number by 5, your projectile goes clean through the target and ricochets into a random creature within short range, dealing half damage. That creature can make an Agility challenge roll to avoid the projectile.

Trick Shot You can use the environment to ricochet your bullet to hit targets behind cover, or even around corners. When you attack with a ranged weapon, you can make the attack roll with 1 bane to ignore cover or hit someone who’s not in your line of sight, as long as you know approximately where they are.
