D&d Heavy Crossbow Dmg

Posted on by

Dec 26, 2010  D&D has long given the crossbow the short shaft (Pun intended). Also, a heavy crossbow does an avg of longbow +1 dmg. Not too shabby. Community / Forums / Pathfinder / Pathfinder First Edition / Rules Questions / Crossbows and damage. All Messageboards. Oct 22, 2015  I was throwing some ideas at the wall for Destiny using 5e D&D. After some thinking, I realized that you can map the existing martial ranged weapons to firearms like this: Pistol: Use shortbow stats. SMG: Use hand crossbow stats. Assault Rifle: Use heavy crossbow. Sign in - Google Accounts - Google Classroom.
