Quick question: Martial power errata

A player of mine is currently using 'two-fisted shooter' feat I think its called from martial power. Rules in the book says that after a critical hit with your main-hand weapon you can then shoot off a bolt with the crossbow as a free action.

The player says there is an errata saying that after every strike with your main hand you can then fire off a free action shot with it. I find this a little on the broken side as this makes it better than powers like twin strike. I have looked for this errata online and I don't see it anywhere, is the player mistaken or have I not found it?

if there is errata, it should be in the compendium. (Not should here, its not 100%). I looked it up, and there is no such errata included in the Compendium. And I agree with you, it does indeed seem very cheezy.

The feat text is somewhat ambigous as to what weapon you get an extra attack with when you score a critical hit, but the intention is pretty clear; its the hand crossbow.

This could actually be a decent feat for a daggermaster, oddly. Especially a ranged daggermaster.

Thanks, I did think getting 2 attacks a turn for free was a bit off.
Sorry when I said 'crossbow' I meant 'hand-crossbow' I keep forgetting to distiguish between the two.

Daggermaster drow rogue with hand-crossbow feats + avenger mutliclass, yup I could see that working.

Not in the Compendium and not in the PDF updates on the Wizards site, so I'd say it doesn't exist. If the player insists that it does, tell him to show you
