[QUOTE="The Digger, post: 4541154, member: 73964"] I found the bit about Magic weapons in a thread on Enworld about Customer service answers. And it is Captain America! But please don't bother retconning anything. The effect is pretty much the same with either weapon. I only said dagger because I thought the temp HP would be useful. Attack/Damage roll-wise there's not much difference and I will happily go with either. That thread is very useful so I give the url here and the bit about magic weapons after.

Sling and hand crossbow are "Load Free". Normal crossbow is not. p217 says "If a power allows you to hit multiple targets, the additional load time is accounted for in the power." This doesn't appear to apply to light throwing weapons. If shuriken or daggers are used with Blinding Barrage, are they limited by the requirement to use a minor action to draw each item, making Quick Draw a necessity to use these items with this type of power?
