[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 2825978, member: 2011"] When combined with Flanking and Sneak Attacks, ensuring that you hit is powerful. Rogues often use a single attack in a round because Sneak Attack damage is only usable once per round. This allows them to nearly ensure a hit with it as well. I agree that crossbows need improvement. But, a feat is not the way to do it. The way to do it is to give them a bonus to hit due to their stability and allow them to be Mighty just like other bows. It is a 5 foot step in the feat. So, how about if he moved before this in the current round? Spells are seriously crippled as Immediate Actions. These feats are not. I said this one was not potent. Just stupid. Probably not. Again, stupid, not potent. I compared it to Skill Focus where it totally kicks butt. I really don't see how you could seriously argue against this. Like Shellman pointed out, that may not be how it works. Except that the smaller bonus is limited to a single weapon as opposed to all weapons as well. Two advantages versus one is not necessarily good design. But, this is not an overwhelmingly unbalanced feat, just borderline. [/QUOTE]
