Quick Draw and Crossbows

[captainsacrifice]

Here is what the quick draw feat states:

You can draw a weapon (or an object stored in a belt pouch, bandolier, or similar container, such as a potion) as part of the same action used to attack with the weapon or use the object.

I didn't see a fast reload feat for crossbows, so would this apply to reloading crossbows? So does this mean that reloading as a minor action becomes a free action?

In my reading, that feat doesn't apply to reloading at all. If you really want a rapid reload feat, it doesn't seem like it would be terribly hard to make one up.

No, because this feat enhances the act of taking the weapon out from wherever it is on your person, not figuring out which slots and levers to mess around with while loading the crossbow. At least, that is how I see it.

 

[Gort]

I don't think so. You're not re-drawing the weapon every time you're firing it. I think relating quick-draw to reloading in any form is a bit of a reach.

so drinking a potion is really two minor actions^^ (without that feat) great!
