So I asked again. This time I got Joe, who in my (humble) opinion, is the best CSR I've seen. Joe says:So that's it. Mundane daggers and shuriken don't work for Blinding Barrage etc. unless you have Quick Draw or a magic weapon. I believe this is a minor omission in the rules that leads to a rules-lawyer interpretation: to me the intention is clear from the wording on PHB:217: "some powers let you hurl several of them at once or in rapid succession". That says to me that you should be able to use daggers/shuriken just as effectively as a crossbow/sling.I hope to see errata on this, but until then, either go with RAW/CSR answers, or houserule it.</blockquote>
