[QUOTE="argo, post: 3477693, member: 5752"] Nonsense. I'm going to claim expert witness status based on old boy scout experience. Assuming you have a prepared replacement string handy, with loops already tied in the ends and so forth (and it is [i]very[/i] reasonable to assume any dedicated archer would have a few spares in his equipment) then re-stringing a bow ought to take between a few seconds and maybe half a minute tops. And since DnD generally assumes that characters are hyper-competent in [i]everything[/i] they do then we ought to place things on the low end of the spectrum. A full-round action sounds just fine to me. Though it should definetly provoke an AoO. Bending a bow between your knees while you flex in both hands at the same time would leave you prety open to attack. Here I've got no experience so I won't voice an opinion on how long it should take. But I imagine its something you ought to be able to do without special tools. Later. [/QUOTE]
