What does a masterwork bandoleer do?

[Nareau]

I'm guessing it lets me draw a weapon as a free action. Am I right?

It looks really speccy.

LOL!
Nope, can you imagine a 5gp item as powerful as a feat, Never.

FRCS page 95
Bandoleer: "...Leather belt has loops or pouches for carrying small items (up to dagger size)..." "...holds eight items."
FRCS page 96
Bandoleer, Masterwork: "...holds twelve items."

Interesting how it has to be MW just to hold 4 more items.

Yep.
I didn't make it, don't looks at me.

Anyway, I don't think it's that big a deal.
A reg bando is 5 Sp, a mw bando is 5 Gp, they both weigh 1/2lb.
It was probably just easier to call it mw instead of "the hold more Bandoleer" or ""the Bandoleer that can hold more items then the other Bandoleer" or worse yet "the Bandoleer that can hold more stuff then the normal regular kind of Bandoleer that costs 5 silver".

You're defensive...only someone guilty would be that defensive....

Maybe, it also gives +1 to hit and has it's armor check penalty reduced by one. Or you get +2 on all skill checks with it.

It's just odd they called it MW is all.

I prefer to refer to it as, “the bandoleer that weighs the same amount as the one that costs forty five silver pieces less but holds 4 more small dagger sized items.”
It just makes more sense that way.

BTW Off the record I think it's kinda lame, the item that is, not the name.

I agree. If one of my players says they're attacking with it, I'll give them +1 on the attack roll. If they wear it as armor, I'll laugh at them - and give them a -1 check penalty.

So is it an exotic weapon?
