Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire – Ranged Weapons

Ranged Weapons are intended for any character wishing to keep their distance from direct combat. They are separated into bows, crossbows, firearms, and implements. Bows and crossbows are the most common, featuring relatively fast reload speed and good damage. Firearms can inflict massive damage, but are inaccurate and take a long time to reload. Implements are the fastest attacking and feature flexible damage types, but do the least amount of damage.
