Default Re: Using a bow above your ST

Now that you mention it, 2 skill for 1 damage seems to be the base exchange rate in DFRPG*, such as All-Out Attack choosing +2 damage or +4 skill. With the added FP cost, maybe it’s not that insane. It’s just the combination of the 2d breakpoint with Weapon Master that makes it seem so crazy, but that actually might be an Weapon Master issue more than a bow issue...

Thanks for the perspective!

*GURPS has even more examples of 2 skill for 1 damage.
