Hail of arrows

From NWNWiki

Type of feat: class
Prerequisite: arcane archer 8

Specifics: In lieu of a regular attack, once per day an arcane archer can fire an arrow at each and every target within range, to a maximum of one target for every arcane archer level he has.

Use: selected

[edit] Notes

• Added in the expansion packs.
• Targets are chosen based on distance from the archer, with closer targets given preference.
• The range of this feat is the current area, and there are no allowances made for visibility. Using this feat can cause many previously unseen creatures to come running.
• Each arrow fired makes a ranged touch attack to see if it hits.
• The piercing damage inflicted by a successful hit is the sum of weapon base damage (d6 for a shortbow or d8 for a longbow), strength modifier, weapon specialization (if applicable), and epic weapon specialization (if applicable).
  • This damage is tripled in the case of a critical hit.
  • This damage is intended to penetrate damage reduction according to the arcane archer's enchant arrow bonus, but a bug in the game (not the script) prevents this.
• A successful hit also deals magical damage equal to the arcane archer's enchant arrow bonus.

[edit] Previous versions

• Prior to version 1.69, this feat did not account for epic weapon specialization.
