Can we have a discussion on what feats can improve a heavy repeating crossbow? Also what are the differences between light and heavy repeating crossbows...:confused:

This is the wrong forum. You want this one (http://boards1.wizards.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=520) instead.

A heavy repeating crossbow does more damage and has more range than a light repeating crossbow.

And rapid reload doesn't technically affect the reload time for a repeating crossbow, but I would personally allow it to change the reload time from a full-round action to a move action as with a heavy crossbow.

you could conceivably reload a repeater as a move action but only if u have a spare "magazine" <-- hehe pun ready to load.

i think the reason rapid reload says no to them is because of no matter how fast u can put one bolt back in string u cant do it 5 times in the same amount of time. its full round action because of that.

but if i had a repeater crossbow using rambo style pc with a belt of loaded clips id say ya for move equiv. tell him to save the feat it just doesnt make sense for a repeater :weep:
