Weapons

Y
our class grants proficiency in
certain weapons, reflecting both
the class’s focus and the tools you
are most likely to use. Whether you favor a
longsword or a longbow, your weapon and your
ability to wield it effectively can mean the
difference between life and death while
adventuring. The Weapons table shows the most common
weapons used in the fantasy gaming worlds, their price and
weight, the damage they deal when they hit, and any special
properties they possess. Every weapon is classified as either
melee or ranged. A melee weapon is used to attack a target
within 5 feet of you, whereas a ranged weapon is used to
attack a target at a distance.

 Reach. This weapon adds 5 feet to your reach when you
attack with it, as well as when determining your reach for
opportunity attacks with it.
Reactive. You can set a reactive weapon to receive a
charge. As a bonus action, choose a creature you can see that
is at least 20 feet away from you. If that creatures moves
within your weapon’s reach on its next turn, you can make a
melee attack against it with your weapon as a reaction. You
can’t use this property if the creature used the Disengage
action before moving.
Special. A weapon with the special property has unusual
rules governing its use, explained in the weapon’s description
(see “Special Weapons” later in this section).
Thrown. If a weapon has the thrown property, you can
throw the weapon to make a ranged attack. If the weapon is a
melee weapon, you use the same ability modifier for that
attack roll and damage roll that you would use for a melee
attack with the weapon. For example, if you throw a handaxe,
you use your Strength, but if you throw a dagger, you can use
either your Strength or your Dexterity, since the dagger has
the finesse property.
Two-Handed. This weapon requires two hands when you
attack with it, but not when you simply hold it.
Versatile. This weapon can be used with one or two hands.
A damage value in parentheses appears with the property—
the damage when the weapon is used with two hands to
make a melee attack.
Special Weapons
Weapons with special rules are described here.
Blowgun. When you apply a poison to a blowgun, a dose
can cover 10 pieces of ammunition instead of the usual 3.
Dagger. When you make an opportunity attack with a
dagger, you have advantage on the attack roll.
Flail. As a bonus action on your turn, you can prepare
yourself to extend your flail to sweep over targets’ shields and
covers. Until the end of this turn, your attack rolls with the
weapon gain a +2 bonus against any target using a shield or
with half cover.
Lance. You have disadvantage when you use a lance to
attack a target within 5 feet of you. Also, a lance is a heavy
weapon and requires two hands to wield weapon when you
aren’t mounted and if you damage a creature with a lance
after moving at least 30 feet straight toward a target while
mounted, the you deal an extra 1d4 damage.
Net. A Large or smaller creature hit by a net is restrained
until it is freed. A net has no effect on creatures that are
formless, or creatures that are Huge or larger. A creature can
use its action to make a DC 10 Strength check, freeing itself
or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5
slashing damage to the net (AC 10) also frees the creature
without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the net.
When you use an action, bonus action, or reaction to attack
with a net, you can make only one attack regardless of the
number of attacks you can normally make.
