Lotsa questions:

1: Ranger PrE's work while Main handing a Throwing Axe and offhanding something? Tempest or Deepwood sniper?

2: Is it common for throwing weapons to be bugged? I literally picked up a +3 Flametouched Iron Returning Throwing Axe today with no level requirement.

3: Enhancement feats like, Weapon Spec, Apply to both thrown and Slash? So would they stack for the purpose of damage? Improved Crit as well?

4: TWF Feat's apply?


The idea stem's from the random tidbit's that Dev's have given us about Mod 7. With the Burst changes, people have been wondering how it's possible to achieve 5x crit, as it's not currently possible. The only legitimate answer is that Half-Orcs get a Axe Crit increase, and DWS on a Throwing Axe = x5. Speculation ofcourse, but it's pretty much all people can think of.

Even without that, a Tempest Dual Wielding throwing axe and a Weighted mace ( which should affect your throwing as well )..

1) The Ranger feats rapidshot, precise shot, improved precise shot do work. Manyshot is bow only. None of the Ranger PrEs work with thrown weapons. :( While Tempest and Arcane Archer do not lend themselves to Thrown weapons, I thought Deepwood Sniper would have been a perfect enhancement for thrower builds. Alas, it is not.

2) Returning throwers used to not have ml: requirements. They were fixed/converted in a patch, but a very few survived with no ml:.

3) There is a separate line of feats for WF:Thrown, WS:Thrown, GrWF:Thrown, GrWS:Thrown, and ImpCrit:Thrown.

4) TWF feats do not apply (can't throw 2 weapons at a time). However, certain weapon enhancements do apply if used in offhand with thrower in mainhand. Seeker in the offhand will provide bonus to the mainhand thrown weapon.
