View Full Version : Rapid shot + dead shot

When making a full-attack action with a ranged weapon, you can fire one additional time this round. All of your attack rolls take a –2 penalty when using Rapid Shot.

So it's pretty clear that it at least works for shooting guns.


At 7th level, as a full-round action, the gunslinger can take careful aim and pool all of her attack potential into a single, deadly shot. When she does this, she shoots the firearm at a single target, but makes as many attack rolls as she can, based on her base attack bonus. She makes the attack rolls in order from highest bonus to lowest, as if she were making a full attack.

So a few questions, does rapid shot interact with dead shot? Does haste, weapon of speed, etc. interact? Does Wild fighting (2nd level ability from wild rager barbarian archetype) interact?

It's pretty clear that you only use attacks gained from a high BAB.

Well if you are making a full attack, i can see no reason why not rapid shot and haste will stack for all extra attacks.

You're not making a full attack. You're taking a full-round action, which is not even remotely the same thing.

It's a full round action that... is a full attack against a single target? Why not just full attack? What does Dead Shot give you that wouldn't make just full attacking a better option anyway?

Every attack that hits after the first increase the base damage die by one. IE: Shoot three shots all hit: 1d6->2d6->3d6

Edit: Also all rolls in this deed need to misfire for you to count as a misfire.

the full round actions is made as if it was a full attack so they should be included.

She makes as many as she can, based on her base attack bonus. Limited to 4 attack tops RAW.

Yeah, by RAW, I think this is the correct interpretation. "Based on her base attack bonus" does not include any other attacks she might have. "As if she were making a full attack" refers only to the order the attacks must be taken in.
