FluffThis heavy crossbow has a winch mounted below the stock.
Description
BenefitUp to 50 feet of silk rope can be wound onto the winch as a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity. The wound rope can be attached to a Grappling Bolt as part of a loading action. After firing such a bolt, the wielder can use the winch to retract the rope or pull herself along the rope if the bolt is secure.

If the grappling bolt has latched on to a creature, the winch provides a +2 bonus on grapple combat maneuver checks to pull the target toward you.

If the grappling bolt has latched on to a scalable structure, the winch provides a +2 bonus on Climb checks.

The crossbow may also fire ordinary crossbow bolts.

NoteLoading a heavy crossbow is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity.

You draw a heavy crossbow back by turning a small winch. Normally, operating a heavy crossbow requires two hands. However, you can shoot, but not load, a heavy crossbow with one hand at a –4 penalty on attack rolls. You can shoot a heavy crossbow with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls as if attacking with two one-handed weapons. This penalty is cumulative with the penalty for one-handed firing.
