Item: Spiritsight Crossbow
This +1 striking ghost touch crossbow has an array of crystalline lenses and silver fittings along the stock and feels strangely light.
Activate—Ethereal Vision 1 (concentrate)
Frequency once per minute
Effect You aim through the crossbow's crystalline lenses, gaining imprecise vision onto the Ethereal Plane with a range of 60 feet in addition to your normal senses until the end of your turn. You can sense through objects in the Universe this way, and the sense is precise for detecting creatures. Because this sense detects spiritual energy, a creature that's immune to spirit can't be detected in this way.
Activate—Ethereal Shot 1
Requirements Ethereal Vision is active
Effect You Strike with the spiritsight crossbow. This shot travels through the Ethereal Plane, allowing it to pass through and ignore cover from physical objects within the range of your Ethereal Vision.
Critical Specialisation Effects
Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.
Crossbow: The target takes 1d8 persistent bleed damage. You gain an item bonus to this bleed damage equal to the weapon's item bonus to attack rolls.
