Effect The cord of the bola snakes out as you throw it, allowing the weapon to wrap around a group of enemies. You use the bolas to attempt a ranged Trip against all creatures in a @Template[burst|distance:5] within the weapon's first range increment. Roll a separate Athletics check for each target. Each attempt counts toward your multiple attack penalty, but don't increase your penalty until you have made all the attempts.


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.

Sling: The target must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or be stunned 1.
