![]() Given this and the better range, I think Heavy Crossbow+HM will generally be more effective than Hand Crossbow+HM as a basic combat tactic. When you consider needing to recast due to concentration and moving it because an enemy dies or flees you will not pull much if any ahead of heavy crossbow guy and that is using all of your bonus actions while Heavy guy has some bonus actions for other things. HM + Hand Crossbowx2 =21 damage (73 total) HM+Heavy Crossbowx2 = 25 damage (75 total) So after 2 turns the hand crossbow man is ahead and he will get further ahead every round he does not have to move the Hunters Mark, however the Hunters Mark will rarely stay on one enemy for 3 rounds and if he has to move it on round 3 he is behind again: ![]() As for 3 hand crossbow attacks with hunters mark vs 2 heavy crossbow with hunters mark It depends on how many hit points the foes have and how long the combat is because hunters mark requires a bonus action to cast and a bonus action to move. The artificer levels are irrelevant because repeating shot does not do anything. As long as it holds bolts, you can reload it by pulling the reloading lever (a free action ). With literally 1 more attack chances and literally 1d6+1d6 The repeating heavy crossbow holds 5 crossbow bolts. 2 artificer and 5 rangers would literally outrun your 2 attacks with heavy crossbows. Any other supplied values are the authors best determination. Sorry but with hunters mark the hand crossbows 3 attacks at level 7. The SRD only gives a means to determine costs and weights of weapons for Large and Small versions based on the Medium weapons. Dual wielding them would mean you could only make 2 attacks (unless you dropped one). So you make all 3 attacks with the SAME hand crossbow. Now you have used the attack action and attacked with a one handed weapon (the crossbow you attacked with) so you can use a bonus action to attack with a hand crossbow you are holding (the same one you just attacked with). Start off holding one hand crossbow with the other hand empty.Īction: Attack with hand crossbow, Attack again with hand crossbow (ignoring loading)
