![]() There are some examples in the Imperial Armoury in Vienna, for example. Drawing the ammunition from a quiver, case, or other container is part of the attack. Each time you attack with the weapon, you expend one piece of ammunition. Most handgun designs that can easily be built into a shield is more complicated than a crossbow but the compactness of a gun makes it easier to build into a shield. Ammunition: You can use a weapon that has the ammunition property to make a ranged attack only if you have ammunition to fire from the weapon. Going this route, instead of a crossbow, go with a gunpowder weapon (fewer moving parts, so likely easier to work out a compatible design) and build it into the shield. ![]() However, most players are going to want to at least get the infusions they want for themselves first, Repeating Shot can only be used to infuse a single ranged weapon per Artificer, and most artificers are ranged attackers that will want to use the infusion for themselves. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Using that infusion to help a party member would be a great use of an infusion. The point of everything is to help the party. It's a team game after all! You do not have to be an Artificer yourself, but good luck convincing a party member to commit one of their Infusions for your use.īut isn't that the point of the Artificer infusions? To help the other party members? The only way to accomplish this is via Artificer's Repeating Shot on a Crossbow, Hand.

Still, does it make sense (either in the. On my phone so I can’t link/quote effectively, but everything you need is in the equipment section of PHB, and the the Crossbow Expert feat if you don’t believe me that it’s irrelevent. By the rules, you can carry things in your shield hand when wearing a light shield, but you cant use weapons. The “loading” property of crossbows is irrelevent to this, which is why Crossbow Expert is no help. ![]() The issue is (1) a bow and crossbows “ammunition” property, and (2) A shield occupies one hand and makes it not free, whether you’re “wearing”/“wielding” it actively ( 2 AC) or just holding it like an object. It does what the rules say it does, no need to cite pictures of reenactment buffs. Ugh, another thread bogged down by what a shield would “really” do.
