Maradi's Immersive Firearms

About this mod

Features

• Missfire — on a natural 1 attack roll the firearm misfires, expending the ammunition and jamming until the start of the next turn.
• Reloading — each firearm type has its own ammo capacity, which increases with improvements; reloading can be performed as a bonus action.

Blunderbuss Special Property

• Scattershot — short‑range shots deal additional spread damage to enemies directly in front of the target.
