Giantbreaker
Giantbreaker
is
a rare special
variant of the Heavy Crossbows family of weapons.
It is a martial ranged weapon
that's wielded with both hands. It needs ammunition to shoot at enemies.* It's a heavy weapon, which makes it difficult for small creatures to use effectively.* It needs to be loaded before firing, which means it cannot be used for multiple attacks with a single action.*
∗ This limitation is not implemented in Early Access.
Legends say the Giantbreaker earned its name when an elven ranger singlehandedly defeated a score of hill giants. While the ranger's name is long forgotten, Giantbreaker's lives on.
Where to Find
This weapon can be bought from Brem in the Zhentarim Hideout after completing Find the Missing Shipment.
