Shoot
Shoot is the skill of using ranged weaponry, whether in combat or while targeting objects. It covers everything from precise sniping with bows to heavy fire with firearms, reflecting your expertise in striking from a distance.
The Shoot skill requires a specialization, meaning it must be chosen with a specific focus such as Shoot (Bows), Shoot (Crossbows), or Shoot (Firearms). This specialization reflects your character’s mastery in that particular combat style. If you attempt to use a ranged weapon outside of your specialization, your rolls for any skill checks receive a -2 penalty.
