Special training turns a grapefruit-sized sphere of crude iron into a deadly projectile. Even with the exotic weapon proficiency (orc shotput) feat, a wielder must be medium-size or larger to use the weapon effectively (or take a -2 size and -2 handiness penalty). The orc shotput is a rather small example of this breed of weapon, and is hurled with great force, with an eye to the occasional massive strike, rather than more reliable damage. As a result, it becomes wildly inaccurate quickly. The orc shotput may also be used in melee, albeit at a -2 penalty on attack rolls. As such, the wielder threatens adjacent squares, may make opportunity attacks, and provide flanks. The orc shotput belongs to the "Thrown" weapons group. |
