Skiprocks are like small puck-shaped rocks which can be thrown, used in a sling or fired from a stonebow. If used by someone with the Exotic Weapon Proficiency for skiprocks, they gain use of the ricochet ability (see below), which can be used with any delivery method. Although skiprocks can be used as ammunition, they are thrown weapons for purposes of enchantment, drawing them for use, or for what happens to them after they are fired. Because of this, if a skiprock is enchanted to at least +1, it gains the Lesser Returning weapon quality (and gains Greater Returning if enchanted to at least +2) and retains that quality even if fired from a projectile weapon with greater than a +1 enhancement. This means that a single skiprock can be used as ammunition multiple times per round if desired, as long as the returning quality is able to function. When used as a thrown weapon, a skiprock is not usable in melee combat and so does not threaten, allow flanks, and cannot be used for attacks of opportunity. Skiprocks belong to the "Thrown" weapons group.
