Anyone have stats on them?

A player thought about having energy fist weapons so I thought those bows could give us a place to start with the stats on those.

Nightsister Energy Bow - Ranged (Heavy) - Dam 8 - Crit 2 - Range Medium

Encumbrance 4 - HP 2 - ( R ) 2800 credits - Rarity 8 - Pierce 4, Unwieldy 3, Vicious 2

For point of reference, the stats are in Savage Spirits.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "energy fist" weapons, and what that has to do with bows.

I mean like knuckle weapons but with lightsaber technology.

Hmmm we could just think of a way to mount shotos on your wrists...

Something like that existed somewhere, but I wouldn't touch that with a ten-foot pole. I'd rather leave that in the hands of the developers, provided they even bother.

if they wanted to craft something like that, I'd say DDCCC difficulty Mechanics checks

With additional setback dice, because it'd be changing lightsaber technology, which isn't broadly circulated information in the first place

Knuckle weapon with Lightsaber tech using Blast Knuckles and Vibro-knuckles as guidelines:

Skill: Brawl; Dam +3; Crit 2; Engaged; Encumbrance 2; 0 HP; Rarity 10/R; Price: incalculable; Pierce 1; Vicious 1;

Each successful hit causes 1 strain to user (added to any strain suffered due to applicable talents)

It's a brawling weapon so you wouldn't be able to treat it as a Lightsaber or use Parry or Reflect as those Talents require a Melee weapon or a Lightsaber weapon. It's small, so no Hardpoints.

The shield gauntlet in keeping the peace works as a lightsaber when it comes to the reflect talent

1500 credits rarity 8 no hard points dmg Brawn +1, enc 2, Reflection 2, Stun Damage

Can't remember any other stats.

This appears to be the place to ask. Is there an official explanation as to how stuff like the night sister bow (and indeed Ezra's energy slingshot in Rebels) work in as far as 'drawing'. Neither Ezra or night sisters appear to wear any kind of hand protection, how come Ezra doesn't stun himself with each shot (or night sisters lose fingers!)?

I ask because one of my players of Dathomirian descent has got her hands on a night sister bow and I was trying to explain how the weapon is drawn before release (I said that it used a sensor to track hand movement where the bow is drawn, which partly down to it having Unwieldy 3 - you got to have quick/precise hands to use the weapon properly without hurting yourself). Savage Spirits state that the bow has a hand guard, but this seems to protect the hand that holds the bow, not the hand that draws the 'energy string'.

My player isn't desperate for an explanation, but I would like to hear what other people thought, there's no real explanation on Wookiepedia...

For the bow, the book describes (and you can see in the screenshot) a guard which is what the archer uses to draw.

Thanks Phrophyt and Nytwyng!

Totally fumbled my Perception check and missed the 'string grip' (although what happens to the grip when the bow is not powered, I'm not sure... Best not to think too hard on that, it's Star Wars )
