Weapon Properties

Many weapons have special properties related to their use, as shown in the Weapons table.

Double. This weapon is a double weapon. You can fight with it as if fighting with two weapons. All normal penalties and features pertaining to two weapon fighting apply to this.

Special Weapons

Weapons with special rules are described here.

Bolas. If the creature hit by this weapon is large or smaller, and not formless, its walking speed is reduced by ten feet. The target can take an action to remove the bolas. Any creature can also break the bolas by dealing 5 slashing damage (AC 10).

Chain, spiked. This weapon takes on the same properties as the net weapon. The Strength DC to escape is 15. The damage necessary to break the spiked chain is 15 bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (AC 10).

Crossbow, repeating. The repeating crossbow (whether heavy or light) holds 5 crossbow bolts. As long as it holds bolts, you can reload it by pulling the reloading lever, this requires neither an action nor bonus action. Loading a new case of 5 bolts is an action that provokes attacks of opportunity.

You can fire a repeating crossbow with one hand or fire a repeating crossbow in each hand in the same manner as you would a normal crossbow of the same size. However, you must fire the weapon with two hands in order to use the reloading lever, and you must use two hands to load a new case of bolts.

Flail, dire. While wielding this, others who make attempts to disarm you are at advantage.

Spiked armor. This cannot be used with the attack action. The damage is applied when another creature successfuly grapples you or when you successfully grapple another creature. For grappling, damage is applied at the beginning of each of the opposing creature's turns until it is able to escape.
