"Blunderbuss reloading"
Hi, I have my Ranger equipped with a Blunderbuss and he already has 2 attacks with it. And after every 2nd attack he reloads the Blunderbuss. Does this mean that even if I get an extra swing or another extra attack, that it won't matter since my Ranger will have to reload? If so, then I might as well not put any points on level up into Speed as it won't make any difference. Thanks in advance for your help.

You would see the same thign with a musket, it is just a confirmation that you still have ammo ... it is not taking up a "time slice" of your initiative. (Or maybe it is, but that is figured into its intiative).

So just to be sure, you've seen muskets fire more than one time in a single round of combat? Because muskets reload after every shot and if muskets can fire more than a single time, then that must mean that blunder busses can fire more than twice.

... I don't tend to use them. But since you need proof (jeez! ) ... I loaded up a game, ran to the local Umpani gun shop, gave my fighter a musket, antagonized some Umpani, though on some Haste cologne (#5, my favorite) .... and ...

pow, reload, pow, reload ... in one round ... so, yes, it works the way I thought.

Some other had said that the reload take up 1 swing

It mean that if you have 2 attack 2 swing, you will be shooting 2-3 shot per round becasue you need 1-2 reload.

I dont like to use that weapon either so I had not much experience in that.
