Ranged Disable
(General)
You can disable devices with ranged weapons.
Prerequisites
Far Shot,
Precise Shot,
Weapon Focus,
Disable Device 9 ranks.
Benefit
As a
Full-Round Action, you can attempt a
Disable Device check with a ranged weapon you have chosen with
Weapon Focus. You can use this ability against only a simple device (one that would normally take a
Full-Round Action to disable), and you can't use it if the device has any cover or concealment. This use of the ranged weapon deals no damage to the device, but it allows you to attempt a
Disable Device check instead. You treat the
Ranged Attack as if you were using tools inappropriate for the job, taking a -4 penalty on your
Disable Device check. You also apply any range penalty for the weapon to the
Disable Device check, but you do not gain any bonuses that would normally apply on attack rolls on the
Disable Device check.
