How does the musket, axe interact with feats and enchantments?


Rules Questions


The title says it. If you enchant the musket, axe does it affect both the axe and the gun part? If you take weapon focus musket, axe does it count for both uses of the weapon?

The answer to this question either makes the weapon almost broken or not really that good.


The description states that it is considered a double weapon, so therefore you would need to create each part as masterwork (doubling the price) and enchant them separately. Weapon focus (musket) would apply only to the musket part, while weapon focus (axe) would work for the axe half.

Note, you could potentially create a weapon with a magical musket and a non-magical, non-masterwork axe. Or vice-versa.

Essentially, it is two separate weapons that happen to be attached to each other and should be treated as such.

I'm pretty sure a double weapon is still a single weapon for the purposes of Weapon Focus, but you still have to enchant each part separately.

I would also agree with this assessment. After all a Dwarven Urgrosh is both an axe and a spear and it only requires one Weapon Focus Feat.
