Isger Fixer Trait and Exploding Firearms


Rules Questions


1 person marked this as a favorite.

So the trait Isger Fixer says that it ignores the penalties for the broken condition. Is one of those penalties the risk of an early firearm exploding after the broken condition is gained?

This is important as I am playing a mysterious stranger with no access to quick clear.


No, its the -4 to hit with the weapon.


Why minus 4. And does it explode? Does it increase the misfire penalty?

Isger Fixer will not help you prevent an exploded firearm. You just need a wand of mending.

How can a gunslinger use a wand of mending?

What I'm looking for is a way to repair guns (not through gun smithing or quick clear). I'm playing a mysterious stranger and not having quick clear sucks. If I roll a 1 in combat I have to stop using that gun

Use Magic Device. A friendly caster. Either of the those along with a Cracked Purple Prism Ioun Stone.

At 5th level you'll be able to ignore a number of misfires/day equal to your Cha bonus. Before then it's a good idea to have a backup weapon. Gunslingers can use bows, have full BAB and usually a decent Dex. Or you can use a sling if you want to play up your Halfling heritage.


Thanks redward. To add to the confusion I am playing a ninja/trench fighter so only 1 lvl dip of MS. Trying to do the whole Assassins Creed Cptn Kenway thing in a skulls/shackles campaign. It hard because as my dm said "kenway is a ninja, gunslinger, bard, fighter, ranger" [in the game].

Maybe I should move this to the advice section. Any suggestions PF masters out there?
