Strength Ranged weapon


Advice


Hello,

Is it possible to take a feat or get some kind of class feature or even a magical item that allows you to use your Strength modifier on a ranged weapon attack instead of your Dexterity modifier? (such as Weapon Finesse but then the other way around.)

If not, is there then a feat, class feature or magic item that allows you to use your Dexterity modifier on a ranged weapon damage roll instead of your Strength modifier? (as Weapon Finesse but then ranged.)

If neither of these are possible, which one would you make highest?

Cheers,
Sorrol


Gunslingers get Dex to damage with some firearms at 5th level.
Probably not what you're looking for though.

And there isn't a way to get Strength to attack with ranged, that I know of.

What do you mean, "which one would you make highest"? Between Dex and Strength?

There's an option somewhere (maybe a magic item or a feat?) that lets you use Str for thrown weapon attacks.

Edit: Lesser Belt of Mighty Hurling . I think there are other options too, but I forget what they are at the moment.

Composite Bows, Slings, and all Thrown Weapons get Strength to damage.

Get the Adaptive enchantment on the composite bows.

He wants Strength to attack, not damage.
