Double Crossbow, Bolt Ace, and Crossbow Mastery:How they stack

[hector212121]

Could a Bolt Ace at level 11 pick up Crossbow Mastery and then start making iterative attacks with a Double Crossbow?

For that matter, do enchantments such as Bane or Flaming work on both bolts? Or maybe they only work if the bolt itself is enchanted?

I realized that at minimum expenditure but heavy feat investment, a level 11 bolt ace could easily open a battle against low-touch enemies with 6d8+6d6+36 damage if it works the way I feel it does.

read double crossbow. however minotaur double crossbow doesn't have the extra wording and is even legal in pfs if that's what you play

[hector212121]

What extra wording?

A level 11 Bolt Ace gets to reduce the load time of all crossbows by a step. Thus, doesn't it get pushed to a free action?

[vhok]

the level 11 ability, "a move action becomes a swift action"??

[hector212121]

Oh. Hrm. I guess you could only get off 2 double shots per turn, and that would only be every other turn.

...Unless you tossed Quickdraw or something like that into the mix, and your first turn was step in, fire, switch, fire, reload, fire.

as I said grab a minotaur double crossbow. its not listed on the weapons list but it is a legal weapon, even in pfs.

with rapid reload and crossbow mastery its a free action.

Minotaur double crossbow
Category:
weapon (ranged)
Description:
Exotic weapon – Minotaur double corssbow
1d8 19-20×2 range 100ft,18lb, piercing (300sp)
this heavy weapon fires a pair of iron tipped bolts with deadly accuracy. due to its size and weight, however, non-proficient wielders suffer a – 8 penalty on their attack rolls. even proficient wielders take a – 2 penalty on their attack rolls. If the attack is successful, the target takes the listed damage twice, although critical hits and precision based damage are only applied to one of the bolts. reloading a double crossbow takes 2 standard actions (one for each bolt), although the rapid reload feat reduces this to 2 move actions (meaning that it can be accomplished in 1 round).

Or just pay the cost of another +1 enchantment to get a Shadowshooting double crossbow.
