So I have a build idea for a combat drone for my mechanic I’m building. I wanted to try to incorporate him using a net along with his dueling sword.

Assuming I give him the proficiency to use said item, do I just install it as a weapon mount? Or do I need to get the manipulator arms so he can use it?

The other route would be building him to use the lesser shadow staff.

Manipulator arms will work, at a -4 penalty to the attack roll. So will a weapon mount, which will have no penalty, and the mount can hold up to 2 nets inside it.

What let’s it hold two nets with one mount? I’m drawing a blank.

Nets are 1-handed capacity Drawn ranged weapons, and Weapon Mounts can hold 2 ammunition for any 1-handed ranged weapon.

Neat! I guess I assumed it counted as a non ammo based weapon.
