RANGED.COMBAT

Dexterity

 

You’re trained with a particular type of ranged attack, giving you a bonus to your attack checks with it equal to your skill rank. Each ranged attack is a separate Ranged Combat skill with its own rank, and encompasses a single weapon or power, although an array may be considered one power, at the Gamemaster’s discretion.

 

So a hero might have Ranged Combat (Guns) or Ranged Combat (Fire Control), but Ranged Combat (Powers) is too broad. Ranged Combat (Throwing) is an option and includes both thrown weapons and objects a character simply picks up and throws.

 

The bonus from a Ranged Combat skill applies only to attack checks with the particular attack, not to defenses. For a broader bonus to attack checks that is less than simply raising Dexterity rank, advantages can be earned.
