Fire Arrows (20) (5e Equipment)

Back to Main Page → 5e Homebrew → Equipment → Weapons

Cost: 5 gp. Weight: 2 lbs. This arrow can be lit before using it either by spending an action from a Tinderbox, or spending a free action from an open flame, such as a torch, a bonfire, or a burning tree. When lit, this arrow sets alight any highly flammable materials on impact, and does the normal attack damage from the base weapon plus an extra 1d4 fire damage to the target. It will continue to do 1 fire damage until an action or bonus action is spent to remove it. One of the disadvantages of using the fire arrows is that you lose any advantage when attempting a surprise attacks with it due to its clear visibility, even during night time.
