22 Overview
33  
44 Muskets are two-handed ranged firearms with the highest per-shot damage in the ranged roster. Three of the four muskets scale with Precision; the Infantry Musket is the lone Agility outlier thanks to its bayonet F-attack. All deal Pierce damage. They occupy both hands, locking out off-hand pistols, and favor set-piece sniping and long-range engagements.

66 The current build exposes four muskets: one Uncommon baseline and three Rare/Epic named variants. One variant (Infantry Musket) can be purchased from the Tortuga Goods Seller for 1,000 Piastre, making it the only ranged weapon in the current build with a vendor-listed price.

88 Damage Type

1010 Every hit from this class lands as Pierce damage. Windrose sorts weapon damage into three types, Slash, Pierce, and Crude, and enemy defenses respond to each one differently. The same Pierce profile that tears through one foe can glance off another, so check what you are fighting before you lean an entire Precision build around a single damage type.

2020 Rare vs Epic Summary
2121  
2222 Every Rare/Epic weapon in this category shares the same scaling mechanics. Ascending a Rare variant at the Weaponsmith Workshop preserves the Rare effect and stacks the Epic bonus on top. The Reliable-line firearms in every class jump to Precision (S) or Agility (B) at Epic, which is the single largest scaling jump in the ranged roster.

3131 Typical Build
3232  
3333 Precision primary (three of four muskets). Long-range engagement favors standing-still shots, which the Buccaneer's Friend perk doubles down on, and patient reload management. Infantry Musket breaks the mould with Agility scaling and a bayonet F-attack, so Agility saber users can slot it in without respeccing. Every musket demands a Master's Tools stockpile for the upgrade bands.

3535 Ammunition and Reload
3636  
3737 Muskets consume Gunpowder like the rest of the firearm family, and their long reload cycle makes ammunition discipline matter more here than on any other ranged weapon. Reloading comes in two forms: an active reload on the reload key, and a passive reload that runs on its own after you fire the weapon dry, which lets you empty the barrel and swap to melee while it readies the next shot.
3838  
3939 The Reliable Musket shortens that cycle noticeably, so it can fire again well before a standard musket has finished reloading its first shot. Beyond crafting, the Infantry Musket is also sold by the Tortuga Goods Seller for 1,000 Piastre, the only ranged weapon in the current build with a listed vendor price.
