The Army Scythe

The The Army Scythe +1, also called the Light Crossbow of Speed, is a powerful light crossbow +1 with a faster speed factor and one extra attack per round, resulting in double the amount of bolts fired. To become proficient one must study the crossbow proficiency, except in classic Baldur's Gate, where one should specialize in missile weapons.
==Locations==
===Baldur's Gate===
The Thunderhammer Smithy sells this crossbow.  It's one of the most powerful crossbows in the game (along with The Guide, which adds more damage and THAC0 to projectiles, but has the normal rate of fire). Like many powerful weapons, it is also quite expensive.
===Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn===
Bernard in the Copper Coronet sells the weapon.  However, in the Underdark, there are Drow Crossbows of Speed available. They are +3 weapons and have better stats, but they will turn into adamantine dust when taken out of the Underdark.
