Tidal Crossbow
A crossbow triggered by a sea hawk's beak and talons fires true underwater, hits harder than a normal bolt, and can shove a foe off balance.
The beak and talons of a tidehawk form the triggering mechanism of this +2 greater striking Crossbow. Its grip is constantly damp, though this doesn't affect your ability to keep ahold of the weapon. When used in aquatic combat, a tidal crossbow doesn't have its range increments halved. A tidal crossbow deals 1d4 additional bludgeoning damage on a successful Strike. On a critical hit, the bow's additional damage is instead 1d4 bludgeoning splash damage, and the target must succeed at a DC 31 Reflex save or be pushed back 5 feet. The bow critical specialization effect applies to creatures with the water trait even if it wouldn't normally.
Craft Requirements The initial raw materials must include the beak, talons, and several watery feathers of a Tidehawk.
