Point shooting (no ontology)

'''Point shooting''' is an ability, which consists in using a firearm in a manner that prioritizes speed over accuracy. 

Point shooting can be used with any weapon that would be considered a firearm (this excludes the [[List of Class 5 Weapons|Pen gun]] and the [[List of Class 5 Weapons|Fragmentalizer]]). When declared, a character using point shooting will draw and fire much more quickly than usual, and will not be using their weapon's sights or optics, instead relying on instinctive aiming. 

The effects of point shooting are as follows:
* [[Gameplay mechanics#Initiative Speed tiers|IS tier -1]] (Faster)
* '''Failure Threshold (FT) +1''' (Less accurate)
* Bonuses from weapon [[Weapon accessory#Optics|optics]] are '''negated''' ; the shooter is not using the sights.
** Additionally, abilities related to optics, such as [[Weapon accessory|Multiple Targeting]] and [[Concentrating]], cannot be attempted while point shooting, again because the shooter is not using the sights.
