They are projectile weapons but they arent close enough to a bow or crossbow or firearm. I would say that all kind of slings, the spear throwers and flask throwers are projectile weapons, but they are in the thrown section because they way you use them is very close to throwing something with your own hands(specially the sling). 8) or a flask thrower (Gnomes of Golarian)?Īs you said, the core rule book and the weapon section in d20pfsrd () list the sling as a proyectile weapon, here are my thoughts: Is the difference "assisted" throwing, some kind of apparatus that helps throw the ammunition? If this is the case, then can you still use Close-Quarters Thrower if you are using a spear thrower (Adventurer's Armory, p. So how do we distinguish between Thrown and Projectile weapons? It is clearly not "can you add your strength to the damage" or "can you use the item in melee". The only place I see ranged weapons separated into Thrown and Projectile categories is in the Core Rulebook, and none of the slings introduced after that include this distinction. The double-sling is categorized as "Projectile, Thrown" and the sling glove is categorized as "Thrown." All other variations of slings are listed as "Projectile".

You do not provoke attacks of opportunity for making ranged attacks using the selected weapon." The Close-Quarters Thrower feat applies to a single "thrown" weapon: I'm building a Halfling slinger in Hero Lab, and I've run into an apparent contradiction.
