### **Notes**
|
||
|
||
The Spell Revolver is designed for spellcasters who can proficiently handle firearms and arcane focus items. Its versatility allows for the casting of a wide array of spells, though it restricts concentration spells and those with an XP cost. This weapon is ideal for tactical spellcasters who prefer mid-to-long-range attacks, but managing ammunition types and spell components is key to its effective use.

### Example Usage Scenario
|
||
|
||
In a critical moment of battle, a wizard proficient with firearms draws the Spell Revolver loaded with an Imbued Round containing *Magic Missile*. Firing at multiple opponents, the bullets split mid-flight, hitting different targets simultaneously. Later, the wizard uses a Blank round to cast *Ray of Frost*, slowing a charging enemy from a distance.
