Artillerist I (sage ability)

Artillerist I is an amateur-status sage ability in the study of Martial Discipline, which provides the ability to load, aim and fire ballista siege weapons

As well as the abilty to load and fire siege weapons such as catapults or trebuchets. The skill does not include, however, the ability to aim these latter engines, which requires an individual with the artillerist II sage ability. Typically, when part of a crew managing a large siege engine, persons with artillerist I are called "handlers." One point of martial discipline or artillerist I knowledge is sufficient to qualify as an "apprentice" with regards to the loading and firing of these engines.
