A gnomish device, the flak repeater is a boxy gun shaped weapon with a trigger, loading mechanism, and "flak", shredded bits of hard metal, ball bearings, and other dangerous implements. For this reason the ammunition is treated as both piercing and slashing damage. The box contains a large amount of sealed gunpowder or other fuel. When the trigger is pulled, gears move a package of flak into place, and release a portion of explosive behind it, detonating immediately and sending the spinning package to its enemy. Because of the unaerodynamic shape of the shot, the range is pitifully short and inaccurate for a ranged weapon.
