**Effect** The cord of the bola snakes out as you throw it, allowing the weapon to wrap around a group of enemies. You use the bolas to attempt a ranged [[Trip]] against all creatures in a 5 foot burst within the weapon's first range increment. Roll a separate Athletics check for each target. Each attempt counts toward your multiple attack penalty, but don't increase your penalty until you have made all the attempts.
