Don't ask me why, but...


What is Xbow damage based on? I was assuming dex like bow but wasn't sure

Not sure what it's based on, but tried making a Xbow Armsman. Maxed dex, qui, crossbow skill. Barely had an effect on the damage (still very low).

Should be dex like it used to be on live. Go saracen if you wanna go xbowman

i believe its str/dex average.

Could be wrong.

BTW, i tested it in beta and its terrible.

I believe traditionally xbow for armsman was str..but I've seen dex online indicated as well...

Easy enough to test. Equip xbow, remove a +str item and see if WS changes...do the same for dex.

Why did they not give xbow and thrown weapons any abilities?

Crossbow damage should be 100% Dexterity just like longbow. However both crossbow and longbow needs a damage increase, especially crossbow. Crossbow should hit harder than a longbow, yet falls far short of a longbows damage. I’d also like to see some perks added to the crossbow line.

Well i played a xbow arms on 1.87 classic.

He had snap shot i think. It was kind of useful.

The real question is-- why is the xbow, which is slower than a bow-- speed 4?

I think xbow would be ok, i tested it in beta, if the xbows were craftable with a speed of 5.5
