Please sell me on switching to bows instead of crossbows...

[BlueMike]

I've seen many people switching to bows, but can't really grasp why. Please elaborate for me ><

[mad9]

Maybe one probably has better damage & crappy aim, while the other has better aim & and weaker damage?


That's how it is with Clerics' mace and hammers. Some kind of stat trade off I'm assuming, with the archer bow and crossbow. People prefer certain weapon stats over another.

Bows are much faster than xbows

[BlueMike]

^ I don't classify .3 seconds as much faster though...

Thanks for pointing the accuracy problem out.. never would have noticed that

[Seraphor]

It's not an accuracy problem at all.


First of all, Archers have incredibly high Aim anyway, and secondly there's only 3 aim difference. The Bow has 76 aim and the crossbow has 73 aim, IIRC.

well im still lvl 22 but i got my hands on a unique bow which means stats imo stats > power adding to the suvivability of the archer but till i get a xbow with stats ima stick to my bow
