Description
Isn't it funny how it requires years and years of martial training in the longbow to be able to use it effectively, yet 90% of skyrim are masters at it's use and operation?

Crossbows revamped changes this. Crossbows, as guns would centuries later, revolutionized medieval warfare. Peasants could be quickly trained in their use and operation, unlike the use of longbows, which required years of training - and consequently higher costs.

Crossbows are now in the hands of the people you would imagine using them - Bandits and Soldiers. They are also more readily available at vendors around the holds. Their damage is increased in order to give more a feel of "If I get hit with this, it's probably going to kill me."

Huge amount of credit goes to DJjojo, who so kindly allowed me to use his models and textures in collaboration. Enjoy!


Updated 2.0:


- All of DJjojo's models implemented.
- Retexture of original crossbow to former blued-steel crossbow.
- Hopefully balanced damage rate increases. (+2 damage for each tier of crossbow, +1 for each tier of bolt.)
- Added to leveled lists of bandits, guards, imperial and stormcloak soldiers, as well as vendor lists.
- Removed iron bolts - redundant.
- 25% armor piercing applied to all crossbows.
- ACE Combat skills compatibility.

Recipes are also available for both fletching bolts and construction of crossbows.

Dawnguard Required!

Enjoy!

TL; DR___

- Adds Crossbows to the leveled lists of Bandits and Soldiers.

-Increase in damage - Crossbows are much more dangerous.

-Recipes added so they can be crafted in forges.

-Bolts and Low level crossbows available at vendors everywhere.

- New bolts and new crossbows available!

I can't seem to find the crossbows or bolts in any vendor's list. Is this a bug or was it fixed or is there something else?

I can no longer temper my crossbows. The dragon bone crossbow looks awesome!!!!!!

The damage on the bows goes up and down, up and down, up and down, the damage on the bows goes up and down, all day loong.

One minute my bow does 24 damage. I kill someone who has a bow, and look at hit on the ground, it does 37. Then look at my in my inventory, and it dos 37.

Yeah mod is broken. I like the idea behind it, especially the passive 25% armor pierce, because it only makes sense that all crossbows have armor piercing abilities considering that was their main purpose, to pierce the tin cans of seasoned knights so that even a child could kill them through the jerkin and chainmail without having to make an overely complicated and skilled shot through armors weak points.

The damage is fine when using the Crossbow Collection mod that your weapons come from, but for some reason your versions are broken.

With a further look into the damage it would appear that the damage displayed by the crossbows in your mod is infact the BASE damage of the crossbows, unaffected by archery skills, I dont have the skill to fix it but like the poster below me said, it seems like a simple thing to fix, so please fix it for us. :)

@valdrec yes, i looked at the esp file in the creation kit and the base damage is broken =( its fixed easy when you know how to use the creation kit

I'm fairly sure it's to do with this mod, but I thought it would be safe to check, are ordinary crossbows supposed to be higher base damage then the latter versions? I swear my ordinary crossbow is better than even Ebony.

Does this mod lower the base damage on the regular crossbow? I've got a few points into the overdraw perk, and my crossbow at this point only does 22 damage, while the elven longbow from Ishilmiel's LOTR weapons mod does 36 damage.
