Any Repeating Crossbow Builds ?

[Offbrand.Human]

I really like the repeating crossbow, i was hoping the dlc was gonna add a official one handed crossbow (so u can dual wield) but i really like the repeating one, i just wish it had some way to scale or maybe there is and idk about it?

Maybe it's not a great idea, as every single ranged weapon focused build just can't compare to a melee or magic focused one

You could try scaling up arcane and using it as part of a status build. It's hard to make bows work by themselves, but as a tool to proc rot, sleep, or poison they're pretty good.

that makes sense, just wish it was a more viable strategy, i saw the new short bow, (bone Bow) is very similar to the black bow but the barrage on the bone bow is "heat seeking"

Lion Greatbow can still wreak havoc against big foes. So you can still use them has damage tools.

because they don't scale, you just need to get the minimum stats to use, and just get Vit, End, and Mnd to your heats desires and use bow buff talisman, ritual sword talisman, alexander shard,

No, viable ranged bow builds are useless. It's one of the game's biggest drawbacks, imo.
